This is one of our all time favorite shots. The eyelash macro. Swoon!
Sweet baby Jordan was a rockstar during his mini swaddle session!
We got through so many adorable swaddled set ups and yes, we always include macro shots too in our mini swaddle sessions!
FAQ: What’s the best time for newborn photos?
The best time for newborn photos is between 9–17 days old. This is the sweet spot where baby is still quite sleepy and usually snoozes through the entire session. If your baby is past this timeframe, don’t fret! We can still capture beautiful images—just give us a shout and I’ll send you all our information on our newborn sessions in our cozy, Burbank home studio.
We’re Matt Cramer Photography, a Los Angeles-based husband and wife team specializing in newborn and baby photography. With over 14 years of experience and more than 1,600 babies photographed, our style is classic, natural, and timeless.

Loving these sibling shots! Big brother so totally dapper! Was not that long ago that we did his newborn photos too!
Love watching our clients grow their families! @morganhsuzuki your sweet boys! 🤍
We’re Matt + Jess, a husband-and-wife team in Los Angeles. For the last 12 years, we’ve photographed over 1,600 babies in our home studio. Families come to us for a relaxed experience and classic newborn portraits that never go out of style.
Q: How do you get siblings to take photos with the new baby?
We keep sibling photos short, fun, and pressure-free. That said, it really depends on the child—sometimes they’re all in, and sometimes they want nothing to do with baby (especially ages three and under, where it’s about a 50/50 chance).
Sessions start with about an hour of newborn-only poses, so we recommend having someone take siblings out or keep them busy during that time. Once baby shots are done, we’ll bring siblings back for family photos and a few sibling + newborn images if it feels safe and they’re up for it. We usually give this about 30 minutes and won’t push if it’s not working.
After their turn, it’s best if siblings head home or out for an activity—newborn sessions are long and warm. Families often have Dad, grandparents, or a caregiver take them to Verdugo Park, Chandler Bike Path, or Romancing the Bean nearby.

Matt Cramer Photography specializes in classic newborn and baby photography in Los Angeles. With over 14 years of experience and 1600+ babies photographed, Matt and Jess are known for creating a calm, stress-free experience while capturing the sweetest moments for families to treasure forever.
Q: Can siblings be included in the newborn session?
A: Siblings three years old and over can be included in newborn sessions. We like to remind parents that while we always try to capture great sibling shots, at the end of the day it will really depend on what the little ones are game for. Sibling shots can be great when they work, but we like to stress that they are not the main focus of our newborn sessions.

FAQ
Do you provide props?
Yes! Our studio is fully stocked with hand-selected props, wraps, and outfits in soft, neutral tones.
When should I book a newborn session?
Most families book in their second trimester. We photograph babies within the first 8-17 days of life for the sleepiest poses. But if your baby has already arrived, always send an email because sometimes we have last-minute sessions!
Where are you located?
We’re based in Burbank, serving families from all over Los Angeles, including Pasadena, Glendale, Studio City, Sherman Oaks, Valencia, San Gabriel Valley, and beyond.

Oh sweet Mia! You stole our hearts! The second baby for this beautiful Los Angeles family and we could not be more happy for them!
And the best part? They ordered an heirloom album for themselves, and two grandparent brag books for each of the grandmothers!
FAQ: How do I view and select my photos?
About 2–3 weeks after your session, you’ll receive an online proofing gallery with the best images from your session. From there, you’ll choose your favorites to be fully retouched and delivered as high-res digital files.
