Why Choose Christina Mae Photography for Your Newborn Session?

Welcoming a new baby into your family is one of the most meaningful seasons of your life — and choosing the right newborn photographer matters. At Christina Mae Photography, I create a relaxed, guided, and timeless experience so you can focus on soaking in these fleeting moments while I preserve them beautifully.

Whether you’re looking for a cozy in-home lifestyle session or a classic studio newborn session, my goal is to make the experience stress-free, personal, and unforgettable.

A Calm, Baby-Led Experience

Newborn sessions are never rushed. Your baby’s comfort and safety always come first. With over 10 years of experience and photographing over 1500 newborns, I understand how to gently soothe, pose, and work around your baby’s needs throughout the session.

Every session is baby-led, allowing time for feeding, comforting, and cuddles whenever needed.

Professional studio

My studio is comfortable and accommodating. It is located in the heart of downtown Puyallup - just a few blocks from the Washington State Fairgrounds. It offers an area for chil dren to play and watch movies and there's always cold water on hand. I want my clients to feel right at home.

Timeless Editing That Never Goes Out of Style

I believe your newborn photos should still feel beautiful 20 years from now. My editing style is soft, clean, and timeless — focused on natural connection, genuine emotion, and true-to-life tones instead of trendy filters.

Your images will feel warm, emotional, and classic for generations to come.

simplicity

My style is very simple with minimal props and setups that make baby the focus. I love using warm, neutral tones and soft colors to produce a natural, beautiful look.

Convenience

I don't require any additional purchases to obtain your images. No coming back to the studio for ordering appointments or having to choose the images you'd like printed. I give my clients a full release to print their photos as they wish. The photos are delivered in an online gallery that includes the full size images that can be blown up to poster size. I don't put any restrictions on the images because after all, they are yours and I believe that you that you should be able to do what you want with them.

I offer both posed studio newborn sessions and relaxed in-home lifestyle newborn photography throughout the Seattle and Tacoma areas.
