Check out this beautiful newborn session!  This is considered to be more of a lifestyle type session rather than a studio session where the newborn is placed into poses.  I don’t do these all too often, but I jumped at the opportunity when this couple mentioned they preferred this style.  I loved capturing this family in their element.  In the comfort of their home, where they have the most adorable nursery.  This mom has the most amazing sense of style, and this dad did an amazing paint job on the walls.  I know it’s hard to tell because the images are in black and white, but this room looking incredible!

We also did some of the session in their bedroom as this is the place where they can relax and just enjoy their sweet baby boy!  All the natural light coming through the bedroom window was so beautiful!

And I have to add, working with this family is always incredible!  They are part of my Grow With Me Package, so I had the amazing opportunity to photograph their maternity pictures, now newborn, and next we’ll do their 6 months and one year sessions.  It’s so awesome to be able to watch these kiddos be brought into this world and grow over the course of a full year.

With all that being said, please check out some of my favorite images from their session with their 10 day old newborn baby boy!

If you or someone you know is expecting, feel free to message me about package options!  I’d love to chat with you!
