Whether you're expecting, bringing home a newborn, celebrating a first birthday, or updating family photos, the goal isn't to make everything look perfect. It's to help you feel prepared and leave with photos you'll love and enjoy for years to come.
Since 2008, Taozijia Photography has photographed 2,000+ Seattle-area families and received hundreds of 5-star reviews. Her work has also earned NAPCP Master Photographer Certification, recognition in print and international digital image competitions, and a spot on Peerspace's top Seattle newborn photographer list.
Outdoor and studio maternity sessions for expecting parents who want photos that feel natural, comfortable, and not overly posed. I'll help with styling and posing so you know what to do.
View Maternity Sessions
Studio and in-home newborn sessions following your baby's pace, with time for feeding, soothing, breaks, parent photos, sibling moments, and the quiet details you will want to remember.
View Newborn Sessions
Studio milestone and first birthday sessions for babies who are sitting or turning one. Choose classic milestones or simple cake smashes that keep the attention on expressions.
View Milestone Sessions
Outdoor, seasonal, and studio family sessions for updated photos of this stage. I'll help with location, styling, and flow, with room for movement, real expressions, and toddler breaks.
View Family Sessions
You do not need to arrive knowing how to pose, where to look, or what to do with your hands. I'll guide the practical pieces: how to stand or sit, how to interact with your child, when to move, and when to pause, so the photos feel natural.
Real family life is part of the experience. Babies may need feeding or soothing. Toddlers may need movement. Siblings may need a little patience before they warm up. I expect those things, and I work with your child's age, mood, and pace instead of expecting everyone to perform perfectly.
Pricing is transparent and posted online, booking is straightforward, and you'll receive prep and styling support so planning feels clearer.
My style is clean, natural, and centered on your family. The focus stays on your baby's details, your child's expressions, the way you hold each other, and the moments that will feel different as everyone grows.
The final images should feel polished without losing the feeling of your family. Whether we're in the studio, outdoors, or in your home with a newborn, I keep the backgrounds, colors, and direction simple so your family stays at the center.

Trusted with newborns, babies, toddlers, siblings, and the real-life parts parents worry about most.
Many families first notice Taozijia Photography's work for its clean, timeless look. They choose to book because the process feels organized, transparent, and realistic for life with babies and kids.
That steady approach is especially helpful in the parts parents tend to worry about: posing, outfits, baby needs, kid energy, clear pricing, and knowing what happens after booking.
Families often mention the same things after working with Taozijia: they felt comfortable, they knew what to do, Taozijia was patient with their baby or children, and the photos felt worth the effort.
Hi, I'm Taozi Mama. I've been photographing Seattle-area families since 2008, capturing pregnancies, newborns, first birthdays, and milestones as they grow. My style is natural, timeless, and family-centered.
