A lifestyle newborn session in the comfort of your home is a beautiful and relaxed way to capture the essence of your growing family. These sessions blend candid moments with intentional styling, creating timeless images that celebrate the newborn stage. Here’s a breakdown of what you can expect during a session where the photographer brings props:
What to Expect
- Comfort of Home:
Being in your own space, ensures that both you and your baby are comfortable and stress-free. The photographer will use natural light and the unique character of your home to set the scene. - Props to Enhance:
While lifestyle sessions lean toward a more natural look, props such baskets, wraps, and neutral backdrops can be incorporated. The photographer may also bring subtle accents like floral arrangements, wooden bowls, or hats to complement the setting. - Focus on Connection:
The emphasis for lifestyle newborn session is on genuine interactions. This includes snuggling on the couch, siblings holding the baby, parents gazing lovingly, or even simple everyday moments like feeding or rocking the baby. If posed photos are added on of baby, this is done at the end of the session. - Styling Guidance:
The photographer may suggest wardrobe choices for the family (neutral tones work well) to maintain a cohesive look in the photos. - Baby’s Needs First:
The session will be flexible, allowing for feeding, diaper changes, or soothing breaks to keep your little one content. - Blending Posed and Candid:
Props can be used to create a few posed shots of the baby while maintaining the organic vibe of lifestyle photography. Think of the baby swaddled and resting in a basket on your living room rug, or lying peacefully on a bed. Lighting and lot of other props can be brought to the session to create a separate set up for the posed photos.
Tips for Preparation
- Declutter Spaces: Clear away unnecessary items in the areas where you want photos taken.
- Warm the Room: Make sure your home is comfortably warm, especially if the baby will be photographed without many layers.
