There's something so special about a lifestyle newborn session. My main goal during an in home newborn session is to capture what your daily life looks like with your precious new family member. I love to explore all of the areas where you hang out with your baby. The nursery, the master bedroom, and the living room are all great places to take photos. Sometimes, I find a random beautiful area of the house like a hallway or the guest bedroom. BUT at the same time, you should never be stressed about an in home newborn session. If your house is messy, don't worry! Those first precious weeks with your newborn are not the time to be deep cleaning your house. If you only have one tidy corner in the whole house, we can certainly work with that!

The other amazing thing about lifestyle newborn sessions is that you can schedule them whenever you want! They don't have to be done during the first two weeks like a posed newborn session. That gives you plenty of time to heal from the birth and bond with your baby before worrying about a photoshoot. Payton, for example, was 8 weeks old, and this session was so perfect!

Little miss Payton's newborn session this morning was so sweet and special. I had the pleasure of taking her mom, Hadley's, maternity photos. And I always love getting to take both the maternity photos and then the newborn photos!

Payton was so alert and loved the camera. Check out all of the photos of her staring directly at me with her big blue eyes!

I hope you enjoy some of my favorite photos from Payton's newborn session!
