More Than a Photoshoot. It’s Proof You Did Something Beautiful With the Chaos.

For Moms Who Want More Than Just “Pretty newborn Pictures”

 

Welcome! If we haven’t met, I’m Ute-Christin and the one behind the camera at Ute-Christin Photography.

 

After 15 years behind the camera & 1000+ sessions with new families, I know how to create calm in the chaos. I’ll pose when needed, step back when it matters, and always make sure the final result looks intentional, effortless, and timeless.

This isn’t just about what your baby looks like right now. It’s about what it felt like to hold them this small. That’s what we’re documenting.

My photography studio is located in Milford, Connecticut. Are you worried about how you’ll pull off a professional photography session just weeks after giving birth? I’m here to help. My sessions are easy, stress-free, and deliver results you will adore.

01. How It Works (So You Can Relax)

My goal is for you to feel taken care of from the moment you inquire to the moment you hang your favorite photo on the wall. My job is to make this process effortless, calm, and honestly... kind of fun. Here’s what working together looks like:

What to Know Before Your CT NEWBORN Session | FAQ

 

Q: When should I book my newborn session?

A: As soon as possible! I’ve had moms reach out as soon as they get the positive test, and I’ve had moms reach out after their baby is already born. My best recommendation is booking your session during your second trimester to ensure my availability. My studio is typically booked several months in advance. Because of the care I provide for each session, I can only take a limited number of sessions each month. Please reach out with any questions. I’m happy to answer!


Q: What should we bring to the session?

A: We provide everything needed for your baby! Wraps, props, and outfits are provided, but feel free to bring a sentimental item or special outfit you'd like photographed. Just bring your family, feeding supplies, and diapers.

 

Q: What should my baby wear to the studio?

A: Just a simple onesie or zip-up sleeper is perfect! Something easy to take off without disturbing your baby too much. We’ll handle the rest with our studio wardrobe and wraps!

 

Q: What if my baby is fussy or doesn’t sleep?

A: This fear is totally normal, but don't worry! We allow plenty of time for feeding, soothing, and snuggling. With patience (and a few baby whisperer tricks), we always get those dreamy shots.

 

Professional Newborn Portrait Artwork

 

Your newborn is only this little once, and while the days may feel long, the weeks will fly by. That’s why investing in professional artwork after your newborn photography session is one of the most meaningful gifts you can give your future self.

 

Imagine walking past a beautiful framed portrait every day and seeing your baby’s tiny fingers, peaceful face, and that perfect, squishy little pose bringing a smile to your face, even on the busiest mornings. These aren’t just photos, they’re daily reminders of just how much love lives in your home.

Or picture sitting down with your child years from now, turning the pages of their newborn album together. As they grow, they'll see how deeply they’ve been loved from the very beginning. Each image tells the story of their first days, from the quiet moments, sweet snuggles, and all the emotion that filled the room when they first arrived.

 

Albums and wall art turn fleeting moments into lasting memories. They become part of your family’s story and something you can hold, display, and cherish as your baby grows.

 

The days are a blur. The photos won’t be.

 

You’ll walk away with more than beautiful images; you’ll have proof you were there, loving them fiercely through the messy, miraculous start.

Booking now means you won’t miss what’s already slipping by. Only a limited number of newborn spots are available each month.
