Moments with our children slip by faster than we realize. One day they fit in our arms, the next they stretch toward independence. At Ella Bar Photography, our Mommy and Me photography sessions in Los Angeles are designed to pause time and preserve that irreplaceable bond through soft, elegant, and deeply emotional portraits. From our calm Tarzana studio, we create personalized sessions that allow mothers to feel seen, celebrated, and connected.
Why Choose Mommy and Me Photography?
These sessions are about more than photos—they’re about legacy. As a mother, you deserve to be in the frame, not just behind it. Our artistic portraits honor the essence of motherhood, capturing subtle gestures and shared looks that words can’t describe.
Key reasons families choose Mommy and Me portraits:
- Celebrate milestones, like birthdays or Mother’s Day
- Preserve fleeting early moments with your child
- Create heirloom-quality images that will last generations
- Bond over a gentle, creative experience with your little one
What to Expect in the Studio
Our Tarzana photography studio is designed with mothers and children in mind. You can expect a relaxed, warm environment where every detail—from wardrobe styling to lighting—is thoughtfully curated to make you feel at ease.
Here’s how we make the experience memorable:
- Soft, natural light or studio strobes tailored to your aesthetic
- Neutral-toned wardrobe pieces available on-site
- Calm, kid-friendly pacing to accommodate breaks and playful moments
- Gentle direction that captures authenticity, not forced smiles

A Personalized Portrait Experience
Every mother-child bond is unique, which is why we customize each session. Whether you’re seeking something ethereal and dreamy or minimalist and modern, Ella collaborates with you to bring your vision to life. We embrace natural emotion, guiding you through subtle posing that feels intuitive, not staged.
Each portrait is an invitation to remember:
- How your child felt in your arms
- The love in their eyes
- The softness of your shared embrace
