What to Expect During Your Spring Portrait Session with Annie Whitaker Photography
A spring portrait session in Covington LA offers the most enchanting backdrop for your family’s storybook-style fine art. As the 100-year-old live oak trees on my private nine-acre property begin to bud, the soft Louisiana light creates a natural masterpiece.
I invite you to experience a stress-free morning among my climbing roses and wildflower fields. Every detail, from the vintage wardrobe I provide to the handcrafted Italian art I offer, ensures your memories become cherished heirlooms.

My Curated Styling and “Baby Whisperer” Touch
Your spring portrait session includes access to my curated studio wardrobe. I provide hundreds of vintage pieces from the 1920s through the 1950s for children. These knits and delicate fabrics complement the organic textures of my outdoor property. My twenty years of experience as the “Baby Whisperer” ensures even the youngest subjects feel calm and safe.
- Consultation: I plan your wardrobe and color palettes 2-3 months in advance.
- The Session: I maintain a gentle, patient pace focused on authentic connection.
- The Art: I help you select your favorites during a private viewing 1–2 weeks later.
The Italian Heirloom Difference
I believe your images deserve a physical home. Every spring photo session culminates in the creation of museum-grade art. My partner laboratory in Italy handcrafts each piece using 300-year archival paper. These materials meet the rigorous preservation standards used by the Library of Congress for historical documents. I offer a variety of products, from folio boxes to deckled-edge prints, where the quality remains unparalleled.
