Simple  Newborn
 & Baby Photography 

houston baby Photographer

While the rest of my  photography is colorful and full of fun props, my  newborn  and baby sessions are intentionally simple. A clean white background, beautiful  window light, and genuine family connections keep the focus on what matters most: your growing family and your new little one.

We'll capture sweet moments of big siblings loving on their baby, parents cuddling their newest addition, and everyone settling into this exciting new chapter.

And there's absolutely no rush to schedule during those first few weeks!  While we can certainly photograph your baby as a fresh newborn,  a lot of my baby photos were taken when the little ones were around 2–3 months old, giving families time to rest and settle into their new routines.

We also skip complicated newborn poses that require babies to be deeply asleep. Traditional posed sessions can take several hours, but with our relaxed, natural approach, we can capture everything we need in about an hour! Your baby can be awake or asleep, comfortably lying on their back or snuggled in your arms.

"This was my daughter's first photoshoot experience for her half birthday and MaryKate made everything look so easy even when my baby was not being cooperative. She pulled out every trick to make her smile and we got all of the photos we needed. Very glad I found her. She is an expert at what she does"

"So much fun, oh my gosh. From our first email to the current day, we are so glad we hired Laguna - and now we know we're also going to be life-long friends."

Questions

1. Do we have to wear all white?

Nope! It's your photos, you can wear whatever you want! I would suggest everyone wearing solid colors though! Keep in mind if you have the kids wear something with their names/ big brother/little brother on it, that the words won't always be visible,  as the cutest photos are when the family is cuddled up so parts of their outfit will be covered. 

2. How old should the babies be for the photos?

 Any age 2 weeks + most of the photos shown are of babies 3 months old, so there's no rush to book if you want to take your time to settle in after your baby arrives. 

3. What's the turnaround time for the photos?

I will send you a watermarked gallery within 24 hours from your shoot, you'll choose the photos you'd like from there. You'll receive the finished edited photos 7 days after you've chosen them. If you need them earlier just check in with me before booking.

4. Can we do a different background?

Yes, I have tons of backgrounds feel free to reach out.
