These are the items we use on a regular basis that have been amazing and totally worth the investment! Feel free to take a look, I hope you find this helpful!

What an amazing journey it has been working with Kasey and Kinsey throughout their whole pregnancy and birth experience. We met these two a few months ago for their Bidwell Park maternity session. From there we also had the privilege of photographing baby Drake with 48 hours after he was born at Enloe Hospital. And then, the icing on the cake was meeting these three at their beautiful Chico home for newborn photos.

Bidwell Park Chico CA Maternity Photo Session - Baby Williams

This is such a special session for the TréCreative family! We first met David and Lyndsey before they were even engaged. Lyndsey wanted to surprise her parents with Christmas photos of her and her sisters. Shortly after the photos were taken, David and Lyndsey were engaged in Sacramento. From there, we were asked to photograph their engagement and wedding. Over the years, we’ve gotten to know these two and have become much more than clients but some of our biggest supporters and friends. We photographed Lyndsey’s sister’s wedding and countless friends in the Sacramento area. It is such an honor that our business has been blessed in so many ways not just by the referrals but even more by friendship we’ve established.

From there, we were honored to capture their maternity, newborn and now Leo’s one year old photos!

Newborn Photography in Chico CA - Baby Rowan

The Harrington family welcomed their second child, a sweet baby girl here in Chico this summer. We spent the morning getting to know them as a new family of four. We love being able to spend time in our newborn family’s homes. We can capture them in the same spaces they’ll be raising their little ones, freezing the in between moments that create a beautiful legacy for them to look back on. It’s truly an honor we don’t take lightly.

Chico Family Lifestyle Photographer - Jarvis Home Family Photos

For family lifestyle sessions, our goal is focus on connection and creating moments that are natural for the families we get to work with. We still will capture a few more traditional smiling “looking at the camera” photos, but that’s not the focus of these sessions. The focus is helping the family forget about the camera and letting candid moments come out. Our homes can be such intimate spaces and it was an honor to be invited into the Jarvis household.

Congratulations to Sam and Carlie on the newest member to the Adams family, baby Callahan!

With newborns, time is stretched and accelerated all at the same time. There are so many irreplaceable moments and change happens by the hour. Babies are a precious gift, the start of a new family adventure. In our business, one of our greatest goals is that our work would not only preserve, but encourage this spirit of family legacy. I feel incredibly honored and privileged to be the one to freeze time and bring families back to that very emotion of bringing their baby home for the first time.

Fall Sunset Maternity Photos in Northern California - Baby C

Sam and Carlie were our first EVER couple to model for TréCreative before we even had a website up. We needed portfolio images and content. They graciously agreed to be in front of the camera. I’m sure they were just as nervous as we were because we barely knew how to pose someone let along make them feel comfortable in front of the camera. To take it back even further, they were our first couple friends when we both started dating in high school. We’d go on adventures, double dates and dream about life post-high school. They were both in our wedding, we photographed their engagement and wedding.
