would 100% choose them again!

We couldn't be happier to have met and worked with Matt Cramer Photography. Matt and Jess made capturing this precious newborn phase with our firstborn child such a joy! From our arrival at their welcoming home studio to receiving our final product, Matt and Jess took excellent care of us and our babygirl. They have a genuine passion for their work and we were grateful for every considerate measure they take to keep their studio spotless and sanitized with a spa-like atmosphere for us to relax in as they seamlessly shot several looks of our gorgeous girl. We adored their perfect curation of wardrobe, props and accessories and loved that they included us in some behind the scenes magic, but took care of our girl as if she was their own throughout the whole entire shoot! The results speak for themselves; we can't speak highly enough of Matt and Jess who are both so talented in their respective roles. We would 100% choose them again for future sessions. Don't miss the opportunity to create precious, timeless memories of your family with Matt.

This photo means so much to us. This sweet girl is baby #2 for this wonderful family- and we’ve photographed them both! This time they drove all the way from Anaheim!  We always so honored when families come from so far to see us. 🙏

When mom asked if she could bring her wedding veil to the session, we weren’t sure how it would work, but we told her to bring it in and we’d see what we could do.
During the session, baby was so relaxed and sleepy, we decided to give the veil a try. We played around with it, and this shot ended up being our favorite. It felt so simple and sweet, and we love how it turned out.
Capturing their second baby felt extra special—there’s nothing better than watching families grow and being part of their story.

Q: Can we bring our own props to the session? 

A: We usually stick to the props we have here in the studio, but if there’s something really meaningful to you, let us know. We’re happy to look it over and see if it can be safely and beautifully included.

Matt Cramer Photography has been photographing newborns in Los Angeles for over 12 years. We focus on creating relaxed, stress-free sessions and timeless images that families will treasure forever. With more than 1,600 babies photographed, we’ve built a reputation for making every session feel special and easy for new parents.
