A Stress-Free, Luxury Experience – You Just Bring Baby, and I’ll Handle the Rest

Congratulations on your growing family! Welcoming a new baby is a life-changing experience, and I’m honored to help you preserve these first moments with timeless photography.

At Giliane E. Mansfeldt Photography, I’ve specialized in newborn photography since 2010, with over 25 years in the industry. My goal is to create beautiful, heirloom-quality images while making the experience completely stress-free for you.


When you arrive at my cozy St. Paul studio, all you have to do is sit back and relax. I provide everything—props, outfits, wraps, headbands, and backgrounds—all carefully selected to match my signature style. Your baby’s comfort and safety are my top priority, and with my gentle posing techniques, your little one will be in experienced hands.


Curious about what happens during a session?  Walk through a newborn session with me here.
Each collection includes high-resolution digital images, and many offer print credits to help you create custom keepsakes like albums and wall art.

✨ A note about older newborns: I believe every baby deserves to be photographed, no matter their age. If your baby is older than 14 days, don’t worry—I will still create gorgeous newborn portraits for you

Understanding Print Credit and Print Release

All our newborn photography collections include a print release, giving you the freedom to make your own small prints at your convenience. If you’re looking for larger, custom artwork—such as albums, canvases, wood prints, or metal prints—then a collection with a print credit may be perfect for you.

The print credit works like a gift card, allowing you to select beautiful, professionally crafted items directly from your online gallery without any additional costs. For example, a $350 print credit can be used toward a variety of products, ensuring they meet our high-quality standards. Some clients use only the included credit, while others add more to create a fully personalized collection. There are no minimum purchase requirements—you have the flexibility to choose what works best for you.

This approach ensures that your memories are preserved in a way that’s both beautiful and professional, tailored to your needs.

How to book a newborn session?

The studio offers photo sessions by appointment only.  Once you have decided on which package you would like, contact the studio by filling out the form below.

The next step is to complete the required paperwork and pay the retainer fee of $300 which will be applied to your package price.  Completing this step ensures a spot on our calendar and places the studio on retainer until your baby is born.  When your baby is born, you would contact the studio within 48 hours to schedule the newborn session.
