Meet Christina
As a child, the only portraits Christina had of herself were the awkward school portraits every year. Our family was never displayed on the walls of our home. It wasn't for lack of love, just that her single mother was too busy working multiple jobs and caring for five children...and before she knew it, Christina was off to college and married and starting a family of her own.
Christina's mission as a photographer became clear over a decade ago. To help her clients preserve their precious memories of their children & families and to celebrate every stage of a child's life and decorate her clients' homes with beautiful custom artwork of what is most important - FAMILY. Artwork that matters.
No matter what stage your child is in, there is no wrong time to have him or her photographed. We invite you to set up a time to meet with us for a portrait consultation to see how to create heirloom artwork for you and your family to enjoy.

Baby Milestone Photography FAQs
What is a baby milestone or cake smash photography session?
A baby milestone or cake smash photography session is a fun and memorable way to capture your baby's milestones and personality. These sessions typically take place when your baby is between 6-12 months old, and often include a special outfit, props, and of course, a smash cake! It's a wonderful way to create lasting memories of your baby's first year.
When is the best time to schedule a baby milestone or cake smash session?
We recommend scheduling your baby milestone or cake smash session when your baby is between 6-12 months old. This is the perfect time to capture their unique personality and adorable milestones, like sitting up or crawling.
Most client book their baby's first birthday portraits for when their baby is between 11 - 13 months old. If you would like to have your baby's cake smash/first birthday images on display at their first birthday party, we suggest booking earlier.
What should my baby wear for the session?
We recommend dressing your baby in comfortable, stylish outfits that reflect their personality and style. For cake smash sessions, we typically provide a special outfit or a diaper cover that is perfect for getting messy.
Can I bring my own props or decorations for the session?
Absolutely! We encourage our clients to bring any props or decorations that they'd like to incorporate into the session. Whether it's a favorite toy, a special blanket, or a custom backdrop, we'll work with you to create a session that reflects your unique vision.
What happens if my baby doesn't want to smash the cake?
That's okay! Not all babies love cake, and we're prepared for that. We'll work with you to create a fun and relaxed environment for your baby, and we'll capture their adorable expressions and milestones whether they're smashing cake or not.
How long does a baby milestone or cake smash session typically last?
Our baby milestone and cake smash sessions typically last around 1-2 hours. This gives us plenty of time to capture all of your baby's adorable expressions and milestones, while also allowing for breaks and clean-up time if needed.
How much is a baby milestone or cake smash session?
At booking, we require a session fee to reserve the date which covers the session in our studio in Lemoore, CA, the use of backdrops, props & outfits and the artistic editing of images. Additional fees may apply depending on the complexity of your desired cake smash setup. At the ordering appointment 1-2 weeks after the session, you get to see your portraits for the first time, choose your favorite ones and purchase a package based on that. As a luxury photography studio, our packages include high-end, museum-grade products, like albums, canvases, and acrylic canvases, as well as digital images. For specific pricing please give us a call or submit the form above.
When will we receive our baby's photos?
After your baby's milestone or cake smash session, I'll spend 1-2 weeks editing and retouching the images to ensure they look their best. Once the editing is complete, we'll schedule an in-person ordering appointment (also known as a "session premiere") where you'll see all of your images for the first time. During this appointment, we'll go through each image together and select your favorites, and I'll help you choose the best way to display your artwork, whether it's in a beautiful album or as a framed print for your home. This is a fun and collaborative process, and it ensures that you end up with high-quality prints and products that you'll love for years to come.
Do you offer payment plans?
We understand that there are a lot of expenses that come with having a new baby, so we offer interest-free in-house payment plans for up to 6 months, or payments with AfterPay.
