Classic Lifestyle Newborn Session

I photographed this simple and classic lifestyle newborn session in the unimaginably distant past of 2019. This is another session that was lined up and ready to post when everything went sideways last year. I just couldn’t let it go without sharing. Better late than never, right? I actually photographed this sweet family once again since this session. It’s hard to believe that this baby has already turned into a toddler, full of opinions and tons of personality.

I love all the sweet moments I captured of this new family of three at this session. I love the way mom and dad’s love for each other and their brand new little guy exudes from every photo. And I love that this baby gave me equal parts of his sleepy, calm side and his wide-eyed, engaged side. He was such a pleasure to have in front of my camera.

Classic and Chic In Home Newborn Session

Last March, when the world suddenly shut down, I had a bunch of sessions all cued up and ready to post–including this classic in home newborn session. But when everything turned upside down, it somehow didn’t feel right to keep sharing content from normal times. And yes, this baby is now fully well over a year old, but I love this shoot too much not to share anyway. This sweet little man and his gorgeous parents were an absolute joy to photograph and made my job so easy.

This session is also full of so many beautiful neutral tones. When people ask me what to wear for their session, I often advise them not to shy away from color. I love color in photos and the vibrancy it can bring to a shot. But I think this session makes an excellent argument for what the perfect neutral palette can bring to photos too. The truth is, I want every family I photograph to be themselves in front of my camera. I want them to look at their photos and see their own style and taste, not mine. I want the interest to be in their love and joy and bond above anything else. This family’s style in their home and clothing set the perfect backdrop for the love to shine through in their photos.

A Classic and Fun In Home Newborn Session

I was lucky enough to photograph each one of these three sweet kids as a newborn. Honestly, every session was one that I could easily describe as the best. As babies, they each had their own unique look and a personality to match. There was this session from a couple of years ago – big sister with all that dark hair – and her brother’s curls!. And this – a relaxed, peaceful first baby newborn session of the most content and wide-eyed little guy. (Only first babies get peaceful sessions, by the way.) I’m happy to say that their newest addition brought her A game to this session. And her brother and sister made sure that I didn’t get too bored with a very cooperative and smiley newborn. Goodness knows I very much appreciate that because I love some chaos.

Genuinely though, I love when kids are able to just be kids during a session. I’m not looking for serious posed little people smiling stiffly for the camera. I want them jumping on beds and hugging each other a bit too tightly. I want to see their personalities! This family gives me that every time and I love them for it.

So here are some of my favs of my favs.

A colorful in home newborn session

I photographed this sweet baby last year and I loved everything about this session. It’s so important to me that the families who I photograph feel comfortable with me and in front of my camera. I know it’s not always the most natural feeling to snuggle together while someone who you just met hovers over you. So I do my best to keep things light and easy. Having said that, some families are just naturals. These guys and their adorable baby? Naturals. They were quick to laugh and I could just feel the love they shared. It was such a treat to document.

At newborn sessions, I really enjoy looking for the natural, authentic moments. With toddlers and older kids, it’s easy. They create their own stories and I’m just there to make pictures of them. With babies, those moments are quieter and more subtle. The memories that I want to preserve for my clients are the hours spent shushing and rocking, the way a newborn can fit just right on your chest or snuggled into your neck, the feel of their little hands on your face. It’s not long before they’re constantly on the move and that phase is over. It’s my job to not just take pretty pictures (although that too), but to freeze and preserve those moments. It’s a job I take very seriously.
