I love photographing families – and photographing growing families is definitely really high up on my Favorites List. I love capturing the chaos and joy that’s those first few months with a new baby at home.

Whenever my newborn clients ask me what’s the best time for their newborn session I always recommend to do it about 6-8 weeks after the baby is born. This gives Mom some time to recover and the whole family to settle into a life with a newborn. And the baby is a bit more aware at that point, which means that we can capture wonderful eye contract!

I love at home newborn sessions but at home newborn sessions when there are older siblings involved at my favorites! I always structure these sessions like a family session (because that’s what it is) with a newborn focus:)

This family session had a it all – a grand house tour given by the big brother, some story time, some tickle time, backyard adventures and quiet time with the new baby girl.
