Your kids are only this little once. The chubby wrists, the gap-toothed grin, the way your toddler still reaches for you in a room full of people. I built my Claremont studio to hold onto exactly those moments, before they quietly turn into something you only half remember.
If you've been searching for Claremont photography that feels less like a stiff appointment and more like a good afternoon with someone who gets it, you're in the right place.
My studio lives in the historic Old School House at 415 W. Foothill Blvd #138 (Next to Elvira's!) in Claremont, fully set up for newborn safety, wiggly toddlers, and parents who would love to actually sit down for more than five minutes.
We're about 30 minutes east of Los Angeles, so you get a true LA-caliber photographer without the LA traffic or the parking hunt. Families come to me from as close as Claremont, La Verne, San Dimas, Upland, Glendora, Rancho Cucamonga, and as far as Orange County and Los Angeles because the session is worth it.
The secret to photos you'll love is simple. Nobody has to perform. I blend gently guided posing with real, in-between moments, so your family looks beautiful and still looks like your family.
Brand-new babies set the pace, and so do I. As a Claremont newborn photographer, I keep these sessions slow, gentle, and built entirely around your baby's comfort and safety. We follow the feeds, the naps, and the sleepy stretches, and we capture every tiny detail while it's still this new. Ten little fingers. The squishy cheeks. The way they curl up like they're still tucked in close.
Kids don't take direction, and I stopped asking them to years ago. Family and child sessions are patient and child-led, in the studio or outdoors, designed to draw out the real expressions and personalities that make your family yours. The belly laughs, the shy smiles, the way your kids actually look at you. That's what ends up on your wall.
I've photographed Claremont families for more than 15 years, I'm an award-winning newborn and family photographer, and I'm a mom of four. So nothing your toddler pulls at a session is going to rattle me. I know how to read a room full of tired kids, find the calm, and come away with images that feel like the very best version of your everyday.
That experience is the difference between hoping for just one good photo and knowing you'll get collection full of them.
You're in the middle of one of the most beautiful, fleeting seasons of your life. Maybe you're feeling those first flutters and imagining who your baby will be. Maybe your arms are already full in the quiet hours of the night. Or maybe your baby isn't so little anymore, and you're watching them step into who they're becoming.
One day you'll miss the exact moments you're living right now. That's the whole reason I do this, and it's exactly what I'm here to help you hold onto.
