Houston’s #1 Fine Art Maternity Photographer

Motherhood is a love story unlike any other.

As your Houston Maternity photographer I live to document this story… From the moment you first knew you were carrying your child, their story began to weave into yours. Lives connected, shared moments, shared history. The chapters you share will be short, for, in reality, you are teaching them to write their own story; a story that begins with the most beautiful kind of love.

We are a fine art maternity photography studio in Houston, Texas.

We honor the fleeting moments of motherhood through baby’s first year with artwork for your home, preserving your family’s legacy for your generations to come.

Kind Words

Kristen listened to every detail that I wanted for my maternity shoot. She methodically thought out all the details prior to my shoot and had perfect outfits already selected. She made me feel comfortable and confident. My husband joined me in some of the photos and he had a great experience as well. Her work is outstanding! Pure perfection!

As soon as I saw your portfolio, your pictures would not leave my mind. The way you put your time and effort into it makes it even more beautiful! They are breathtaking and your style is exquisite!

I don’t usually do reviews, but I felt like I had to on this occasion, because WOW! This was an incredible experience. She is the best newborn photographer in Houston, and probably all of Texas. Even though our son was 4 months old at his session, she was able to capture him looking like he was a week old! She was gentle and professional as well as creative. I will definitely use her in the future!

Kristen is a very sweet and warm individual who is truly a gifted photographer. Her passion for her craft is evident in her attention to detail and her commitment to capturing her client’s vision, while still incorporating her artistry into the images. She was extremely professional and did a beautiful job capturing my daughter’s first-year portraits. I will definitely plan to use her services again in the future. I only wish I would have found her sooner!

My wife and I brought our newborn to La Vie recently and could have been more pleased. Kristen went the extra mile in every aspect, not only with her amazing photography, but the little details as well; like having snacks and coffee ready and even a nice presentation of the photos at the end on a big screen. The experience alone was definitely 5 star!

– New Dad

Kristen is awesome! She took all my ideas and came up with wonderful sessions for both my daughter and I. She captured the beauty of my pregnancy and made me feel comfortable and pretty. She was so patient with our little one and captured images I will cherish forever. My husband and are so pleased with her work and professionalism, we will be using her for other sessions in the future!

– Chelsea

Kristen is amazing! She is very professional and detailed in her work. Her photography stands out because she takes the time to get to know the family, working with their ideas as well as her own. She is very patient and artistic. I would highly recommend La Vie Photography!
