Welcome Home Baby Girl
This newborn photo shoot was a dream. I was fortunate enough to meet this couple when I did their pregnancy photos. They are great to work with and I love getting to watch the transition into parenthood. Check out the highlights from their Maternity Photo Shoot in Atlanta.
A lot of people ask, what should we wear for out newborn photography session? I suggest keeping outfits for a newborn photo shoot simple.
Notice how this sweet baby girl is wearing a cute neutral newborn outfit with a muted floral design. It looks nice with the pattern, but is not overpowering to allow to focus on the details of her precious face. I like an outfit that can show off the toes and fingers as well instead of having them covered up.
This was the guest room in their house, but it got better natural light than the primary bedroom. However, I used the more neutral bedspread from their regular bed on it to make it feel more like their room and for a better aesthetic. It’s these little changes that can make a big difference in the end product. This is why I check out the various rooms and areas in your home when I arrive so that we can create the best spaces for photos. It only takes a minute and a few adjustments, so don’t worry about doing anything ahead of time. I will help tidy or move things around if needed, there is no time for that in your postpartum life!
That is the beauty of the lifestyle newborn photo session, the baby can be awake or asleep and it works. I have the parents holding and snuggling their newborn the majority of the photo session so that the baby is happy, which means everyone is happy.
This sweet baby girl slept throughout the majority of the photo session. She was especially cozy once we swaddled her in the cute Georgia peach blanket! What a peach.
Newborn Photography is all about capturing all the important little details. These are the memories you want to look back on.
