Springfield MO newborn studio review mentioning client closet and props


I had an amazing experience with Kaitlyn as our newborn photographer! From the moment we arrived at her studio in Springfield, MO, I felt at ease. The studio was not only comfortable, but also conveniently located, making it so easy for us to get there. Kaitlyn's approach to handling my newborn was incredibly gentle and professional—she made sure to prioritize his safety throughout the entire session. When he got a little fussy, Kaitlyn was calm and patient, and she was able to soothe him effortlessly to capture those perfect shots.


The client closet was another fantastic feature. There were so many beautiful outfits to choose from, and I was able to find two gorgeous dresses that made me feel beautiful, which was such a confidence boost just two weeks postpartum! The props she used helped to make our pictures look like something from a magazine!


I can’t recommend Kaitlyn enough—her skills, her caring nature, and the overall experience exceeded all my expectations. The photos turned out stunning, and I’ll treasure them for a lifetime!
