About the studio:

The Fresh Focus studio is conveniently located at 41973 Sixth Street in Old Town Temecula, just behind the Wee Little Sprouts children's boutique. Our studio is located in a quaint building with a natural light shooting area and an ever-changing selection of fun, fresh furnishings and props. Studio sessions consist of indoor shots within the studio, and then if you child wants to, we go for a walk and explore the surrounding area. We have a number of great old buildings nearby that serve as excellent backdrops for photos, as well as a nearby park. This results in a variety of images.

If you prefer an on-location session, we will join you and your family at your favorite picturesque location or in the comfort of your own home to photograph your family.

We are not a "traditional" photography studio. Sessions are casual - we play peek-a-boo, talk about your child's favorite characters and toys...we've even been known to hunt for lizards and roly-polys! Sessions are never rushed and last anywhere from 30 minutes to 3 hours, depending on your child or family's individual needs. We schedule a limited number of sessions each day, so that your session can be flexible - for younger kids, we usually schedule around their nap and feeding times and just block out a few hours instead of strictly limiting our session to a particular timeframe.

The studio is also available for select events such as baby showers, trunk shows and other special events.
