I love doing newborn sessions in my natural light studio. It's actually a sunroom that I converted into a studio, so it still has that bright, natural look, but is staged with a white couch, white mid-century modern chair, white-washed wood floors, a white brick wall and 3 walls of windows with white curtains. Can you tell I love white? (I suppose the name White Elm Photography is a hint.) Anyway.... sweet baby Jocelyn was a dream! She slept when she was supposed to, showed us her bright beautiful eyes at all the right moments. And of course, we had to add a little festive tree for this beautiful Christmas baby!
Ellie is pretty lucky to have these two for parents. They are some of the kindest, sweetest, most loving people I know! I loved this lifestyle newborn session. I got to capture all the tender moments like snuggling, kissing, and nuzzling that perfect baby girl. She had the softest hair, brightest eyes, and most calm, peaceful presence.
This house was full of natural window light! Like the kind that made me giddy. Someday when I build my dream home, I hope it has light like this! Baby McKayla was a dream. And also more fashionable than me.
Most lifestyle newborn sessions take place in my clients' homes, or in the White Elm natural light studio, however when the weather is perfect, it's also a fun option to do a family newborn session at the park! I can already tell those two little brothers are going to be the best of friends.
This sweet family drove to Columbus, Ohio for our lifestyle newborn photography session, coming all the way from Michigan! I can't imagine riding in a car for so long after just having a baby (actually I can imagine it... and it's painful to think about!) But this mama was a champ. And that darling baby Emeline was a dream. I could not get over her red hair and chubby cheeks. She. was. perfect.
Lifestyle home newborn photography sessions like this always make me wish I would have had my baby's nursery ready when they came home from the hospital! How gorgeous is this room for sweet baby Emelia?! She is one lucky little girl.
