There’s something really powerful about photographing a family in their own space — especially in those early, sacred newborn days. That’s why I love lifestyle newborn sessions. There’s no need to leave the house, pack a diaper bag, or stress about getting anywhere on time. I come to you, and we capture the beauty of your life exactly as it is. I will travel within an hour from the studio.

These sessions are calm, slow, and full of heart. I bring what I need — a few wraps, a neutral swaddle, a space heater if we need it, some props — but mostly, I work with what’s already there: your arms, your light, your love.

We’ll move through a loose flow that includes cuddles on the couch, feeding moments if you want them, baby in the crib or bassinet, nursery details, and of course, parents and siblings loving on this brand-new little person. No stiff posing. No props (unless requested). Just connection, comfort, and real life.

The goal isn’t perfection — it’s authenticity. I want you to remember the way your newborn curled up into your chest, how tiny their fingers looked in yours, how your home felt in those early days. These aren’t just baby pictures — they’re memories.

If you’ve never done a lifestyle session before, don’t worry. I’ll guide you every step of the way. I’ll help with lighting, posing, and making sure you feel comfortable and relaxed. All you have to do is love on your baby — I’ll take care of the rest.
