Family, maternity & newborn photographer in Los Angeles and Ventura County
Natural, emotional photos for families who want this season remembered beautifully and honestly
I take a limited number of sessions each month so I can give every family a personal experience. Now booking Spring & Summer 2026.
I know how quickly these seasons of life pass. As a mom myself, I understand how much love, chaos, tenderness, and beauty live inside ordinary family moments. My sessions are designed to feel easy and natural, even if you’ve never been in front of the camera before.
WHERE DO I WORK?
I’m based in Ventura County, in Oak Park. I mainly work along the coast from Malibu to Ventura. But honestly, I’m always open to traveling wherever you need to capture your special moment.
I often drive for newborn sessions anywhere from Orange County to Santa Barbara.
Just send me a message and tell me where you’d love your session to take place — or let’s find a special spot just for you and go there together.

Once your deposit is paid, I’ll send you an outfit guide, a location guide, and a mood board. I’ll be here to help you every step of the way!
It's Go Time
On the day of your session, I’ll help you see that you don’t need to pose to get beautiful photos. We’ll capture natural, authentic moments that truly document this special time in your life.
90% of my clients either come to me for their very first photoshoot or haven’t had one in years—and they all leave happy, saying it was so much easier than they expected!

Xenia delivered the most beautiful family photos for us. When I first saw the photos I got emotional. She captured this moment in our lives perfectly. I will cherish these photos forever.
Xenia made us feel so comfortable during the shoot. She is fantastic and you can tell she puts her whole heart into what she does. I’m so grateful to her and can’t wait for our next session with her.🤍

Our photos came out really beautiful! I can’t recommend Xenia enough! We’re usually pretty awkward when it comes to posing, but she made the whole experience so comfortable and fun. My 2-year-old daughter is often anxious and shy around strangers, yet she instantly bonded with Xenia — we were amazed! It really shows how wonderful she is with families and children.
