Natalya was the perfect newborn photographer for us. I wanted just a handful of professional photos of our newborn girl with one or two family shots. Her newborn package was very affordable and very flexible. Her administrator, Jasmine, was prompt and professional with her correspondence, really easy to work with. When we arrived early for our photoshoot, Natalya was ready for us. She had a waiting room with water and snacks for my husband and toddler. Inside, her studio was fully stocked with gorgeous swaddles, outfits and props. She was really experienced and handled my baby amazingly. Shes

After searching a bunch of photographers for quality images last minute because my other photographer cancelled I found Natalya. She squeezed us in within days and Natalya was so great! She was so good with our little peanut! She was calm, patient, she gave her her bottle when needed, she was almost better with my baby that I was as a new mom haha. Studio room was warm enough baby to sleep and be changed or naked and was happy! Photos turned out amazing we highly recommend Natalya!!!

Natalia's studio was very clean and set up comfortably for a newborn. She has a huge variety of outfits and backgrounds for every need, the room was extremely warm and my newborn did not cry or feel uncomfortable once. Natalia was professional, and she definitely sensed when the baby was about to expire and prioritized quickly. She was very good with my toddler and coordinating his poses while next to the newborn! She listened to what it is we looked for and focused on and delivered that and more! 5/5 recommended .

What can I say; Natalya is amazing at her craft!! Watching her work and move so fluidly and gently when shifting our little man into different poses was like watching art in motion. She has so many different colors, props and outfits to use there is no lack of ability to be as creative as you would like for such a shoot. My husband and I felt very comfortable during the session. I would highly recommend Natalya for your newborn photo shoot.

Great experience with Natalya - she captured our baby girl so beautifully. Extremely professional and was so gentle with our little one. We had our finished photos back sooner than expected. Would highly recommend and will be using her for future shoots :)

I recommend My Newborn Beauty photography to any parents who want some adorable pics of their newborns and beyond. Make sure you go prepared to be wrangled into having your picture taken with your newborn if it wasnt a part of your plan for pics. However I was not and the pics she took of me sans makeup and hair styling were some of my favorites.
Natalya is a highly skilled photography and will work magic with your newborn or older baby. My daughter was a month old and she kept her asleep for the whole season and was able to manipulate her little hands and such as you would be able to with
