There’s something truly special about photographing a brand-new baby in those first few days of life. As a San Diego baby photographer, I’m so lucky to meet families during one of their most joyful seasons—and little Halsten’s session was such a beautiful reminder of why I love what I do.

Halsten came to my cozy home studio in Carmel Mountain Ranch, just perfect at only a few days old. He had the softest little features and the most peaceful presence. Wrapped in warm neutrals and surrounded by soft textures, he settled right into every pose like a pro—sleepy, snuggly, and sweet as can be.

We styled Halsten’s session with a simple, timeless look that focused on all those tiny, perfect details: his fingers, toes, and the way his hair swirled just so. His parents were glowing with pride, and you could feel the love in every moment. It’s always such an honor to witness those early bonds forming—it’s more than a photo session; it’s a memory in the making.

My home studio is designed specifically for sessions like this. With 15 years of experience, I’ve created a calm, warm, and welcoming space where families can relax while I gently guide baby through each pose. Whether it’s your first baby or your fourth, every session is fully customized and focused on creating images you’ll treasure forever.

Halsten, you were a dream to photograph, and I’m so grateful your family chose me to capture your earliest days. These are the moments that go by in a blink—but with beautiful portraits, they can last a lifetime.

If you’re expecting and looking for a trusted San Diego baby photographer, I’d love to welcome you into my studio and help document your growing family.

With love,
Lisa
