There is nothing sweeter than a newborn baby. That season of motherhood goes by so quickly. Packing away those precious newborn onesies is always a bittersweet task. That’s why I love capturing in-home newborn sessions! They press pause on that season of life and turn it into an album that you can cherish forever. I’m a lifestyle photographer, meaning that I value unscripted moments that feel more natural and less posed. As a lifestyle photographer, I prefer in-home newborn sessions over traditional studio sessions for many reasons.

What is an in-home session? It’s as simple as shooting your photography session in your home versus traveling to a different shooting location or studio. In-home sessions can be done with virtually any session type! A newborn, couples or family session can all be photographed in-home. Let’s dive into some reasons why you should consider an in-home session!

After you’ve booked your session, the next thing you may think about is “What will I wear?” or “What will everyone in my family wear?” It’s an important question because the wardrobe you select for your session truly has a major impact on the outcome of your gallery! Selecting pieces with great color palette coordination, movement and texture in the fabric, photogenic and flattering patterns can really give your images that extra layer of “Wow!” But it can be overwhelming if style just isn’t your thing or you’re too busy to shop around for the perfect pieces.
