I love doing first birthday sessions. Watching all of the newborn babies I photographed grow during their first year.
During our first birthday sessions we do some traditional pictures first before we get to the cake!
Katy cake smash photographer
I love cake shots! She picked up the whole cake and ran with it! It was the BEST! Not all little ones want to eat the cake and it’s ok. Some just stick their hands in the cake and play and they make beautiful photos.
Zoey loved the cake. She ate a good chunk of the cake. We put chocolate sauce on the top and then she really loved it.
Little bit of bubble blowing always makes the best smiles! Daddy blew lots of bubbles and it made for perfect pictures! This is before she devoured the cake and got all messy.
Aren’t her pink overalls the best!? MJ does provide the cake and decor for the cake smash sessions. You just need to provide your vision during our consultation and I will do the rest for you!
Bubbles, overalls, and cake! Look how perfect she is. I can’t wait to see these on the wall!
I am obsessed! I cannot wait to see these on the wall! They will match brothers perfectly.
As an experienced beach photographer, I am dedicated to capturing the essence and beauty of coastal landscapes. With a deep passion for the ocean and all it has to offer, I have honed my skills in capturing the perfect moment amidst the sand, surf, and sunlight.
Using a combination of technical expertise and artistic vision, I strive to create stunning images that transport viewers to the tranquil shores of sun-kissed beaches. Whether it’s a breathtaking sunset casting warm hues across the horizon or the playful splashes of water against a backdrop of crashing waves, I am adept at capturing the natural elements that make every beachscape unique.
In addition to capturing landscapes, I also specialize in beach portraits, immersing individuals or families within the picturesque scenery. I understand the importance of ensuring my clients feel comfortable and relaxed during the shoot, as it allows me to capture their genuine expressions and emotions in a way that reflects their connection to the beach environment.
As a beach photographer, I am passionate about capturing the joy, love, and happiness that the beach invokes. I am dedicated to creating timeless images that my clients can cherish for a lifetime. Whether it’s a romantic couple session, a fun family gathering, or a milestone event, I am here to provide an exceptional and personalized photography experience.

When it comes to capturing the little moments of your newborn’s life, safety is always on parents mind. I know that you want to make sure your little one is in safe hands during their photography session.
To ensure the safety of your newborn during a photography session, here are a few things you should look for in a photographer:
• Make sure the photographer is experienced in newborn photography. Ask to see their portfolio.
• Choose a photographer who is comfortable working with newborn babies. They should know how to handle a newborn in a gentle and safe way. • Make sure the studio or in home studio is sanitary. The photographer should also know how to safely position the newborn so they do not ever get hurt. Ask about composites 🙂
• Ask the photographer about their safety protocols. They should also have a plan in place for any potential emergencies.
• Make sure all props used during the session are clean and safe for the baby. The photographer should also be knowledgeable about the safety of any props used during the session.
Hiring a newborn photographer is one of the best ways to capture the fleeting moments of your little one’s life. Whether you’re looking for timeless photos of your newborn or a more stylized newborn shoot, hiring a professional photographer is the way to go.
Here are a few reasons to hire a newborn photographer:
• Professional Quality Photos: A professional photographer has the expertise and experience to capture beautiful and timeless photos of your newborn. They will be able to capture the best angles and lighting to make sure each shot is just perfect.
• Safety: A newborn photographer has the experience and knowledge to handle a newborn in a gentle and safe way. They will also be able to position the baby in a way that is comfy.
• Customized Sessions: A professional photographer can customize the session to exactly what you like. They will be able to work with you to create the perfect backdrop and props for the newborn shoot.
• Stress-Free Experience: A professional photographer will take care of all the details so you don’t have to do anything! Most even have hair and makeup (like me) They will be able to handle the setup, lighting and posing so you can relax and enjoy the experience with your little one.
Newborn photography is such a joy. I love photographing little ones very first portraits. I typically photograph newborn babies around 7-17 days. If you photograph newborns less than a week old, sometimes their little tummies are still getting used to milk and cannot settle. On the other hand when you go over two weeks old, the little ones start waking up a little more and tend to settle less. So I love capturing them in studio between those times!
The sweetest little bear! He went to make a little smile and I just got giddy! He’s so perfect.
Mommy loves stuffies…so of course we included lots of dress up animals!
Which is your favorite? I can’t pick and neither could mom and dad! Newborns with little bonnets are my favorite. Katy newborn photography studio – MJ
Mommy and daddy were included in some of PJ’s portrait. I love when parents get into the newborn photos! They grow so fast, you have to capture it while you can.
Also Hair and Makeup is included for momma! It is such a special treat to get your hair and makeup done professionally. Especially when you are so tired.
Black and white or color? I think I tend to lean towards the black and white!
