What makes the wrapped session special?
The 'wrapped newborn' package is a fantastic option because it personifies the heart of motherhood: Baby placed in your arms, indeed a perfected bundle of joy.
Wrapped sessions are breathtaking, cozy, and exceptional because the images are unique. Crafted through customized styling reflecting rustic, dreamy, and timeless branding, the wrapped newborn package is a relaxed, laid-back experience for new parents as the Baby is soothed by the wrapping.
Please note that all parents are prompted to arrive 15 - 20 minutes early before your session. This helps settle everyone and allows us to give you a tour. After your session, an hour is set aside for you to feed Baby, pack up, have a snack, and take your time.
The studio also happily offers flexible rescheduling for sick children, emergencies, and inclement weather. As parents of four children, we understand sometimes something happens on the photoshoot day; no worries! You have access to our direct lines to call us with any updates.
Wrapped images provide flexibility for babies who have missed the traditional 14-day window for posed portraits. This package is also ideal for infants who spent time in the NICU and is available up to 6 weeks old for cherubs who entered the world earlier than expected. This package is available to full-term newborns up to day 25. We recommend visiting earlier rather than later. This package is designed for older newborns.
Parents deserve beautiful portraits, and the studio welcomes older newborns for the coziest and sweetest sessions.

Why Do Babies Enjoy being swaddled?
Newly arrived babies enjoy being wrapped because this mimics swaddling, which is a soothing technique used to provide comfort to Baby through warmth and security.
Moreover, my ninja newborn wrapping skills help calm your sweet cherub because this keeps Baby from being disturbed by their startle reflex.
The result is a relaxed bundle of joy, which feels like they’re back in the womb. Babies spend 9 months growing in a tight, dark space in 98.6-degree temperatures. Parents often marvel at how well the apple of their eye sleeps in my studio.
What wrapping styles can you expect?
Here is a sample gallery of your expectations during a wrapped newborn session. 4 week old Theo visited for a session featuring grey, teal, green, cream, and yellow accents for his appointment.
Wrapped newborn sessions feature three wrapping styles, macro images, and a forward-facing floor prop, such as Baby in a Bucket. Macro images, moreover, are the special and sweet details that are unique and specific to Baby. You spent nine months dreaming of their characteristics; macro photography is a cornerstone to all newborn appointments. Potato sack, tootsie, and cradle are the main styles, though sometimes I tweak them to provide more variety should I have an extra sleepy baby visiting. Our wrapped baby photography provides beautiful memories.
Inspired by color, texture, and vintage props
Mia visited my studio when she was just five weeks old; this option is perfect for older babies who missed the traditional two-week scheduling period.
Her session features a vintage-inspired miniature custom-made bed, circular oak basket, blush pink distress farmhouse bucket, and gorgeous macro images, which are the up-close details of toes, hands, lips, profile, etc. You'll find a unique color scheme featuring green, turquoise, aqua, neutrals, and pink to make Mom super happy.
STYLING questionnaire reflects your color preferences
This precious baby girl visited the studio when she was just over a week old. The wrapped newborn session is also an excellent option for parents who like the cozy look of this styling; it is not just for older newborns.
Her parents requested all things girly such as pink, white, ivory, cream, and natural props, such as a woven basket. However, Mom is a Texas A&M Aggie, so the maroon represents her school pride while accenting the white. Macro images, as always, play a large part in the gallery, which are the up-close details of Baby’s features, such as lips, fingers, toes, profile, eyelashes, and more.
What three wrapping styles can you expect?
(1) Tootsie wrap
Ten sweet toes are displayed during this style of newborn baby wrapping. This is also a great wrap to include macro images of your little one, which are those adorable, tiny details such as their perfect little toes!
(2) Potato sack pose
The second style of wrapping you may expect in your baby's session is a potato sack, which is utterly adorable as it displays the baby as the perfect round little ball. Babies love being wrapped, and they look so cozy!
(3) Cradle wrap
This style mimics how a newborn would be placed in a cradle, hence the name. Baby’s arms are out, though their arms may also be tucked in. Usually, I take cues from Baby and see how sleepy they are. Styling sessions with vibrant and rich tones is a joy as they’re truly unique. However, neutrals are very popular and trendy right now, too.
BABY IN A FLOOR PROP | FORWARD-FACING POSE
Aside from the three wrapping styles, shown above, the ‘wrapped newborn session’ also includes the forward-facing pose of Baby in one of the many floor props you’ll find in the studio. Examples include natural baskets, galvanized buckets, pails, antique crates, and more. My love of vintage is always apparent.
Buckets, bowls, crates, and more | floor props
You will see a different style of wrapping in each floor prop. You're welcome to request an item if there is a specific floor prop you've seen in my portfolio. You will receive a detailed styling questionnaire in which we'll chat about your favorite colors, props, and even accessories you'd like to see in your baby's session, such as headbands or adorable bonnets showcasing their precious, chubby cheeks!
image selections | Private Proofing Gallery
Two weeks after your appointment, you will receive an online, password-protected, private proofing gallery showcasing all the perfect images.
The gallery explains how to select the pictures you want. Your package includes your favorite 20 full-resolution, non-watermarked portraits and matching black-and-white edits of those selections. You can add additional images to your package at that time, though you are not obligated to do so. The images you do not choose are discarded.
Your selections are fully edited, and a new gallery is prepared for download.
You will download your images instantly digitally. A print release, a list of consumer-grade labs, and cloud storage ideas are also included. You may print your copies as large as you wish and as many times as you wish.
Parent Testimonials | Happiest Clients in Houston
SBP is currently the highest-rated newborn, baby, and infant photographer in Houston on Google, with over 330 five-star reviews. The studio practices a customer service-driven experience.
“I did the wrapped newborn session with Sarah and would highly recommend her as a photographer. When I was an expectant mom and first reached out to her she was very prompt, friendly, and wanted to make sure she answered any questions I had. Then once baby arrived we scheduled a date for the photo session. She made the whole process so easy and stress free, which is a lifesaver for an expectant / new mom. Sarah even provided a guide on how to prep baby for photo day and it really worked, my little one slept through the whole session and the photos came out absolutely gorgeous! Sarah definitely seems like she has a passion for what she does and is very good at it!” -Allison
“Sarah is an absolute gem! Her photos have a very distinctive style that sets them apart. The pictures are so wonderfully tranquil and whimsical they almost can't be real! But just wait until you see her in person weaving her magic. What you're getting here is not just an photographer, but an incredibly caring mom of 4 who understands how precious your baby is to you and knows exactly how to care for and pose a newborn. She is a certified baby magician. Seriously! You won't be disappointed spending your time and money with her! Sarah thanks so much for capturing this special time for me and my family and we hope to see you again in the future for more precious moments!”
Option to add airbrush makeup and artistry to all portrait packages
The studio has partnered with a top-notch professional hair styling and airbrush makeup artist, Annie Williams. Services are available as an add-on to all portrait packages. Our preferred vendor provides on-location services at our studio or, if you prefer, your home.
Family, sibling, or parent images as an add-on
Add family, sibling, and parent setups for an additional $200 if you want to participate in the session. This includes six more digital files of your choice and 30 more minutes of coverage. For instance, we cover several setups, such as the entire family, Mom with Baby, Dad with Baby, Sibling with Baby, Mom with the little ones, Dad with the little ones, and more.
