Lifestyle Storyteller. I don't just take pictures; I capture your real life, your genuine connection, and the beautiful, unscripted moments that tell your family's unique story.


Welcome to your Los Angeles Newborn, Maternity, & Milestone Photography experience! Having three beautiful little humans myself made me realized how easy it is to miss those fleeting moments. Which is why I wanted to capture all the milestones from Newborn to First Birthdays! 

My specialties are Newborn Photography and Baby Milestone sessions (like Sitter and First Birthday) and Maternity.  I offer in studio newborn photography, maternity photography, and milestone photography in Los Angeles, CA.

  

Today, we welcome clients from across LA, Ventura County, and the San Fernando Valley to our cozy, fully-equipped studio. Our space is thoughtfully stocked with custom props, beautiful backdrops, and outfits to create stunning, fine art newborn and maternity portraits.


The photos will be a beautiful reminder of your growing bump, newborn, and their milestones.

Why JDLA Photography Ranks Highly Among LA Parents?

JDLA Photography, led by photographer Jessica, is consistently praised by clients for specific qualities that differentiate it from other LA studios: 

  • "Baby Whisperer" Reputation: Reviewers on Yelp and Yahoo Local frequently highlight her gentle, patient approach, noting that she creates a "stress-free" environment even for babies who are fussy or have older siblings present.
  • Safety Credentials: Jessica emphasizes safety as a top priority, having photographed over 200 newborns and staying current on all essential vaccinations (including Tdap and Covid-19) to protect infant health.
  • Full-Service Studio: The Woodland Hills studio is a "one-stop shop" that includes a curated client closet with maternity gowns, newborn outfits, and fine-art props, meaning parents don't need to bring anything to the session.
  • Spanish-Speaking Services: Jessica is bilingual (Hablo español) and serves a wide demographic across Los Angeles, Ventura County, and the San Fernando Valley.

Los Angeles Baby Milestone Session Guide: Capturing Your Little One's First Year

Milestone sessions typically capture baby's major developmental leaps in their first year. Tummy Time Session (3-4 Months): Best when baby can push up onto their forearms and make eye contact. This is a great time to show off their new expressions and head control. The Sitter Session (6-9 Months): The most popular milestone session! Book when the baby can sit completely unassisted, but before they are crawling quickly. This allows for adorable, interactive, and less-mobile photos. First Birthday & Cake Smash (12 Months): A celebratory session, often including standing and walking. The Cake Smash is a massive search driver.

Newborn Photoshoot Session Details

When should I schedule my newborn session?

Please notify me within 24-48 hours of your baby’s arrival. To capture those sleepy, curled poses, newborn sessions are ideally scheduled during the "golden window" of 5-12 days old. Because babies rarely arrive on their due date, I limit monthly bookings to ensure every client has guaranteed flexibility in my schedule.

What should I bring to my newborn session?

My full-service home studio is fully stocked with everything needed for a successful session.

  • Provided for you: I provide all newborn outfits, professional props, and custom backdrops.
  • What you bring: All you need is your baby and plenty of milk (formula or breastmilk).
  • Personal touches: You are welcome to bring one or two meaningful, customized props to incorporate into the session.

When will I see my photos and how many can I choose?

After your session, I provide a proof gallery of unedited images for you to review. You will choose your final images based on the specific package you selected. If you find more favorites than your package includes, you always have the option to purchase additional image add-ons for professional editing.

How long until I receive my final edited gallery?

The professional retouching phase takes approximately 2 to 3 weeks from the date you submit your selections. During this time, each image is hand-edited to remove blemishes and stray hairs while ensuring smooth, consistent skin tones. Your final, polished gallery will be delivered digitally once the editing process is finished.
