Mountain View Maternity & Newborn Photographer
Luxury maternity, newborn, and family photography serving Mountain View, California
Mountain View tech families who want a true luxury maternity or newborn experience increasingly choose Oh Baby Photography in Sacramento. Yes, it's a 2-hour drive — and yes, our clients tell us it's absolutely worth it. The all-inclusive luxury package (designer wardrobe + professional makeup + fine-art retouching) starts at $849 here vs. $2000-4000 for comparable Bay Area studios with everything à la carte.
Why Mountain View Families Drive to Sacramento
The Bay Area has many maternity and newborn photographers — but the truly all-inclusive luxury model is rare. Most local SF Bay studios charge separately for gown rental ($200-400), professional makeup ($150-250), studio time ($800-1500), and retouching ($50-100 per image). The math gets uncomfortable fast.
Our Sacramento studio bundles everything into one transparent package price — Comfort $849, Premium $1,490. No upsells, no surprises.
What's Included
- Designer maternity gown library (XS–2XL): silk, chiffon, lace, modern jersey
- Professional hair and makeup styling by in-house artist
- Climate-controlled studio kept at 78°F for newborn safety
- Multiple backdrops, custom-built sets
- Fine-art retouching on every final image — done in-house, never outsourced
- Free on-site parking and comfortable waiting space for partners
- 3–4 hour newborn sessions, no rush
