Lifestyle newborn sessions are my favorite, because they capture candid photos that highlight your family as they are, without any forced poses or cheesy set-ups. I use natural light, simple white blankets and backdrops, and snuggly natural connections to get the following shots: lots of newborn portraits, siblings together, baby with mom, baby with dad, baby with parents, and look-at-the-camera classic and candid family photography.

I recommend scheduling newborn photos within the first two weeks of baby’s life, if you want them teeny tiny and captured in their first days. But there are new rules! Since I’m not doing super posed photography, they don’t need to be very sleep or malleable as they are in the first week of life. If you want to schedule a lifestyle newborn session in the first month, or second month, that’s fine too.

In-home newborn photography is my most common photo session, but I do have a photography studio in downtown Seattle, which is big, bright, and cozy and a wonderful place for newborn photos. Use my online scheduler to book, or purchase a baby package if you’d like maternity, newborn, and baby milestone photo shoots in the first year. You can also email me with questions. I’d love to be your newborn photographer!
