Cottleville, MO Photographer
Memories You Can Hold
From the anticipation of pregnancy to those tiny newborn details, these are the moments you’ll want to remember.
I provide a heartfelt, guided photography experience for Cottleville families who want beautiful maternity, newborn and baby portraits without the stress.
With wardrobe guidance, professional hair and makeup for maternity, and a calm, baby-centered approach for newborn sessions, I’ll take care of the details so you can simply enjoy the experience.
You Deserve to Be in These Photos—Not Just Behind the Camera.
Hi, I’m Amber. After over 20 years of raising my own babies, I know how quickly these seasons pass. I photograph Cottleville families through pregnancy, the newborn days and milestones throughout baby’s first year from my full-service O’Fallon studio.
You don’t need to know how to pose or have everything figured out before you arrive. I’ll guide you through styling, posing and the session itself so you can walk away with beautiful portraits—and actually enjoy making them.
Why Cottleville families choose Sargent Photography
“Amber was so patient with my newborn! She was pretty fussy during the whole shoot, but Amber worked her magic and was able to get some beautiful shots of my baby girl. It takes a special kind of person to be able to work with babies, but she did it effortlessly!”
