Mobile, AL Newborn Photography
If you have found yourself here, congratulations must be in order so... CONGRATULATIONS!!
Children are a gift from the Lord (Psalm 127:3), and the newborn days are a sacred beginning. My Mobile, AL newborn photography is a reflection of my heart and mission to capture the first moments of your baby's life with reverence, patience, and purpose. My vision is rooted in creating timeless images that celebrate God’s design, the beauty of new life, and the love that surrounds your growing family. Every session is approached prayerfully and intentionally, with the hope that these photographs will one day remind you of just how good and faithful God is.
After having my own baby in 2023, I unfortunately experienced just how fast time seems to fly. Everyone told me to soak it all in and I remember holding that sweet baby girl and thinking to myself, “How could I ever forget this?” But, here we are in 2026 and I will admit, I don’t quite remember it all. I remember the bits and pieces I have photos and videos of and I am kicking myself for not having more.
Baby Photography Portfolio, Mobile, AL
Capturing your baby as the star of the show is exactly what I'm after. Their back rolls, big sleepy yawns, and fuzzy newborn skin surrounded by a simple white backdrop and soft sheets. I will make sure that your newborn photos are authentic and real; exactly how you want to remember your tiny and squishy baby. There is no rush at a newborn session. Baby-led time means we soothe, change, and feed just as much as you little one wants. After all, we want to capture and remember the sweetest sleepy moments!
Simple doesn't have to be boring!
I offer Mobile, AL newborn sessions on Tuesday and Thursday mornings in the studio or in the comfort of your own home. My studio is conveniently located on Highway 181 in Fairhope, AL. It is a private space where you will feel comfortable and relaxed.
Alex is the BEST! She did our newborn session and was so patient with my baby, who wanted to stay awake and party. This fall we did a Christmas session with her and we were naturally running late. She was so accommodating to make sure we got the best photos for my baby's first Christmas. We've already booked her for her first birthday shoot and cannot wait! -Mary Beth Massey
In-Home Newborn Session
HIghly recommend Alex Ishee Photography! I was extremely nervous how newborn photos were going to go with our two week old and Alex was so understanding and had so much patience with our baby that she made the experience very enjoyable. -Madison Kiley
Studio Newborn Session
Alex did the best job with our newborn pictures! She managed to capture the most beautiful pictures, even with a fussy newborn and a busy six year old. She was punctual, professional, and very accommodating to our schedule. I would recommend her to anyone -- she did a fantastic job! -Morgan Abell
In-Home Newborn Session
The Newborn Photography Studio
A place to be pampered
I have a growing client closet for moms to choose from! The closet ranges from size XS to XXL. I am constantly buying new dresses to add! When purchasing dresses for the client closet, I am always thinking about postpartum bodies and what will be the most comfortable and flattering for that time. (Nursing-friendly options are all a plus too!) A full break down of my client closet is sent after booking your session so you can look through everything and decide which dress you would like to wear! Included in that information guide is details about the size, fit, fabric details, etc. about each dress.
I also have several newborn outfits as well as swaddles and swaddle bows.
Any clothing item (swaddle, dress, diaper cover, etc) that comes into contact with you or your baby is washed in All Free & Clear and returned before the next session to ensure a safe environment for each family and baby!
Enjoy complimentary hair and makeup at the studio when you book a Signature Experience Session!

Preparing- I will send you a guide to view my client closet and choose what you would like to wear! Once you've picked your dress, I will help you choose the rest of the family's outfits as well if you would like. I also send an information guide to help you walk into the session prepared and confident!

Proofs and prints- I will send you a proofing gallery for you to decide which images you want for your final gallery (not necessary for Signature Experience).

FAQ
When will I receive my final images?
You will receive a proofing gallery of all of your images within 1 week of your session. These photos have soft editing completed. You can decide to upgrade for the full gallery at this time. It will take 1 more week after your images are chosen and the invoice is paid to get the final gallery completed. (Signature Experience clients will receive their images within 2 weeks from the session-no proofing gallery necessary.)
How will I receive my images?
You will receive your photos via a private online gallery where you will be able to favorite, download, and share your images at both web resolution, and high resolution. You can also order prints or albums. Not tech-savy? No worries! I include a guide to walk you through the best way to download your images.
How many photos will be included in my gallery?
Each session has different offerings! I send a full break down in my initial email to you. I offer different sessions types to accommodate a range of budgets!
Do you help with posing?
100% from your head to your toes! As a Mobile, AL newborn photographer, I think that one of the most important parts of my job is to make you feel comfortable and confident. All you need to do is show up and I will work with you to pose you in comfortable, authentic, and flattering ways to capture the best angles, lighting, and the most beautiful version of you. Of course I would be happy to accommodate any requests as well!
Can I print my photos?
Yes, you will have printing rights to the edited images you receive. You can also order prints through me with my professional print shop, and I can help make this process easier for you!
What if I have my baby early or go over my due date?
Not a problem! This is why I only take a handful of newborn sessions each month. I am able to leave plenty of flexibility to accommodate changes if needed!
What does baby-led mean?
Baby-led sessions just means that I let baby call the shots. If baby isn’t a fan of something we are doing, we pivot. A lot of times, we are able to come back to it after the baby has calmed down. Rather than forcing a baby to do what I want because it was part of the plan, we focus on baby’s queues. After all, we want the photos to be of a happy baby! Not an upset one. Because of this, a baby-led session does not have a firm time schedule.
Do you offer a full first year package?
I absolutely do! I love getting to watch those sweet babies grow their first year! This bump to baby package even includes a 10x10 30 image heirloom album which you can choose to use for a single session or combine the whole first year.
How do I book a newborn session?
Visit the "Contact Me" page and fill out a contact sheet to begin the process. After your first initial inquiry email, I will send you a guide with all of my session offerings. If you find that we will be a good fit, just let me know which session you would like to book and I will send you a personalized booking link. Once that booking link is complete (contract signed and $50 deposit is paid), you are officially booked!
