Lifestyle Newborn Session
Once I arrive at your home, I'll scout out the perfect pockets of light. Natural light is the best kind of light. In addition to photographing in the nursery, I want to capture the intimate moments with your baby...cuddling in bed, lounging on the couch, or maybe enjoying coffee in the kitchen. Don't stress about having a perfectly clean home. I like getting creative with small spaces. Sometimes all you need is a window. I recommend giving a good feed before I arrive to have a content baby during the session. Don't worry if you need to give an additional feeding during the session. I love capturing those moments too! :-) Your session will be relaxed and enjoyable. I want you to look back at these memories many years from now, possibly even with your grandchildren one day, and be able to remember exactly how much love you felt for your brand new little one. <3
What To Wear
Dress yourself first. Flowy and simplistic neutrals are always beautiful. Have your partner compliment you without being too matchy. Steer away from words or images on shirts that may distract from baby. Simple basics with more texture and fewer patterns are ideal. You both want to look and feel comfortable. Less is more for baby. Simple rompers or a plain bodysuit are my favorite. Neutrals are also great for siblings.
What To Expect
I like to keep props and outfit changes to a minimum. This helps to keep baby happy and the focus remains on the connection with your little one. Some items parents include are a swaddle blanket (stretchy are my favorite!), hat or simple bow, moses basket or lounger like the Snuggle Me. Plan to have me at your home for 1-2 hours.
