I’ve had my daughters baby photos taken twice with Willow Baby Photography and I’ve had wonderful experiences. Denise and her assistant are great with babies. They can really captured a beautiful moment in time.

Can not recommend Denise highly enough! My family and I had a wonderful experience working with her and the photos are fabulous.

I love this place so much

Denise is truly magical! I’m extremely happy that I found her and was able to use her for my maternity and newborn photos (definitely more to come)! She is wonderful to work with and is amazing with both adults and newborns! The quality of her photos is unmatched! You will not regret having her be your photographer! I will forever cherish my baby’s photos and video! They are all amazing!! Can’t wait for our next session!!

I chose Denise among all others because I feel comfortable with her handling my newborn. She make sure herself and staff are immunization updated, sick-free and she also have years of experience handling newborns. I continue my baby first year with her including Christmas session and the one year cake smash. The pictures turn out so great and those are so dear for me to keep.

Willow Baby Photography/Denise is the very best of the best in every way! I wish I could give her more than 5 stars. She made an effort to make sure my son was comfortable in the environment/with her before starting. She was so great with him and was able to get lots of smiles! I could not be more happy with the way the photos came out! When I saw the video she made from the session it brought tears to my eyes. Willow Baby was able to capture the most special magical photos of my son. Not only is Denise the most talented photographer she also has the best customer service. She was always so quick to respond to my emails and the turn around time with the photos was great. I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to work with her and my family and I will treasure these photos forever. I look forward to using her for my sons one year cake smash in the near future.

One of the best decisions I have ever made was to go to Willow Baby! Denise took ever single precaution to make sure everything that touched my baby was perfectly sanitized and I felt super comfortable at her beautiful home studio. Honestly, we had second thoughts and then my friends told me that i would regret not getting these pictures of my 3 month old. I decided to go through with the session and was completely at ease with the entire session. Then once we got the gallery back we were so blown away with every single image!! Dont hesitate and do not go with anyone other than Denise. Dont take chances with this sort of session - go to the best baby photographer in Silicon Valley!!

I was a new mom looking for a reputable photographer for my soon to be newborn. As moms do these days I sought out the best through recommendations from friends on FB. Denise Photography stood out the most. They returned my calls within 24 hours and I booked a Fresh 48 session as well as a Newborn session 2 weeks after my little man came along. Everything went perfect! They were accommodating to the timing of my little guy making his entry. They arrived at the hospital on time and I have some of the most amazing Fresh 48 pictures of my precious boy. Two weeks following my blended family of 7 arrived for family photos along with newborn pictures. Everything went smoother than I could have ever imagined. I wish I could take Denise home with me -- her technique with my son was nothing less than astonishing. He slept through everything she / we put him through for these pictures. All because of Stevie. I cant wait to go back this Christmas for some more family pictures.Thank you Denise----

I was pregnant at the time when I found Denise through yelp. I was needing someone to take photos of my newborn once she was born. Since this was my first baby I was very anxious, I wanted everything to be perfect. I searched and searched and Willow Baby Photography was the one that caught my eye. In January 2014, my husband and I took our little girl to Denises home. I was very nervous--I wasnt sure how the baby was going to react. I was amazed at how comfortable the 3 of us felt. She made us feel welcomed and made sure it was warm and cozy for my newborn. She was very professional and very calm. She really is amazing and I absolutely loved each and every photo that was taken. I even shed a few tears looking at the pictures (I still do). Were excited to take our baby girl to Willow Baby Photography for her Smash Cake session. Thank you, Denise for creating such wonderful memories for our family!

Cant even begin to express how amazing Denise is, but Ill try. Ive worked with kids for the better part of 20+ years. I train staff to work with kids everyday, and Denise is one of those people that just gets it. Not only is she super easy to work with, but she is an absolute MASTER of her photography craft. We did newborn pictures and 1 year old pics and they are pure amazing. So glad we will have them for ever!

I searched for the very best newborn photographer in the bay area and finally settled on Denise at Willow Baby. My OBGYN recommended her to me since she had used her for both of her babies. My shy two year old daughter fell in love with her which was a miracle since she never warms up to strangers. Turns out, Denise is a former kindergarten teacher and has a true love for working with siblings.I appreciated how she is very upfront with prices and she doesnt ask you to spend anymore nor nickel and dime you. The prices were great since you get the edited high resolution images and get them printed wherever you like. We spent far less on this session than we did with our older daughter and got twice as many images (plus they were sooo much better).Once we arrived I was just completely amazed that my fussy baby never made a peep during the entire 2 and half hour session, even when she woke up and was being posed for pictures. Denise is a true baby whisperer. I know others have said that but you wont believe it until you see it. My pictures are the best newborn photos that I have ever seen! Denise at Willow Baby Photography is the very best photographer in the bay area hands down! My entire new mothers group are all going to her for the 6 month baby pictures and One Year Cake Smash pictures!

