Hi there,
I'm Yuka.
I'm based in sunny San Diego California. I’m originally from Japan and I’ve been on this incredible journey as a photographer since 2015. I focus on the fine art of maternity, newborn and family photography, capturing the precious moments of life with grace and simplicity.

Newborn
The arrival of these little wonders fills our hearts with immeasurable love, inspiring us to capture every precious moment to cherish forever.
maternity
Every pregnancy is a miracle, and I cherish the opportunity to celebrate each little one. I’m thrilled to be part of this special journey with you.
SITTER & Baby
Sitter sessions occur when the baby can sit up independently but hasn't started crawling, typically between the sixth to ninth month.

How it works
Capture cherished memories effortlessly
with these simple steps:
book your session, planning, enjoy the moment, and receive your treasured memories.
booking & planning
01.
To secure your session, the session fee and signed contract are due at booking. I’ll send you a questionnaire to understand your needs and help us coordinate props and outfits for the session. Once your baby arrives, please let me know within 48 hours so I can secure a date for your session.
Photo Time
02.
I’m thrilled to be a part of your special moments and look forward to a memorable newborn session.
My assistant and I will arrive at your home with props and set up a mini studio. This process will take about 30 minutes. In the meantime, please relax and enjoy some quiet time with your baby!
Purchasing Collection
03.
Within a couple of weeks, I’ll hand-edit your photos, create a pretty slideshow, and send you a gallery link via email. You can enjoy viewing all the photos with your whole family (the best part!).
You’ll have 7 days to preview your gallery and purchase from the three available collections anytime during that period.
Enjoy Your Photos
04.
After you purchase your collection, you’ll have 6 months to select your favorite digital images and use your print credit to order the beautiful artwork you’d like—zero pressure!
Want to see and feel products in person? I have samples and can meet at a coffee shop or your home. Let’s chat!
