Family Portraits
Family Portraits
As a Houston-based newborn, child, and family photographer, I create heartfelt, relaxed family portraits that show your people exactly as they are — the way they lean into you, the way tiny hands reach for yours, the joy, the chaos, and the love that lives in between.
These aren’t stiff, posed portraits. They’re photographs that feel like home.
The days are long, but the years? They’re flying by.
You’re in the thick of it — juggling schedules, wiping little hands, and doing your best to soak it all in. But it’s easy to forget to step into the frame. That’s where I come in.
Childhood is fleeting, but these moments last
forever...

Just for a Moment
Let’s Make Time Stand Still
What to Expect
Family sessions are gentle, unhurried, and centered around connection. We’ll capture the in-between moments, the laughter, the quiet snuggles — everything that makes your family uniquely yours.
Whether we shoot in my cozy home studio or outdoors in one of Houston’s beautiful green spaces, your session will feel more like time well spent together than a photo shoot.

“It’s not uncommon to hear during viewing appointments that choosing favorites is the hardest part—there’s just something about seeing the images in person that makes each one feel unforgettable.”
Mary with Klein Photography made our newborn Photoshoot the most serene, enjoyable experience we’ve had yet! Her patience, gentle nature, poses, and set up were amazing, providing us with photos to look back on for a lifetime! The soft music and white noise in the background kept our sweet boy comfortable and asleep throughout the entire shoot. Thank you so much for everything! We’ll definitely be back for our updated family photos!! ❤️."
"Mary is amazing! We have gone to her to do newborn photos. She provides very detailed information upfront so you know what to expect. During the session, she has a plan to maximize the session time while still being flexible in case the little one aren't cooperating. I appreciate how gentle and caring she is when working with our newborn. Her experience and knowledge working with the newborn is demonstrated which helps remove some of the stress from the parents. I love her photography style and her caring and professional demeanor. I highly recommend Mary!

01. How do i book a session with klein photography?
We all know the weather likes to be unpredictable, but no worries! If you are scheduled for an outdoor portrait session, I will be keeping an eye on the weather on the days leading up to your session and on the day you're scheduled.
If we need to reschedule your session due to weather, that's completely ok. I will let you know in a timely manner that a reschedule needs to happen, and we can plan for the next available date that works for both of us.
If you're scheduled for an in studio session and the weather is too dangerous for you or I to travel to the studio, we will reschedule your session at no additional charge.

01. How do i book a session with klein photography?
To ensure availability, I recommend reaching out as soon as you know you'd like portraits done. Our weekends tend to book up quickly, so if you require a time during the weekend or an evening I recommend booking at least 4-6 weeks in advance.
Newborn sessions are reserved based on your due date, and then scheduled when baby is born. We recommend reserving your newborn session between 28 and 36 weeks pregnant.
All reserved newborn clients are guaranteed a date on our calendar, even if baby is born early or late.
