  • The Iconic Set by Boston Baby Photos

    I'm an award winning baby & toddler photographer, and I want to help you IMPROVE the photos you take of your toddler with your PHONE...so that you can put your phone down and laugh and play and BE with your child.

    I'm Jess McDaniel.

    For more than twenty years, I’ve been an award-winning baby and family photographer specializing in lifestyle photography of babies and toddlers. Leading my company, Boston Baby Photos, all this time means visiting the homes of hundreds of babies and toddlers every year.

    Photographers who've been in business as long as I have often look for ways to use their expertise for something bigger and more meaningful, either to educate newer photographers who want to learn the craft, or giving back to the community through volunteer work. I’m a big fan of volunteer work and do a lot of it myself, but my real passion right now is PARENTS.

    Teaching parents how to take better photos with their phones gives everyone equal access to good photography and helps people capture special family memories with their very own hands. Learn more.
