MEET YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER, ANGELA

I am a mother and a grandma of 4 sweet kiddos that call me Yaya.  Watching my own children and now my grandchildren grow like weeds in the blink of an eye I know how important it is to take the time to capture them while they're little.

My home is filled with many pieces of artwork of my family on my walls and shelves and I can't begin to express the joy these beautiful memories bring me.  

My goal is for you to experience that same kind of joy when you pass by the artwork we have created for your walls or when you sit down on a comfy couch surrounded by your kids to look at their albums and remember those first moments when you became a family.

Contact me here to book a session, to chat about your family or just ask questions.

Visalia's Boutique Newborn Studio

After three studio locations, we have finally found our perfect home! Our boutique studio provides the perfect environment for photographing newborns and their parents. We have designed our studio to provide ultimate comfort for new moms and ease of viewing your baby's session as we work our magic.  A private mama's room is available for nursing, kicking your feet up, catching up on social media or even taking a little nap.

Your ordering session may take place in our studio using our oversized screen.  We also offer in home ordering sessions to assist in choosing proper sizes and designing wall collections to compliment or decor and enjoy in your home every day.

Because we also work on location, studio sessions are by appointment only and available Monday-Thursday 10am-5pm. A limited number of weekend and evening appointments are available for premier sessions and sales appointments.

We are located just East of Marie Calendar's on the corner of Central and Mineral King.

Where are you located? 

Our professional studio is located in Visalia, California.  Our address is 317 S Church Street and we just East of Marie Calendar's on the corner of Central and Mineral King.  Our maternity sessions are done in the studio or on location.  All newborn sessions are done in our comfortable studio.

When should I book?

If you are interested in maternity and newborn sessions it is best to contact us during your 5th or 6th month of pregnancy.   If you wait until after your delivery it may be difficult to squeeze you in.

Do you include parents and siblings in newborn sessions?

Yes, we are happy to capture your first portraits with your new baby.  Toddlers between the ages of 18 months - 3 years may take extra time to work with as they can be uncertain about this new little person in their life but we do have a few tricks up our sleeves to create a beautiful portrait of your children together. 

What should I bring?

We have everything you need for your session.   Our extensive line of props, wraps, bonnets and headbands have been carefully chosen to enhance your newborns portraits.  However, if you have something special you'd like to use such as Daddy's firefighter gear, baseball glove or horse saddle feel free to bring those along.  Heirloom items such as a grandma's quilt or Mommy's wedding veil also make beautiful additions to add meaning to your portrait. 

Why are you so expensive?  I've seen other photographers who charge a lot less.

There are many factors which affect our pricing as business owners and you can be confident knowing that we have given careful thought and calculated all of our expenses when determining our pricing. Unlike many photographers, we do not hold sessions in our home, which our city prohibits.  We are located in a professional leased building.  There are many costs associated with running a professional studio. We are fully licensed and insured and pay both sales tax and state and government taxes.  That means that over 25% of what we charge goes to the government and that is before our expenses (rent, lighting, props, utilities, camera equipment, etc).  We have invested extensively in a full line of all the beautiful props you see on our website which we will use to create beautiful memories of your newborn.  We have also invested heavily in education to give us the best knowledge for lighting, retouching and posing your baby safely.  Many clients can see a clear difference in the lighting and quality of our portrait art.  We are passionate about creating images and products that are the highest quality in the industry to provide you with family heirlooms that you will be enjoyed in your home and your walls throughout many generations.  We believe that your family's portraits will become your most treasured belongings and that you should only trust a professional with your timeless memories.

How do I reserve my session?

Angela Eller Photography is proud to offer multiple payment options. Your session time is reserved when we receive full payment of your session fees.  This payment can be taken over the phone with a credit card or paid securely on line through our online invoice. You may also mail a check to our studio. Session fees cover the photographer's time and talent to create your beautiful images, an in person or phone consultation, the session time, a private ordering session in our studio and the time to retouch and process your final artwork.  During your ordering session we will show you all of the carefully selected images for your final gallery and we will help you decide which products such as fine art prints, museum gallery wraps, and/or albums will best suit your family and your budget.  Most families invest between 900-2500.  We accept all forms of payment and provide payment plans if necessary.  Orders are processed in the order they are received once full payment has been made.  Orders payed in full do receive priority.

What happens if I need to reschedule?

In the case of illness or emergency we are happy to reschedule your session based on our availability.
