Meet Paula — NYC Newborn Photographer
Hi, I’m Paula, a newborn photographer based in New York City with over 11 years of experience helping families preserve the most fleeting moments of their lives. I specialize in studio quality in-home newborn photography across Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens, bringing a full professional setup directly to your home so you never have to travel with your newborn.
My approach is calm, gentle, and baby led. Every pose is carefully considered to keep your newborn safe, comfortable, and cozy throughout the session. I bring everything needed: professional lighting, props, wraps, baskets, and accessories so all you have to do is enjoy the experience. The result is a timeless gallery of polished, beautifully lit portraits that feel both artistic and deeply personal.
From hobby to passion to profession
Photography started as my hobby, my quiet, special moment. Several years ago I made the decision to pursue it full time, leaving behind a different career to do work that truly fills me with joy. It was not an easy road, but it changed my life completely. I began teaching photography workshops (something I still do today) and eventually found my true calling in newborn and family photography.
For over eleven years I have been specializing in the earliest stages of a baby’s life, from maternity sessions through newborn, milestone, and first birthday photography. I have had the privilege of watching so many of my newborn clients grow into beautiful children, returning year after year to document their lives. There is nothing I love more than meeting families at one of the happiest moments of their lives.
