Maternity Details:

Motherhood wardrobe is provided for client use. There are several gowns available featuring sizes small to extra large. Colors also include pastels, jewel tones, and even neutrals. The best time to photograph your baby bump is when you’re around 29 - 34 weeks along. Pregnancy portraits are best photographed at sunrise or sunset, unless you select a studio appointment, as this is when the light is most beautiful and flattering to the pregnant silhouette. Studio appointments look best in the early afternoon, such as 1:00 p.m. Your spouse and children are also welcome to participate, as well as family pets, if you prefer, as I recognize that animals are family, too. The studio is located at 4550 Post Oak Place Drive. They want to see which looks you like best.

Newborn Details:

Newborn sessions occur in Sarah’s studio six days per week during the following hours. The studio is located at 4550 Post Oak Place Drive. Newborn sessions are studio only and do not occur in the home or hospital. During these sessions, we focus on capturing the unique features and early moments of your newborn, including their first smiles, yawns, and stretches.

• M-F from 9:00 am - 4:00 pm

• Saturday: 8:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.

• For your comfort, newborn sessions are best photographed in the first 14 days of life, with our preference being 5-9 days old for the best results. We understand that every baby is unique, and we happily offer extended scheduling for little ones who spent time in the NICU or missed the traditional newborn time window. Baby milestones can modify sessions to fit the baby’s age. Nevertheless, newborn sessions are best photographed as early as possible. Your baby is sleepy, curly, mold-able, and can be safely posed into those squishy, oh-so-precious poses in which all their serene sleeping selves and squishy rolls are showcased!

Baby Milestone Photography for Little Sitter and 12 Months

Baby milestone sessions showcase the new milestones your little one is hitting, such as standing up, crawling, clapping their hands, and simply being charming! These sessions are designed to be flexible and can be modified to fit the baby's age and developmental stage. Read more information about Houston Infant Baby Portraits.

When your precious baby is around seven months old, you’ll visit for their little sitter session! I will provide all their outfits and props, just like the newborn session, and ensure everything matches! That way, when you hang the photos on the wall, your collection is cohesive in shooting style, props, editing, and, of course, the final look of the professionally edited image. Don’t worry—I tell you where to print your photos, so they look fantastic!

At 12 months old, you will visit again! Like all of your other sessions, The studio will provide all props and styling. Expect us to capture the spirit of your little one! Each child is adorable, captivating, sweet, often energetic, and fearless. During our time together, we will play while allowing the apple of your eye to be who they are. Sessions are very laid back. I have four young children (The Tiny Tribe of Wild Women and Chief Jack) and can confirm little ones want to connect and feel special.
