Pikesville Newborn Session at a Glance
A 13-Minute Drive from Pikesville to a Calm, Light-Filled Studio
From Pikesville, my Timonium studio takes about thirteen minutes northeast — I-695 to the I-83 north exit, or Reisterstown Road north for a slightly slower but scenic alternative. The studio is fully equipped and ready when you arrive — you bring nothing but the baby.
The studio is set up so you don’t need to think about anything once you arrive:
You bring the baby. I handle the rest.
What Pikesville Families Get with Their Newborn Session
Newborn sessions at my studio are posed sessions — what some families call classic newborn photography. The studio is set up specifically for newborn safety and quality: warm controlled temperature, professional lighting, soundproofed rooms, and an extensive collection of wraps, props, and baskets — a fully-equipped environment that consistently produces gallery-grade results.
Your baby will be photographed:
Sessions last two to three hours. That sounds long, but it moves easily because we work around feeds, naps, and any pauses your baby needs.
Why Pikesville Families Choose Ana Koska Photography
I’ve been photographing newborns for over fifteen years — full-time newborn specialization. Newborns require careful posing, specialized lighting setup, and someone who’s seen everything that can happen during a session. That’s what fifteen years of full-time newborn work gives you.
My work was recognized by Expertise.com among Baltimore’s Best Newborn Photographers in 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2024.
Newborn sessions start at $600 for the MINI package (5 digital images and a gallery of 20). The RUBY package is $900 (10 digital images, 50-70 gallery), and DIAMOND is $1,100 (20 digital images, 50-70 gallery). Each package includes a 2-3 hour studio session with Ana.

When to Book Your Newborn Session
The best time to schedule a newborn session is during your second trimester, before things get hectic. Booking early secures a window in your due-date range.
The actual session happens within the first five to fourteen days after your baby is born — when newborns still curl easily and sleep deeply.
Most Pikesville families deliver at Sinai Hospital in northwest Baltimore — part of the LifeBridge Health system, about five to seven minutes from Pikesville. Some families also choose Northwest Hospital in Randallstown (also LifeBridge Health) or GBMC in Towson. Wherever you deliver, once you’re settled at home, call or message me and we schedule the session for whatever day works best in that first two-week window.
Pikesville Newborn Photography Notes
Pikesville sits in northwest Baltimore County — one of the area’s most established suburban communities, with deep roots going back to the historic Sudbrook Park planned community of 1889. Today it’s anchored by the LifeBridge Health corridor (Sinai Hospital just minutes away) and the Old Court Road commercial corridor. Families here often span multiple generations in the same community. The studio is thirteen minutes northeast via I-695 or Reisterstown Road.
Many of the parents I photograph from Pikesville are families from many backgrounds — first child or fifth, whatever your story. My experience spans the same Baltimore County families I’ve been photographing for over fifteen years. Pikesville is part of my broader Maryland newborn photography service area, with regular families from across northwest Baltimore County.
Pikesville Family Reviews
“We have used Ana for over 6 years now (since I was pregnant with my daughter) and we absolutely love her sooo much. She is amazing for maternity photos… and even better for newborn photos. When we first started our relationship with Ana I asked if we could keep getting photos of our daughter every year and every year that are simply amazing. Ana is a Mom herself so she knows just what to do to bring out the best in your kids. She was really managed to capture our daughter’s spirit and her photography is simply breathtaking.”

Pikesville families don’t need to prepare anything at home — reserved parking is right at the studio door.
When should we book if delivering at Sinai Hospital?
Book during your second trimester to secure your due-date window. Sinai Hospital (LifeBridge Health) in northwest Baltimore is the most popular delivery choice for Pikesville families — just five to seven minutes away. If you deliver at Northwest Hospital (also LifeBridge Health) or GBMC in Towson, the timing is the same — the actual session happens within the first five to fourteen days after your baby is born.
Can siblings and family be in the session?
Yes. Sibling and parent portraits are part of the session. We typically do those first while everyone is fresh, then move to baby-only setups. Many Pikesville families bring older siblings — the studio is calm and child-friendly.
