Lifestyle Newborn Photos at Home | Tallahassee

Tallahassee lifestyle newborn photos at Home

There’s nothing as sweet a your new baby. We photographed baby Anderson’s lifestyle newborn photos at home in the space that his parents lovingly created for him.  I love nurseries and all things “house” and design. This room has one of the best features I’ve seen yet. One wall had all of baby Anderson’s extended family’s childhood photos printed in black and white. His parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents. It was just asking to be a feature in his own lifestyle newborn photos at home. You’ll see them in that gorgeous photo of his parents both holding him, as well as in the background of one more. Can you spot it?

I love capturing the little actions you do as a parent. The things that end up being so unique to this 4th trimester: burping your baby in just the right pose, the rock-and-sway motion that soothes them just right. It may seem like such a normal thing in your new life with your new baby, but one day you’ll wake up and those old tricks are no longer necessary. I’m always glad to capture them during your newborn photos at home.

What Is Lifestyle Newborn Photography?

What my portfolio doesn't tell you about me
When was the last time you looked at an old family photo and thought, 'I wish fewer people were in this'?

Probably never.

That is exactly why I always say yes when families ask whether they should include the grandparents, the cousins, the aunt and uncle who are only in town for a few days.

When you are not sure, say yes anyway. We will find a way to make it work.
A few things I want every family to know before a multigenerational session.

Start with the group shot - always. I photograph the full group first, before anything else, so every person in attendance (including the ones who drove the farthest) knows the most important image is already done. From there, we move through smaller groupings with a lighter energy.

Tell me about mobility before we choose a location. If a grandparent or family member has any physical considerations, I need to know before we land on a spot. There is always a way to create beautiful images that honor everyone present - I just need to know what we are working with so I can plan for it.

Mornings are almost always better for the little ones. Babies and toddlers are near-universally happier before the afternoon hits. When multiple generations are present, timing the session well makes a real difference in the energy of the whole group.

And if there are any family dynamics I should be aware of - specific pairings that need extra care, or groupings you would prefer I not suggest - please tell me. It keeps everything moving warmly, and it protects everyone from an awkward moment in front of the camera.

Planning is how multigenerational sessions go well. I am always happy to talk it through before your session date. Contact me through my website, link in bio.
