Family Photographer Orange County

Family Photographer Orange County – First Year Baby Plan

Gilmore Studios is a professional family photographer located in Costa Mesa and Newport Beach, CA.

First off, let us start by saying we have enjoyed watching little Sienna grow up! Mom and Dad signed her up for our 1st year portrait plan so they would be able to enjoy all the little changes, for years to come. Documenting your family is important because your little ones will not only love seeing themselves, but more importantly, it’s how they remember you.

Life goes by fast, TAKE MORE PHOTOS!

If there is one thing we have learned as parents, it’s that it goes by way too fast! The hustle and bustle of our crazy lives causes you to miss booking a session. This is why the first year baby plan is a must! You will be planning that 1st birthday party before you know it.

To summarize, If you don’t make time to photograph these important events, you could end up with a few cell phone photos on your social media account to look back on. For that reason alone, be sure to take more photos!

We have loved documenting this little lady’s milestones! If you would like to view a great example of our first year plan, check out her sessions below.

Simple Sophistication

We are on Instagram
Have you ever noticed how the most meaningful moments don’t need much at all?
The power was out in the church during this baptism, which made everything feel quieter and more intentional. Just family, faith, and a moment that truly mattered. Sometimes simplicity has a way of stripping things back to what is most important.
Who says Christmas photos have to be serious?

This family showed up in red, brought the energy, and leaned fully into the fun. The funny poses, the laughs, and the personalities are exactly what made this session feel so them. These are the photos you smile at every time you walk by them.
Do your headshots actually feel like you?

This one was done at Balboa in the fog, and honestly, it worked perfectly. Soft light, calm energy, and nothing distracting. A great reminder that headshots do not have to be stiff or overly polished to feel professional.
2025 looked like:
• 152 sessions
• New faces, familiar faces
• More gratitude than I can fit here
This work continues to surprise me. I’m thankful for the trust, the connection, and the moments I was honored to document this year. If you were part of it, thank you.
Do you ever realize how much changes in just one year?

This was their session from last year, and looking back at these candid moments is such a reminder of why yearly photos matter. You don’t notice the little changes day to day, but you feel them when you see them like this.
