My studio is located in the heart of Katy, just 10 minutes from LaCenterra at Cinco Ranch, and I serve families across Grand Lakes, Seven Meadows, Houston, Richmond, and Fulshear.

Every session takes place in a calm, controlled environment I designed specifically for mothers and newborns. No rushing. No guessing. Only art created with deliberate care.

Why Katy families choose Paloma Schell

  • Focused exclusively on maternity and newborn photography since 2010
  • Baby-led posing rooted in newborn physiology, prioritizing safety at every step
  • A dedicated studio in Katy, TX, designed for the comfort of mothers and babies
  • Clean, timeless aesthetic: portraits made to be displayed with pride 30 years from now

A studio where you don’t have to think about anything.


I designed every detail of my studio to feel like a sanctuary. Carefully controlled lighting, a temperature-regulated environment for your baby’s comfort, and a calm atmosphere transform the natural anxiety of this season into genuine peace of mind.

From the moment you arrive, every step is thoughtfully guided so you can simply slow down, be present, and enjoy this fleeting chapter while beautiful, timeless portraits are created with intention and care.
