Spring is the perfect time to celebrate the beautiful bond between you and your little ones with Mommy and Me Mini Sessions in Las Vegas!
At La Bella's Photography, we specialize in blending portrait photography with storytelling, creating images that don’t just capture how you look but how you feel. These sessions are all about the genuine, unscripted moments that make your family’s story uniquely yours.
Your children are only little for a short time. Their tiny hands reaching for yours, their uncontrollable giggles, and the way they lean into your arms for comfort—these moments are fleeting. Life gets busy, and it’s easy to let the years slip by without documenting the love and connection you share. A Mommy and Me session is more than just a photo session—it’s an opportunity to freeze time and create memories you can revisit for years to come.
With my lens, I’ll focus on those in-between moments: the way your little one snuggles close, the spontaneous laughter, and the soft, meaningful glances that say so much without words. My goal is to create photos that feel alive, raw, and real—images that tell your story in a way only you can.
Have you ever wondered what it’s like to step into a photography session that’s less about stiff poses and more about authentic connection? Here’s how we do things differently at La Bella's Photography:
It Starts with a Connection
Before your session, we’ll have a consultation to discuss your vision, your family dynamics, and what makes your bond unique. You’ll also complete a thoughtfully designed questionnaire to make the experience personal and meaningful.
Come as You Are
The session isn’t about perfection—it’s about capturing you. Whether your kids want to twirl in the desert breeze, run around barefoot, or snuggle up in your arms, the vibe is relaxed and natural. My goal is to create a space where you and your littles can simply be yourselves.
Behind the Lens
I’ll guide you with gentle prompts to bring out genuine interactions, like whispering a silly secret to your child or sharing a quiet hug. These little moments create the magic.
Beautiful Backdrops
Your session will take place at a stunning Las Vegas desert location, with soft, golden light adding warmth to every image. The result? Timeless, storytelling photos filled with love and connection.
To make the most of your Mommy and Me session, here are some fun tips to help you and your littles prepare:
Talk About the Session Ahead of Time
Get your kids excited by framing it as an adventure! Share that they’ll get to run, play, and snuggle while having fun with you.
Pick Comfortable Clothing
Choose outfits that you can move and play in. Neutral tones and soft textures work beautifully against natural backdrops. Access Bella’s Closet for wardrobe inspiration!
Bring Snacks and Comfort Items
Pack your child’s favorite snacks, small toys, or a comfort item to help them feel at ease during the session.
Get a Good Night’s Sleep
Well-rested kiddos (and parents!) are much more likely to enjoy the session.
Be Ready to Play
The best photos come when everyone is relaxed and having fun. Embrace the chaos, laugh loudly, and let the moments unfold naturally.
Wardrobe Styling for a Cinematic Look in Your Mommy & Me Session
When it comes to creating timeless, cinematic photos, wardrobe plays a starring role. The colors, textures, and tones you choose can set the mood and transform your images into storytelling magic. For example, a family styled in warm earthy tones evokes a soft, cozy vibe, while all-white outfits create a fresh, ethereal look.
This is your session, and your wardrobe choices should reflect your personal style. My goal is to guide you toward options that photograph beautifully while helping you achieve the cohesive, organic aesthetic that makes storytelling images stand out.
Here are some popular styles that look incredible on camera. One of these might resonate with you, and we can plan your session around it!
Personally, I lean toward boho, country, and cottage core vibes, and my client closet is stocked with plenty of options to match these aesthetics.
My client closet includes hand-selected pieces that align with my cinematic, storytelling style. These wardrobe options are perfect for achieving a natural, cohesive look:
While I don’t stock clothing for men and teen boys, I recommend these options:
Although not in my closet, consider unique pieces like:
No matter what style you choose, we’ll work together to create a look that feels true to you and photographs beautifully.
Color selection can completely change the mood of your images. To achieve the soft, organic aesthetic I specialize in, consider these colors:
Patterns and textures elevate your wardrobe and add depth to your images. When done thoughtfully, they create visually stunning, dynamic photos.
Adding textures makes your wardrobe feel intentional and elevated. Whether it’s the flowing chiffon of a dress or the softness of muslin on a newborn, textures are a key element in creating stunning, cinematic photos.
Whether you’re borrowing from my client closet or styling your own wardrobe, I’m here to guide you every step of the way. Together, we’ll create a cohesive, cinematic look that feels true to you and highlights the beauty of your family’s story.
Let’s bring your vision to life and make magic!
With La Bella's Photography, it’s not just about taking photos—it’s about creating memories that feel like you. My passion is capturing the connections and emotions that make your family’s story unique.
