Snuggles, Soft Wraps, and Pure Love: Newborn Photos in Martinez, CA

Welcoming Baby J — And Celebrating Big Brother SThere is nothing I love more than welcoming back families I’ve photographed before. Two years ago, I had the absolute joy of photographing big brother Sebastian as a newborn, and now I’ve had the honor of capturing his new role as proud big brother to sweet baby Julian. Repeat families truly fill my heart — watching your family grow is one of the best parts of this work.
Baby J arrived just in time for the coziest season, so of course we leaned into all things fall. Warm tones, soft textures, and a sprinkle of pumpkins made the perfect setup for this November baby. And with the holidays right around the corner, we added a simple, sweet Christmas setup to get this family ready for the upcoming season of celebration.
This session resulted in a very large gallery — over 120 images! Honestly, far too many favorites to choose from. Big brother  brought all the smiles, and baby slept like a dream, making it one of those sessions that just flows with ease and sweetness from start to finish.
A huge shout-out to Mom, who did an incredible job with wardrobe selection. The soft, coordinating tones photographed beautifully and created such a timeless look for their family portraits. Styling truly makes all the difference, and she nailed it!
If you’re expecting a baby in 2026, now is the perfect time to secure your session. Getting on the calendar early means one less thing to think about once your baby arrives — because we all know how wonderfully busy life becomes. The besttime to book your newborn session is during your second trimester.
I can’t wait to meet the new babies — and welcome back the wonderful families — who will walk through my studio doors in the year ahead.
Book your 2026 newborn session now and let future-you breathe a sigh of relief!
