The newborn photography window will change depending on who you ask. For the type of work I do, the first 6 weeks of life, to me, are considered newborn.  Here is what to expect during the three phases of this time period:

Lifestyle photography leans more towards unposed, real reflections of your everyday life, captured in an artful way.  Our goal is to shine light and feeling on the life you are living now, moving away from posed and prompted smiles.

Looking for a newborn photographer in Media, Pennsylvania, but not exactly sure if lifestyle photography is what you want? Follow me on Instagram or spend some coffee time perusing the blog to feel is this approach is for your and your growing family.

Here are a few tips that have saved me when in bright sun before I take the picture and after I take the picture.  You have a few opportunities to get it right before you bail and turn the entire image into black and white.  I think pool side and beach vacations are the best time to practice.

We want to capture you, in your life, with your people, among your travel trinkets and thoughtful fixtures. Though there is beauty in the grand and magnificent, there is also beauty in the simple and real. You are magical in your own right, doing the things that are soooo important when it comes to raising children and building a family.

I welcome all pieces of indoor newborn photography in hopes to give you true-to-life snippets of how this time really was, how this time really felt. I often hear client apprehensions in booking sessions with young children, sharing statements like “my kids would never sit for that”

We decided on an intimate, slow paced experience scheduled around nap times and happy times. Though this was a larger farm style home a few miles north of Baltimore, we used only two of the rooms in the house- I wanted to focus on connection and let the Little Miss settle in and feel comfortable. Maybe another session would showcase the landscape of their life, but for this particular vision, I found it distracting.
