South Jersey Newborn Photographer

Crafting Calm, Baby-Led Experiences for families who want to slow down.


Thoughtfully guided newborn, maternity, and family photography created with intention and heart, so you feel supported and cared for every step of the way. Based in Cherry Hill, NJ serving families throughout South Jersey and the Philadelphia area.

South Jersey newborn photographer Maria Larsen Photography.

Helping you document 'the good old days' while you’re still in them.

Hi, I'm Maria, a Cherry Hill, NJ based lifestyle newborn, maternity, and family photographer, serving South Jersey and the greater Philadelphia area. As a South Jersey newborn photographer, I create timeless, light-filled images for busy moms who want to turn their memories into frame-worthy heirlooms.


My philosophy is simple: to create a fun, relaxed, and meaningful experience by taking care of all the details. So you can just show up and be present with your loved ones. No stiff poses or stressful sessions; just real connection, captured with care.


These aren’t just photos for now, they’re keepsakes you’ll treasure long after the toys are packed away and the babies have grown. So let’s create images you’ll be proud to hang on your walls.


If you’re ready to preserve this season, I’d love to begin planning your session together.

"Our newborn shoot was just as wonderful as the maternity shoot. Maria made sure we were comfortable with poses, props, and didn’t rush us at all, which is so kind when working with a newborn."

As a newly postpartum mom getting your picture taken isn’t high on the list of things you want to do, but Maria made me and my family feel so comfortable for our newborn session.

Love Notes

Expectant mother standing beneath cherry blossoms at Knight Park in Collingswood, NJ during a spring maternity session.

It was our first photoshoot ever, and we loved the experience! I was in pain, swollen and gave birth in May with preeclampsia and I look back at the photos and I look amazing.

Before we even met her, Maria made the entire process feel personal and got to know us. Communication was always clear & transparent so we knew exactly what to expect every step of the way.

Our experience with Maria was amazing. She stayed in contact and was so patient and understanding when my pregnancy didn’t go as planned. Maria puts her whole heart into her work and it really shows!

Love Notes

Extended family session at Fabulous Flower Farm in Lumberton, NJ photographed by a South Jersey family photographer.

Trying to coordinate and photograph 3 little boys under the age of 3 is no easy task but she captured them and our whole family beautifully.
