Babies are made for snuggles, and in those early days, you are their whole world. That’s the magic of newborn photography—capturing the way your baby fits perfectly in your arms, the way you breathe them in, and the overwhelming love and closeness that surrounds them. Lifestyle newborn sessions are about celebrating these moments just as they are—no posing, no rules. There’s no need for your baby to be asleep; we’ll simply let the day flow naturally, with plenty of time for snuggles, feeds, and all the love that fills your home.
When Should We Schedule?
Lifestyle newborn photography doesn’t come with rules or strict timelines. It’s all about what feels right for your family.
Brand-New Baby (First 2 Weeks): If you’re hoping to capture all the tiny details—delicate skin, tiny toes, and those blissful, sleepy stretches—the first two weeks after birth are perfect.
Settling In (2-4 Weeks): If you’d like a little time to adjust to life with your new baby, scheduling your session between 2-4 weeks gives you a chance to catch your breath. It’s a sweet spot for capturing those fleeting early days while giving you some time to settle into your new rhythm.
Wide-Eyed Wonder (6-12 Weeks): If you’d love photos of your baby looking into your eyes with that pure, unwavering love, 6-12 weeks is a beautiful time. By this stage, your baby may be more alert, making for some truly special, heart-melting moments.
As a mama myself, I know how quickly these days slip away. Whether it’s those sleepy snuggles or the first glimpses of their personality shining through, my goal is to bottle up this fleeting season for you to treasure forever.
Within 4 weeks, you’ll receive a beautiful gallery of hand-edited images, a keepsake of this incredible season of your life. You can order prints and products directly from your gallery, and I’ll be here to help every step of the way, ensuring you walk away with something truly special to treasure forever.
This is where the magic happens! My lifestyle newborn sessions are relaxed and cozy—no stiff posing or buckets of props here. Instead, we’ll focus on natural moments: the snuggles, the cuddles, those tiny hands and feet, and the love you share. There’s plenty of time to feed, soothe, or simply soak in the sweetness of these fleeting days.
