A Lifestyle Newborn Session at Home

I think one of my favorite elements of this session, was not only meeting Michael and Jamie beforehand and getting to chat during our consultation about military life and babies and NM, but I also loved the simplistic sweetness of their session in the comfort of their lovely home, with each other and the handsome little guy pictured above, MJ!
In home newborn sessions are my absolute favorite types of newborn sessions. I used to have a studio, when we lived in Germany. But I think there is just something extra special about having a photographer come to your home to document this sacred time for your family, just loving and holding your new baby close.
Baby MJ is so incredibly loved, and it’s quite obvious in these images! All of the featured outfits and blankets were homemade for him from loved ones – these are the BEST kinds of props!!!! Heirloom, homemade items, items that remind you of your own childhood, etc. are the absolute best to feature in your photography session at home. I also love hearing about your heirloom items and their stories, and how it’s tied to your family!
Another highlight to the morning was MJ himself!!! What a total angel. He slept the ENTIRE time, but was sure to give us some smiles at the end when lying on dad’s uniform!!! It’s always hard to pick a favorite, but those pictures of him smiling are definitely high up on the list!
Jamie and Michael, thank you so much for trusting me to come to your home and document this special time for your family!! I absolutely loved getting to know you and pray we keep in touch, even throughout military moves and life! God bless you guys!!
