I remember those first days when I brought home my babies. Well, if I’m being honest, there’s so much I don’t remember. As much as it was wonderful to have a baby, it was also overwhelming and exhausting. How could anyone remember the most important details of those precious days? Luckily, I took pictures of my kids from the very beginning so I can look back and see just how tiny their fingers and toes were. Just how chubby those cheeks were.

When you invite me into your home for a Lifestyle Newborn Session all you have to do is be yourself. I photograph you and your baby exclusively in home because it eliminates the stress of having to round up your family, get them dressed and out the door. For new parents, it’s all about feeling relaxed in your home. I’ll arrive sometime in the morning and photograph you and your baby as you are, naturally. I’ll be with you for 1-2 hours, which leaves plenty of time in between if baby needs to be fed or changed. You have enough on your plate with this parenting thing, so there will be no awkward, stiff posing. I may ask you to embrace, lean in toward each other, or to share a kiss while cuddling baby. Maybe I’ll capture you holding baby in the kitchen while you share a cup of coffee, or while you lie on the sofa reading a book. Siblings are welcome during this session, of course. Snuggles from big brother or sister show just how much your new addition is loved already.

Especially during these pandemic days, I must mention how important the health of your family is to me. I’m fully vaccinated, will be wearing a mask for the entirety of our time together, and will sanitize my hands upon arriving at your home.
