Diana Jex Photography

Diana Jex Photography Sonoma County based photographer specializing in newborn, maternity and family portraits. Capturing the precious moments in our lives is one of my passions.

I am always inspired by children and families because of their genuine spirit and energy. I have two kids of my own that give me a ton of inspiration. I like to approach photography in an organic way, using natural light and a lot of play. I want to create beautiful images that you will love today, tomorrow and for years to come. Enough about me! Let's hear about you! I'd love to meet you and your family.

📍 Location Spotlight: Petaluma. 🌾 This is one of my favorite spots to shoot golden hour family sessions! The soft light and open fields here are absolutely breathtaking and create that dreamy, sunkissed glow we all love. It’s easily accessible and offers gorgeous backdrops for every family. I am currently booking sessions only a few sessions in December! Let’s get yours scheduled here.

👋 Hi, I’m Diana - Your Family Storyteller! 👋 You see the photos, but I wanted to pop in and say hello! I’m a family photographer based right here in Petaluma, serving the beautiful families of Napa, Marin, and Sonoma Counties.

My favorite thing about my job? Capturing the real, messy, belly-laughing moments that you’ll frame and cherish forever.

When I’m not behind the camera, you can find me on the tennis court or walking my dogs.

Swinging into Golden Hour in Tiburon! ☀️ Seriously, is there a more perfect backdrop than this? This session had all the best ingredients: incredible energy from this fun family, that gorgeous golden Marin light, and a view that captures the very best of the Bay Area—the glittering bay and a glimpse of the Golden Gate Bridge! Watching these moments of pure joy on the swing is what it’s all about. Every laugh, every hug, bathed in sunshine. A truly magical evening creating memories that belong on a wall!

Drop a ☀️ if you love golden hour photos as much as I do!

👗 What to Wear to Your Family Photo Session: My Top 3 Tips! 👚 One of the most common questions I get is, “What should we wear?” It doesn’t have to be stressful! Here are my simple rules for picture-perfect outfits: 1. Focus on coordinating colors, not matching. Think earth tones, soft pastels, or complementary colors. 2. Prioritize comfort. If the kids are itchy or restricted, it shows! 3. Add texture! Corduroy, knit sweaters, lace, or denim add beautiful dimension to your photos. 👉 Save this post for your next session planning!

❤️ Years of Love, Captured in the Redwoods. ❤️ Every time I get to photograph this incredible family, it feels like coming home. I’ve watched these sweet girls grow up over the years, each one blossoming into their own unique, wonderful personality. This location is an absolute dream—the towering, majestic redwoods providing a canopy of magic, right next to the beautiful rolling vineyards. A true slice of Sonoma County heaven! Thank you for trusting me with your memories year after year!

Sonoma County magic! ✨ I absolutely loved returning to these stunning hills and golden vineyards for this family’s recent photo session. The light was incredible, and the scenery felt straight out of a painting. It’s always a treat seeing this wonderful family, and their sweet, spirited kids made the session so much fun.
