Nancy Berger Artful Photography

Welcome to our portrait photography studio, where we specialize in capturing the precious moments of young families through Emotive Fine Art Photography. We are led by Nancy, an award-winning photographer with over a decade of experience and a mother of three. Our studio is based in Texas, and we offer a variety of services, including Family Sessions, Maternity Sessions, Freshly Delivered Newborn Babies & Sitting Aged- School Aged Littles.

At our studio, we believe in creating an organic and emotive atmosphere, keeping design simple and elegant, so that we can focus on what matters most - your family. We strive to create gorgeous artwork that you can feel and cherish forever. Our studio is the heart of our work, where we create images, house all the props for sessions, and ensure that babies are kept warm and comfortable.

In-Studio Sessions

We offer In-Studio Sessions from Monday to Friday at 10:30 AM. We are closed on weekends. In-studio sessions are the best way to capture your baby's newborn portraits, and we recommend reserving your session spot during your second trimester. We'll place your due date on our calendar and schedule your session when baby is born. Newborn sessions are done during the week in our New Braunfels Baby Studio. We provide a digital prep guide to help you prepare your baby and family for the session. At this time, you'll inform us of any colors you'd like included. We gently and carefully mold your new little love into beautiful poses using your favorite coordinating colors. Sessions take about 2 hours, sometimes more depending on baby. After your session, you'll receive an online preview link of all your images. You'll choose your favorite images, and your selected images are then perfected & uploaded to our online gallery for you to download & cherish forever.

Child Portraits & Milestones

Child portraits are for babies who are fully sitting up through 10 years old. We recommend booking 3-6 months in advance. For sitting babies, you can book your spot and then contact us to schedule the session date when baby is sitting unassisted. We like to keep the focus on your sweet baby, so set design is kept simple & "clean." We recommend bringing in 2 -3 simple outfits, fresh flowers are great for girl's sessions. Milestone Sessions are done in the morning usually during the week. Some weekend dates may be available one weekend per month. You'll come in and we'll change baby into 2-4 outfits for some adorable portraits! We let baby run the show! Galleries are edited and sent to you via online viewing gallery where you'll download your images!

Cake Smash

Cake smash sessions are done during the week in the morning timeframe when baby is happiest. We provide the setup decor with matching balloons, puffs and cake stand. Parents provide the cake smash outfit for baby and any custom decor like banners with the child's name. Fresh flowers and custom touches can be added onto the session for an additional cost. Sessions are edited in 2 - 4 weeks and sent to you via online gallery for downloading and print ordering.

Maternity

Maternity Sessions are reserved for Newborn Clients only, a newborn session booking is required to reserve a Maternity date. We keep a few select maternity gowns in our studio wardrobe. We always recommend mamas bring their own but for in-studio sessions, they may change into one of mine. Dresses are not permitted for outdoor use. Your spouse and children are allowed to take part in the session! During your session, we will pose you and help you angle your face and body to best show off your bump while making you feel beautiful at the same time.

Family

Family sessions are some of our favorite sessions. As a mom of three littles, I know how important this session truly is. Getting ready for a family session and having your photos taken is actually a lot of work, for you! So, we try to make the process as easy as possible. We'll help you select the best time, coordinate outfits and find a location that is just as special as your family. We are always up for traveling to amazing spots for the best photos!

Mommy & Me

Mommy & Me Sessions are offered year-round and are best for babies 6 months all the way to 14 years old. As a mama of three littles, I know how fast this time with them so small goes. You'll want to capture them on your hip, nursing in your arms, their sweet unforced smiles. We'll help you select the best time for the happiest baby, which is usually in the morning around 10:30 am. We'll talk about your outfits and what to wear and plan all of the sweet details. Mommy & Me sessions are offered year-round in the studio and are a great way to capture your baby's milestones and moments with you.
