Beautiful baby Scout, newborn photos at home

Sweet little, brand new baby Scout was a joy during her newborn photos at home. She was everything a brand new baby is… sleepy and hungry. She wasn’t a fan of being swaddled and slept so sweetly when we laid her on her tummy for pictures. She’s welcomed to the world by her loving and curious big sister, calming mama, and attentive daddy. There’s a lot of love for this little one.

Oh the shenanigans we implored to get these images. They involved an ipad hovering over my camera.

Why newborn sessions at home?

I find that this is where babies are most comfortable and most easily calmed. In the room you’ve created for them, with the family that loves them. The smells are familiar, when all else is new. Also, I just love doing these sessions at home because I love the intimacy they provide. I even wrote a whole post about lifestyle newborn photography. There’s just nothing sweeter. Inquire about your own newborn session. I’d love to tell you all about them.

What Is Lifestyle Newborn Photography?

A few things I am loving lately that are helping me move through the juggling act with a little more sanity:

A single charging base on my nightstand. One cord. One base. Phone, Apple Watch, AirPods... all done. I waited way too long to make that little switch.

And honestly? The Chattanooga trip. Getting out of the daily routine and being intentional about time with my husband reminded me that those moments do not happen on their own. You have to actually put them on the calendar.

What is helping you feel more grounded lately? A mindset shift, a habit, a snack you are unreasonably committed to? Hit reply or drop it in the comments - I am always adding to my list.

I have a growing list of places around Tallahassee I want to photograph.

Goodwood. The Grove Museum (seriously, how is it that tucked away on North Monroe?). The canopy roads. Wakulla Springs. Florahome-style spots that make you feel like you stumbled onto something.

I want to grow a collection of prints from this area, and I am genuinely curious what spots matter most to you.

What are your favorite places around Tallahassee and the surrounding communities? Drop them below. I want to hear what this place means to the people who live here.
