Your baby is only this tiny for so long. Moreover, as an experienced New Jersey newborn photographer, I want you to sit back and relax –maybe even take a nap–while I take care of everything for you during your baby’s first portraits.
Your most precious love story
There is no purer love than the love you feel for your baby, and nothing compares to that instant connection you experience at first sight. Although the days may feel long, the years slip by in the blink of an eye, and you pour pure love into every fleeting moment. Moreover, a baby is a miracle—a living, breathing embodiment of love that is truly inexplicable. Naturally, this love is overwhelming in the best way, making your heart feel as though it could burst with joy. However, those first hours and days often feel like a blur, and the memories can fade all too quickly. Therefore, I am here to capture the beginning of your family’s purest love story, so you can treasure these moments for all time. As an NJ newborn photographer, I carefully preserve these fleeting first moments, allowing you to carry them with you always.
“We recently had our newborn session with Sofia, and capturing these precious first moments of our daughter’s life wouldn’t have been the same without her incredible talent and warm personality.”

“We had the pleasure of Sofia doing our newborn’s photos and can’t recommend her enough! She has figured out ALL the details. Not only are her shots incredible, but the care that she puts in to handling our tiny baby really put us at ease. We are first time parents and are probably overprotective, but she really is amazing. The way she goes above and beyond to make sure parents are comfortable is magnificent.”

*Hair & MUA referrals available upon booking for moms.
You should reach out to book your session around the 20 week mark to ensure availability for your due date. As babies’ arrivals are always unpredictable, we reserve your due date on our calendar to be able to accommodate for your baby’s session accordingly.
Newborn sessions take place ideally between the 10-14 day mark post birth, given normal delivery and no NICU stays. Please reach out if you have concerns regarding this time frame.
Newborn sessions can always include parents and siblings.
My studio is fully stocked to accommodate for mom and baby’s wardrobe needs. I have wardrobe, prop, and background options which we go over thoroughly before your session in the planning phase. All of my newborn outfits are sized to fit this fresh phase after birth.
As a first time Mom, I was nervous about how my newborn would be during a photo session but Sofia’s a pro & baby whisperer and created an environment where the baby was relaxed and safe and I was at ease. All I had to bring was milk and diapers, Sofia provided the rest. I’m so happy we have those printed photos. I get emotional when I look at them because my daughter was only that little for such a short amount of time. Sofia is extremely talented, professional, considerate and her product is of the highest quality. I highly recommend Sofia!

All of our children have been photographed by Sofia and I can’t recommend her enough. She has such dedication to the entire process, from pre-shoot where she discusses what we want, colors, outfits, ideas, etc. The photoshoot was so effortless and smooth from the parent’s side. She worked so hard to make sure our babies were safe. Getting toddlers to cooperate is exhausting and can be at times overwhelming but with our last kid, she was able to get the four and two year old to do everything they needed to, and we could just relax knowing that she had it all under control.

Where to begin! Booking Sofia for our newborn photo session was the best decision. We had a blast at our session and the photos came out better than we could have expected. Sofia is responsive, professional and warm, an excellent photographer who is a baby whisperer of sorts – expert at posing, handling and calming a newborn while keeping in mind infant safety. We received so many compliments on our baby’s newborn photos and loved the images so much we ended up purchasing large wall art. I could not recommend her more highly! We will certainly be back.
If this feels like a good match, inquire below. Let’s create a relaxing and beautiful newborn photography experience to celebrate your baby. To ensure availability, I encourage expectant moms to reach out around the middle to end of their 2nd trimester. Therefore, newborn sessions take place at our north/central New Jersey newborn photography studio before baby is 2 weeks old.
