Benefits of Newborn Lifestyle Photos

Familiar Surroundings

Newborn lifestyle photos in the comfort of your home are always a great option. Great for when you don’t want to leave the home, have a toddler/s who do best in familiar surroundings and for when you want to have portraits taken in your favorite rooms.

You spend a lot of time getting ready for your new baby to come home, so why not show off that nursery and other special areas that you want documented. Great way to tell your family’s story and show your children how things looked when everything was still brand new!

Studio comes to you

I always bring everything that is needed, so don’t worry if your home has good light as I will bring lights with me in case it is needed. I also bring swaddles, blankets, onesies, baby wipes, diaper covers and all the other necessities.

Location #1 – parents’ bedroom

Most clients choose to do newborn lifestyle photos in the parents’ bedroom. It is a place that they spend a lot of time with their baby, so it is comfy. The bed is also a safe place for the baby and allows for flattering posing. Great for toddlers with their new sibling too.

Styling

When doing newborn lifestyle photos in your bedroom, think of your linens and how it will go with your outfit choices. I recommend white linens so that the eye goes straight to your family members without a lot of distractions. Pops of color can be nice, as shown here. The blue border of the bedding mimics the blue in the family’s wardrobe, baby’s bow and will look great with the colors in baby’s nursery.

Location #2 – Nursery

Notice how the colors of the bedroom pictures coordinate perfectly with the nursery. Any of these newborn lifestyle photos can be hung in either of these rooms without clashing. They can also be grouped tother in a gallery wall in other areas of the house and they would work seamlessly. All great things to think about when planning your portraits.

Simple newborn images

If you are drawn to studio style images for your baby, no worries. I bring what is needed for those sweet and simple newborn images that highlight your newborn. These images aren’t heavily posed, but rather more baby led posing with some simple adjustments to make sure everything looks good. Babies belong in arms of loved ones and in safe environments that make sense for newborns.

If you are looking for newborn lifestyle photos for your family as you welcome a new baby into the world, don’t hesitate to reach out. I am currently booking through the end of the year.

Book newborn lifestyle photos during second trimester

It is best to get on the calendar in your second trimester to ensure a spot is available for when your baby arrives. I pencil your session in on the calendar and leave plenty of open spots around your due date, so if baby arrives early or late, there is an opening for you. Inquire for information and to reserve your spot. info@yvonneniemannphotography.com  | 706.713.0676

Athens Newborn Photographer | One Week Old

As an Athens newborn photographer, I love being welcomed into families’ homes as they welcome their babies home. This family had me over when their little one was just a week old. Big sister was about a year and a half and was super sweet with her brother, although a bit protective too. Don’t blame her one bit!

Love the color palette the family chose for their newborn portrait session at their home in Watkinsville, GA. Their home is decorated in pale gray and is light and airy.  The pastel blue, white and khaki was perfection. Will coordinate well with their decor when they display their beloved portraits on their walls and throughout the house.

One great thing about doing a newborn family photo session at home, is that you get to showcase your favorite rooms where you spend time with your family. This sun room made for a wonderful location for some more candid images. This is where they spend a lot of time together and the light is just divine!

At Home Newborn Photographer | Athens, GA

What a joy to be an at home newborn photographer where I get to document families in those first moments with their infant. This little baby is two months old and her sister is just over a year. I photographed big sister for her own newborn photo session, so it was extra special to come back as their family grew to a family of four.

Tricks/Games that work every time with toddlers

To get this sweet image, I had to use one of my trusty tricks that always works with toddlers. You cannot even spot what we did to get this result, which is the goal as well. Don’t worry if you have a little one who doesn’t always want to sit still for portraits with their new sibling. I have plenty of tricks up my sleeve to get sweet images like this. After I leave, I bet you will even use some of the same tricks and games to get results like this on your own.

What to wear for newborn portraits

Love how mom dressed her girls for their at home newborn photography session. Baby sister is wearing the same swaddle that big sister wore just over a year ago. They used the same bassinet too. Big sister is wearing the sweetest pastel pink Feltman Brothers heirloom dress that has been passed down in the family. Traditional attire like this is always a win and good idea as your portraits will never look dated. They will truly stand the test of time.

When to book at home newborn photo session

If you are expecting and would like a session in the comfort of your home, contact me, the at home newborn photographer today. Would love to discuss all the options and details with you and to add you to the calendar. Newborn sessions are best booked in third or fourth trimester, before your newborn is born. This ensures that there is a spot available for you. I photograph babies of all ages, so if your baby has already arrived, no worries. I can still photograph your little one just as he/she is.

If you are expecting and wondering when to schedule your maternity photo session, I recommend 31-34 weeks of pregnancy or when your belly goes past your bust-line.

This is a great time as it is obvious that you are pregnant so you can show off your beautiful curves. It is also a time when you are still fairly comfortable and therefore are able to move more freely. Of course, this is just a guideline. Every woman is different in her pregnancy journey. If you aren`t showing much during these weeks, just hold off until your belly has popped out a bit more. This is why I mention waiting until your belly goes past your bust-line.

This is such a wonderful time in a woman`s life and worth documenting. Your finished photographic artwork will mean more to you as the years go by and your children will love looking at these portraits as they grow up. What an amazing gift to be able to see your mom carrying you with so much love, excitement and anticipation!
