For people not in the photography business, terms like newborn photography vs lifestyle newborn photography might not mean anything. But, lifestyle photography is very different from the newborn photography that was done in studios of years past.
Lifestyle newborn photography is a style of photography that is more focused on connection and love instead stiff posing. However, it is also not documentary style of photography. The way it is different is that it clients are guided into comfortable, flattering and sweet poses and interactions. And that is where the magic happens! The images captured will be of you loving, nuzzling and kissing your newborn (and family, too!). These poses will result in images you will cherish for a lifetime.
I love this stye of photography over a more rigid posed form of photography because it’s the most comfortable for the baby and the family! The baby will cuddle in their mom’s arms most of the session, just doing what babies do. There’s no stress over if the baby is sleeping or not. Your baby will just keep living their best life.
Doing a session in your home is the easiest for you and your family. There is no need to pack up and drive somewhere. I come to your home, where you are most comfortable and you will have more time to get ready. It can be done any time of year and in any home. But please know that your home does not need to be a spotless show home! I can help declutter the best spot in the home. It may be the master bedroom or even the dining room, or foyer! I’ll figure it out, you don’t have to stress about that.
Doing a session in your home is the best way to get the most authentic pictures of your family. While you are in your own home you will be more comfortable in front of the camera. I will be able to capture your family as you are and what makes your family great will really show through in the images. When I look at pictures done in someone’s home versus a studio or a park, the love and cuddling that can happen is just sweeter. In my eyes it is the best way to capture this very special and fleeting time in your life!
