Family Photography In Sonoma County

WELCOME to Diana Jex Photography, where moments are not just captured, but crafted into timeless memories.

With a lens focused on authenticity and genuine connection, I have been dedicated to the art of newborn, maternity, and family photography since 2016. Nestled in the heart of Sonoma, Marin, and Napa counties, I am passionate about harnessing the beauty of natural light to illuminate your unique story.

My approach goes beyond a typical photo session – together, we will co-create a vision that speaks to the essence of your family. Each session is tailored to encapsulate the true nature of your bonds, resulting in photographs that are not just images but reflections of your genuine love.

My mission is for every family to not only see themselves in their photos but to feel deeply understood and positive about the entire experience. Let's turn your session into a cherished moment, an everlasting memory that goes beyond the click of the shutter.

High School Senior Portraits

Hi Everyone! I offer a truly personalized and creative approach to high school senior portraits in the Sonoma County and surrounding areas. I specialize in outdoor photo sessions and work closely with each senior to capture their unique personality and style against the breathtaking backdrops of Sonoma Valley’s vineyards, the rugged coastline of the Sonoma Coast, and the lush redwood forests of the Russian River area. I know you are gonna love it!

My services include customized location shoots that reflect each senior’s interests and hobbies, ensuring that your individuality shines through. With professional editing and retouching, I provide super high-quality images that are both stunning and authentic. Flexible portrait packages cater to different budgets and needs, while optional add-ons like family sessions and graduation announcements provide a comprehensive experience. Above all, my commitment to creating a fun and memorable experience ensures a comfortable environment where seniors can truly be themselves, resulting in timeless keepsakes that will be cherished for years to come.

A little About Diana Jex

not your average photographer

WELCOME and I am so happy you are here!

Please explore my site, where cherished moments come to life through the lens. Since my high school days, photography has been more than a passion—it's a family tradition. Introduced to this art by my father, we even transformed our bathroom into a makeshift darkroom. With a journey spanning back to those early years, I've been capturing the magic of family, newborn, and maternity moments since 2016.

With over a 1,000 photographed, my commitment is to ensure you not only have stunning images but also a seamless and enjoyable experience. From our initial connection, I guide you through every step, offering insights on styling, location suggestions, and addressing any concerns you may have.

During our sessions, I bring a presence that is both adaptable and attuned to the unique dynamics of each family. Whether your child is outgoing and full of energy or shy and in need of comfort, I've experienced it all and know how to capture those beautiful, authentic moments. My goal is for families to walk away from the session feeling satisfied with the images and uplifted by the positive experience.

So, if you're ready to embark on a photography journey that celebrates the uniqueness of your family, I invite you to reach out and book your session. Let's create timeless memories together!
