She was able to accommodate us at the last minute, which we truly appreciated, and she came to our home making the session incredibly comfortable and stress-free for our daughter and us! Michelle handled our baby with extreme care and patience, and she managed to keep her calm and content throughout the entire session. The photos turned out absolutely beautiful and captured our daughter so perfectly. Michelle is truly a baby whisperer as well as an excellent photographer. We would highly recommend Michelle to anyone looking for newborn photography

Michelle is amazing! I found her on Yelp for newborn photoshoot and I'm so glad we went with her…read more Not only is she professional, kind, and responsive, she's also a baby whisperer. With her seven years of experience, I could tell my newborn was in good hands right away. Her patience and ability to work with newborn babies is truly a talent! Prior to meeting, I had communicated with Michelle on Yelp and inquired her different packages, then signed a contract and paid a $50 deposit. Everything was pretty smooth and easy. The three packages are on her website, either basic, signature, or premium, and we went with the middle package - the signature, which was perfect for us. The middle package had 4 poses, swaddled, family included, and we received 50 photos! Fast forward to photoshoot morning - we followed directions to have baby fed and changed into a diaper by the time of her arrival. My son was 13 days old when she took photos in our home. She came with her props, accessories, and baskets all prepared! Michelle also brought a sound machine that had white noise playing to soothe the baby. She swaddled my son and every photo pose/ setup increased in difficulty but she was really patient and worked with my son who almost was so fussy he'd wake! I enjoyed that she brought different colors for swaddles and blankets and various types of hats for us to choose from. Furthermore, if you're like me and your home is a mess, don't worry! Michelle will make it work and she will decide which room has the best lighting for her photos. She'll need about 5ftx5ft of space at least! Michelle delivered our gallery in a blink of an eye. Literally got an email about images being ready within 3 days of the shoot. I loved every image!! My son had baby acne and dry skin peeling at the time and she let me know that if I chose 10 photos, she would retouch them and she did! Overall my husband and I are loving our photos and highly recommend Michelle. You will NOT be disappointed. I'm so thrilled I have beautiful images of my son captured when he was only two weeks old. Memories to last a lifetime! Thanks Michelle!

Her work stood out immediately with the beautiful variety of outfit options and props she offers. Booking the session was super easy. Her website was clear, informative, and made it simple to browse packages and make selections. We originally had a date scheduled, but Kassandra was incredibly accommodating when we needed to shift it around to fit our baby's arrival. Communication was smooth and responsive via text, which made the whole process stress-free. The session itself (on September 10th) was such a great experience. The studio was warm and cozy--perfect for a newborn. Kassandra was so patient and gentle with our baby girl. She clearly knows how to soothe little ones and handled all the outfit changes and props like a pro. Despite how much we got done, we never once felt rushed. There were tons of props and outfits to choose from, and Kassandra helped us select combinations that matched our style perfectly. Best part? We received our proofs that same afternoon, and all our selected images were fully edited by the next morning. Such an impressive turnaround and the photos were absolutely beautiful! Highly, highly recommend booking your newborn session with Kassandra. She's talented, professional, and made the entire experience seamless and memorable.

Sandy is truly one of the most skilled newborn/family photographers in the bay area! I was lucky to…read morefind Sandy 4 years ago with my first born and the newborn photos ended up being incredible! It was an easy decision to go back to her with our second baby. Here are some of the ways that Sandy truly stood out: - Both our babies were born around Christmas holiday and scheduling was not an issue at all for Sandy. She checked in ahead of the appointment to ensure we didn't need to reschedule (much needed for parents that just gave birth recently) and had our themes ready prior to us arriving. - The themes were 10/10, better than what we could've envisioned ourselves. And our themes were generic such as lemon or Christmas. - The amount of patience Sandy has is seriously amazing! Our second baby was a bit harder to photograph compared to the first, in addition to a toddler who wasn't in the mood for pictures, and it didn't phase Sandy at all. She took her time to make sure she was able to capture each theme well and had tips up her sleeve to get the toddler to take some pictures. I highly recommend going with Sandy if you're considering photo sessions! She goes above and beyond to ensure all the special moments are captured and the pictures are so incredibly worth it.

I'm truly delighted to share my experience working with Sandy!

I am really impressed by her talent with infants and children; she was fantastic with my newborn and my 2-year-old. Her ability to craft stunning scenes is also incredible. And when it comes to her photography and editing skills, they are truly outstanding--just look at the edited photos, they're absolutely stunning! You won't be disappointed with Clairbare Studios and Sandy's gift for capturing beautiful, lasting memories of your little ones.

Vish is great with editing and they're generous enough to re-edited our photos when I requested and give a bonus image when he forgot to edit some of my newborn's pictures.

Disappointing Maternity & Newborn Photoshoot Experience…read more We had a very disappointing experience across both our maternity and newborn photoshoots. For the maternity session, there was no proper pre-discussion about locations or outfits. We were simply asked to choose from previously taken images, which felt impersonal. During the shoot, the session felt rushed, and the photographer appeared disengaged, as if they wanted to finish early. From a 2-hour session, we could barely select around 10 usable images, which reflects the overall quality. We also noticed technical issues with the camera, including frequent error messages during burst shots. For the newborn session, we had informed them in advance that we would be about 30 minutes late due to our baby's doctor appointment. Despite this, one of the planned props was removed, which felt inflexible given the circumstances. There was also a significant delay of about four weeks beyond the expected timeline in delivering the edited images, without clear communication or accountability. After delivery, communication continued to be frustrating. We received emails indicating additional charges if image selections were not made within 30 days, which felt pressured--especially considering the delay in delivery was on their side. At the same time, when we requested a re-edit for one of the selected images, we had to follow up multiple times and did not receive timely responses. Additionally, some comments made during the newborn shoot were uncomfortable and inappropriate. Remarks about the baby's skin tone and comments regarding the mother's feeding choices were hurtful and unexpected, especially for a one-month-old baby. We expected a much more respectful and sensitive environment. There was also no prior discussion about props for the newborn shoot -- only a couple of setups were pre-arranged, and we felt limited to those options. Similar to the maternity shoot, the overall photography quality did not meet expectations. From a 1.5-hour session, we could barely select around 15 images, and the editing felt very basic, with some images appearing minimally edited. Given our experience, the overall service felt unprofessional, inflexible, and lacking in quality. These are once-in-a-lifetime moments, and we expected a much more thoughtful, skilled, and supportive experience. Also, please don't go based on Instagram followers alone -- our experience did not reflect the expectations set by their online presence. If you are looking for a photographer who communicates well, provides guidance, and creates a comfortable and enjoyable session -- especially with a newborn -- this may not be the right fit.

Every session feels like magic!…read more We've had the absolute pleasure of working with Ozlem for several years now, and I truly can't imagine trusting anyone else to capture our family's most special moments. Her talent behind the camera is undeniable--she has an incredible eye for detail, light, and composition. Whether it's a chaotic family gathering or a quiet newborn shoot, she brings calm & patience. Somehow, she always manages to capture the essence of who we are as a family--those authentic, fleeting moments that are more precious than any posed shot could ever be. Her finished photos are consistently stunning--thoughtfully edited and timeless. We're so grateful to have found her! If you're lucky enough to work with her, you'll understand exactly what I mean.

She also allowed us to switch weekend days for the shoot because my husband had to work on our original shoot date. She was very patient with our son even though he got quite fussy during the shoot, particularly during the actual cake smash part. So far, the raw photos we have received back look pretty good with a decent variety of photos to choose from. Looking forward to seeing the final products! UPDATE: the final gallery was awesome! Would definitely recommend Ozlem.
