Meet the Artist
Hey there! My name is Stevie and I am so glad you're visiting my little corner of the internet! I’m a newborn, child, and family photographer living in Orange County, California. I opened my business 15 years ago and I have never looked back.
I capture natural moments every mom wants to remember. It is the emotional connection of the family, real and raw.

Soft folds. Tiny fingers. That peaceful, posed stillness you only see in the first couple of weeks.
In the studio at Stevie Cruz Photography, here in Orange County, California, every posed newborn session is baby-led and calm. Gentle transitions. Warm environment. Years of experience guiding each tiny movement safely and patiently.
This isn’t just a photo for your phone.
It’s the image you’ll walk past in your hallway years from now.
The one that takes you right back to how small they once were.
If you’re expecting in Anaheim Hills, Yorba Linda, Brea, Tustin, Irvine, or surrounding Orange County areas, it’s never too early to reserve your newborn session.
You’ll never regret having this.
A first birthday session isn’t about the cake.
It’s about who they are right now.
The serious expressions.
The belly laughs.
The frosting-covered hands reaching for you when it’s all over.
At Stevie Cruz Photography here in Orange County, California, first birthday portraits are simple, timeless, and personality-driven — so when that tiny high chair is long gone, you still have something that feels like them.
If your little one is turning one soon, I’d love to create something meaningful for your family.
Because one year changes everything.
And you deserve to remember it beautifully.

That wobbly stance.
Those curious fingers.
The way they look at you before doing something “brave.”

The way they curl into you like you’re their whole world… because right now, you are. 🤍
There is something sacred about a brand new mother holding her baby for the first time.
The quiet awe.
The disbelief.
The exhaustion mixed with a love you didn’t know your heart could hold.
These are the days that blur together.
The ones you’ll barely remember because you were surviving on little sleep and pure instinct.
And yet — this is the beginning of everything.