Denise’s work and creativity is flawless. Her imagination to create such interesting and sweet portraits is like nothing I’ve seen before.

Just loved working with this sweet baby girl!

Love Denise & her professionalism! I attended a workshop she co-owns with another great photographer & have nothing but good things to say about not only her as a person but how well of a business she runs! she knows her stuff & is great with explaining in great detail what people are looking for! If youre looking for an awesome photographer, or taking one of the workshops she offers, I would highly recommend her services!Last week, I took my second workshop with Stevie since I was so pleased with the newborn workshop and decided to do her family workshop. Again, walked away feeling like I was taught some things my sessions were greatly lacking. So excited to implement some things into my workflow and get started on a better family portfolio!

The best photographer in our area.

I had really high expectations for this newborn photo session and Denise did not disappoint! Her relaxed manner and beautiful Willow Glen home were the perfect outing for my new baby girl. I cant tell you how many compliments we get on our infant photos from everyone! I showed them off to my maternity yoga class and they went crazy - my maternity yoga teacher asked to hang some of them in her studio!I had all these ideas and Denise made all my visions come out way better than I could have dreamed. She is just a true baby whisperer. My NICU preemie baby has not been the easiest baby but with Denises calming way and gentle rocking motions she slept the entire time. Denise just knows how to read the infant cues. She even helped us with our new carseat and stroller.If you want the number one newborn photographer in the bay area then you need to go to Willow Baby Photography. Honestly, you can only get these pictures once n a lifetime so I wouldnt risk going with anyone else.

Willow Baby Photography/Denise Lewinski is simply amazing! I have been to the top rated Los Gatos baby photographer, the highest rated newborn photographer of Palo Alto, AND the Best of the Bay newborn Photographer in San Francisco for my previous two children. After receiving a birth announcement from one of my husband’s clients (he is an OBGYN in Los Gatos) I immediately researched Willow Baby and fell in LOVE with Denise’s organic style.This past year we have been to 4 photo sessions at her lovely home studio in Willow Glen. The newborn photo session was so much more fun and relaxed compared to the other two photographers. She is a natural when working with older siblings, she made them feel relaxed so that they actually had real smiles in the family pictures! I literally cried happy tears when I saw the amazing video she made for me. I mean-seriously-this lady has a gift for capturing more than just a picture. The six month session was just as amazing with a gallery filled with chubby hands and genuine smiles. The One Year Smash the Cake session was beyond incredible! We got to choose any idea we wanted and she came up with the most exquisite set! Every little detail was taken care of all the way to the yellow ducks for the bubble bath scene!The only thing I regret is not going to her for my other two children. The difference in galleries is stark-her gift is just incredible.I was at a playdate for my Las Madres group and everyone was showing their baby pictures. I showed my gallery and every single person agreed that mine were the best new baby photos they had ever seen.

I truly cant say enough wonderful things about Denise/Willow Baby Photography and the work she does. I have worked with her for pregnancy photos, newborn photos and even continue to get photos through her now when my daughter is 18 months old. She has a natural gift and patience working with babies- she makes everyone feel so comfortable and her photos speak for themselves. I have looked at many other professional baby photographers photos on Pinterest and other sites online and i have yet to find someone that compares. The other amazing thing is she always has new ideas or is up to try whatever! I follow her on facebook and im always amazed at the props and poses she comes up with. If i could add another star i would, wonderful to work with and wonderful photographs that will be cherished for a lifetime!

Denise and her assistant are true Baby whisperers! Willow Baby Photography was recommended by not only several friends but also by my OBGYN! She had taken her babies in to Willow baby as well and her pictures were amazing! I was so excited to go and I can tell you that Denise did not disappoint!From the moment you enter her beautiful home you know that you are in good hands. Her studio was immaculate which really spoke to my OCD LOL. Our baby didnt ever cry or fuss because Denise is so gentle with her posing and the room was the perfect temperature for a little one. The props and set ups she has are more extensive than any other newborn photographer in the Bay Area! We couldnt believe how sweet those tiny little newborn clothes and tiny stuffed animals and hats are! I was so impressed with how clean everything was.I love the fact that she didnt use a bright flash when taking the photos. I read that flash is bad for newborns under 30 days so this was really important to me as well.We got our gallery back within two weeks and I literally cried tears of happiness. The pictures are beyond amazing and my baby will now forever be captured in this sweet newborn stage that you can never get back. I have to say that Denise also made me look amazing in the photos LOL I still had baby weight and was slightly puffy at the time of the session but Denise worked her magic and I actually looked amazing in the photos. I am going back for the six month session as well as the One Year Cake Smash session and the Mini Christmas session!! If you want the best newborn photographer in the Bay Area than you should book Denise. Every single newborn gallery that I have seen of hers was perfection (including my friends triplet gallery and my other friend who has 3 kids - all 3 of her babies had pictures done at Willow Baby).I am so in love with my sweet and amazing pictures!
