Meeting your baby is one of the most life-defining moments for a family, and it is worth the small effort it takes to document through a posed newborn photography session. The newness, the love, the excitement, the exhaustion, and the joy, all contribute to days that disappear in a blink. Newborns are beautiful and unique and truly an honor to capture though posed newborn photography.
I offer a unique combination of lifestyle newborn photography and posed newborn photos - all done in the comfort of your home. As a photographer, I am deeply inspired by the intimacy and authenticity that unfolds within the walls of your own sanctuary. I love to capture the gentle hues of natural light and the genuine connections captured in the cozy corners of your home.
Welcoming a newborn into your family is a milestone overflowing with love and joy. My aim is to document these fleeting moments with a delicate touch, allowing the purity of emotion to shine through each frame. By embracing the warmth and familiarity of your home environment, I create images that encapsulate the essence of your family's unique story.
From the soft morning light streaming through bedroom windows to the quiet moments shared in the nursery's gentle glow, I seek to preserve the beauty of these early days in the most authentic way possible. Every photograph is a testament to the love that fills your home, captured in the most natural and unguarded moments.
But it's not just about the surroundings; it's also about capturing the genuine connections that make your family's bond so special. Whether it's the tender caress of a parent's hand or the first time a big brother or big sisters holds their sibling for the first time, I strive to preserve these fleeting moments of love and togetherness.
After the lifestyle family photos with your newborn are complete (about 45 minutes), I set up a small studio in your home and finish the session with posed photos of your newborn. These include backdrops and props that I bring. We can also incorporate any special items you would like into your newborn photoshoot.
The result? A timeless collection of images that will serve as cherished memories of this beautiful chapter in your family's story.
"She has a great eye for shots and captured a ton of great photographs in no time! She was so extremely patient when our newborn was fussy. She had the photos and book edited and ready for us in just a number of days. Love the photos SO much!"
When you schedule posed newborn photos, a "What to Expect and How to Prepare Guide" is the first step in ensuring your newborn photoshoot experience is fantastic! I'll also ask you a few questions so that I pack the right props and am prepared for the lighting in your home. Make sure to look at the Lifestyle Newborn Portfolio. The Posed Newborn Photo package includes lifestyle photos too! This is because it usually takes the baby a little while to fall asleep once I arrive. I like to take advantage of the time and capture some family photos while we wait for them to drift off.
Once your little one arrives, text me to schedule a date as soon as possible so we can capture their squishy newborn rolls! Posed newborn shoots are completed in the first 2 weeks of life.
This ensures they will be sleepy enough for me to pose them. Posed photos can take some time depending on their sleepiness but it is so worth it!
A good tip is styling outfits that match with your home decor. Light and airy is also a popular look that photographs really well. Just keep it simple and avoid logos and patterns.
The photo shoot will last about 2-2.5 hours, with family photos completed during the first 45 minutes. The posed section takes the longest. But, you can relax and just watch during this time!
This session is completed during the first 2 weeks of life and is done in the comfort of your home. The session lasts approximately 2-2.5 hours.
