Spring brings a breath of fresh air blooming flowers, warm light, and the joy of new beginnings. To celebrate the season, I launched Spring Studio Mini Sessions in a Des Moines photography studio, short and sweet photo experiences designed to capture family connection, parent-child love, and the fleeting magic of springtime.

These indoor spring mini sessions were perfect for families, toddlers, and new parents looking to update their portraits in a timeless, floral setting.

Indoor Spring Photography Setup: Garden-Inspired Studio Design

For these seasonal mini sessions, it was transformed into a soft, garden-inspired oasis — ideal for newborn photography, mommy-and-me portraits, and family spring photos. The setup included:

• Blush pink, ivory, and soft green faux florals
• Cozy textures like lace, woven baskets, and neutral seating
• Ample natural light 

This design created a fresh, vibrant backdrop that perfectly complemented the spring family photo aesthetic, especially for families looking for indoor spring photography ideas in Des Moines.

Session Highlights: Real Families, Real Emotion

📷 Mommy-and-Me Mini Session: Capturing Candid Moments with My Own Kids

As a Des Moines family photographer and a mom, I stepped in front of the camera with my own kiddos, using a tripod and remote shutter to capture our real-life moments. From snack bribes to big giggles, these unfiltered images remind me (and other moms) why it’s so important to get in the frame.

These sessions highlight the beauty of:

• Genuine family connection
• Natural laughter and love
• Real, imperfect, and heartwarming memories

A Timeless Mother-Daughter Portrait Session

One of my returning clients booked a mommy-and-me mini session with her daughter. Their session was filled with:

• Fierce little poses and soft smiles
• Tight hugs and quiet bonding
• Emotional moments that told their story

Watching families grow and documenting those changes is one of the greatest joys of being a family portrait photographer in Des Moines.These two are the perfect example of why I love working with families year after year, watching their stories unfold is such a gift.

3. Spring Newborn Session: Welcoming a New Baby Girl

This lifestyle newborn photography session featured a cozy, light-filled setup for a three-week-old baby and her parents. We focused on:

• Tiny details like yawns and fingers
• Snuggly family poses
• Natural interactions in a calm, peaceful studio

These first few weeks fly by, and a newborn mini session ensures you never forget those early, tender moments so fast photographing your baby in their first few weeks ensures you’ll have these memories forever.
