What type of lifestyle newborn session should you choose?
A lifestyle newborn session in Birmingham can take place in various locations. I love that outdoor, newborn sessions provide you with something a little different than most people would choose. Lifestyle newborn session in your home are a great way to preserve memories of the place baby first lived. My in-home studio is a great option for lovers of all white photography or feel you don’t have appropriate lighting in your home.
This was the third time I have had the pleasure of photographing the Dean family. Before I photographed their newborn session I met them for a family photography session and Fresh 48 photography session. Fresh 48 photography sessions take place in the hospital or place of birth within the first 48 hours so you have captured memories of all of the fresh, newborn goodness.
When should you schedule your lifestyle newborn session?
The Deans chose to photography baby around 2 weeks old for their lifestyle newborn session in Birmingham. Typically 2 week old’s sleep most of their session.
Lifestyle newborn sessions can take place at any time. I suggest aiming for the 2 week mark for moms that didn’t need a cesarean section. At 2 weeks babies are often getting on a schedule and mom has had time to heal. For moms that have had cesarean sections I suggest waiting until baby is 3 weeks or older.
Big sister didn’t need any convincing to snuggle with her new sister. Little sister was very tolerant of all the kisses and hugs showered upon her.
Along with family photos and photos of baby individually I always spend time photographing mom and dad with baby individually and together during lifestyle newborn sessions in Birmingham. Sessions can take place in any room in your home. Two of the most common places to photograph are in the parents bedroom and in the nursery.
