Timeless portraits for your baby's first days, based in Brentwood
San Francisco Bay Area Newborn Photographer
Newborn Galleries and pricing
Congratulations on your new baby! As a newborn photographer in the Bay Area, I know that there’s nothing sweeter or more innocent than a new-to-the-world baby. There’s magic in every tiny nose, crinkle, yawn, stretch, and eyelid flutter!
My baby photography style focuses on your little bundle of joy with soft, natural images and elegant props. From the first few days to their most memorable milestones, we can help you remember it.
I provide in-studio or in-home newborn photography sessions for my clients where I take plenty of photos of baby alone and also with family. I love getting all the tiny baby details and all the snuggles.
Timeless newborn portraits made simple through gentle guidance, thoughtful planning, and years of hands-on newborn experience.

I'm SO happy you are here! Getting to know each other is important. Take a look around and feel free to browse through my work. I have all the wraps, outfits, props, and studio equipment ready for your session. Before booking, we’ll have a thorough consultation to discuss all your questions and specific goals to ensure your experience is personalized and seamless. We always begin with the end product in mind. Together, we'll create timeless images and art products that you'll cherish forever. I aim to make every session relaxed and enjoyable, allowing your baby’s unique personality to shine through. Your comfort is a top priority, and I’m here to make sure you feel confident every step of the way.
STEP 1. Say Hello
STEP 2. officially book your session
To officially book your newborn portrait session, a signed contract and a $200 retainer is required to reserve your session. When those items are completed, you are officially booked! To completely understand your wants, we encourage you to book a phone consultation. A questionnaire is required to get an idea of what you are looking for. We will choose the colors of wraps, the outfits, and any props at this time. I take a limited number of sessions each month, so it is best to book early. To get those cute, curly poses, it is best to book when your baby is 5 - 15 days old.
If you are including family photos also, we will discuss wardrobe. You will also be given a wardrobe guide so that all of the photos and art work blend together well. We even have dresses available that are geared for postpartum mamas to wear.
STEP 3. plan your session
After your initial phone call, we will go over every detail of your session to ensure a truly personalized experience. When you book with us, we always begin with the end in mind, focusing on how you want to preserve these precious moments. First, choose the type of session that you prefer. It can be a studio session or an in-home session.
Newborn sessions last approximately 2 - 3 hours. This allows time for feeding, soothing, and diaper changes.
For the Classic Newborn session, we’ll capture timeless portraits of your baby, using delicate wraps, charming outfits, baskets, or other props, showcasing their sweetness in a variety of poses.
The Newborn Family session brings the whole family into the frame, allowing parents and siblings to join in, creating heartwarming images of love, joy, and connection as you celebrate this new chapter together. If you are including family photos, we will discuss wardrobe. You will also be given a wardrobe guide so that all of the photos and art work blend together well. We even have dresses available that are geared for postpartum mamas to wear.
4. the big day!
Our session will be relaxed and comfortable. Baby's safety and comfort is my #1 goal. I will guide you, so you won't wonder what to do. Sessions are baby led.
You really don't have to bring much for your baby's session. Bring baby in loose fitting clothing. Also, bring food for baby, diaper, and wipes. We have the wraps, outfits, hats, and headbands which are carefully curated to photograph well. Time is allowed for feeding, changing, and snuggling your baby. Expect the session to last approximately 2 -3 hours.
Special family heirlooms can be included in the session.
STEP 5. Enjoy your beautiful works of art!
Within two weeks of your session, we will meet for a viewing and ordering session where final decisions will be made. We will help you sort through the images and decide what would look best in your home. We offer archival quality prints, exquisite wall art, custom heirloom albums, gifts and so much more.
You will receive your digital images the next day after the ordering appointment. Any product orders will take 2-3 weeks.
No need to pick up your products, they will arrive at your home.
I'm here to help you all the way!
mommy and daddy's little cutie!

Baby Rylan was so sweet and content during her session. At Mom's request, I prepared a happy, sunny yellow theme. I was so happy Rylan cooperated for her session!

There's nothing quite like a newborn session filled with sweetness, and this little guy was the sweetest! He was an absolute dream to work with-calm, content, and endlessly photogenic. We had so much fun mixing classic poses with playful, imaginative props, watching him transform into a tiny astronaunt and into a pilot the next. Sessions like this are exactly why we do what we do.
Diane is artistic and captures amazing shots. We are so incredibly pleased with the photos that Diane took of our newborn baby girl. Diane went beyond our expectations - we were not expecting all the different poses and options, and we're delighted with the results. We always felt she was mindful of our baby's comfort and safety as well. Diane is warm and friendly and easy to get along with; she is clearly a photographer because she delight in capturing important moments artistically. Sheilagh
"Diane went beyond our expectations."
We absolutely love our newborn photos! Diane was extremely professional, kind, and patient with us during our newborn session. We had an in home session. We took posed newborn photos with the props, wraps, and headbands Diane brought., and we also took family photos in the nursery and room. We got so many great shots! As a new mom, I was nervous about a newborn session. You just don't know how the baby is going to be. But Diane put us at ease, she was so patient with us and our baby.
Diane put us at ease; she was so patient with us and our baby.
I was referred to Diane through a friend of a friend to do my newborn son’s photos. I was very thrilled with how quickly she responded from the very start and how communicative she was and that she checked in with me (preggo & mom brain made me very forgetful). I contacted her while I was still pregnant and then after I had my baby to set up his photo shoot and she was so helpful with giving information and answering all my questions. We decided to do our session in home because that was easier with a new baby. She came with so many options for props and backgrounds! It was so wonderful.
"I would highly recommend her!"
My family and I loved working with Diane. She took such outstanding photos of my newborn that we went back months later for our Christmas card photo as well. Diane was very professional and I appreciated how quickly she gave me our photos. I would highly recommend her for your family.
"My family and I loved working with Diane!"
