The type of newborn photo session you choose should be based on your family and your goals.

Authentic newborn photos can be done at home or in studio.

Choices, choices!

Choosing what type of newborn photo session is right for you and your family isn’t easy. Depending on what your personal style is, and what your family is like, we can find the perfect fit.

There are advantages to either having the session in your home or in a studio.

More control in studio sessions

One advantage to having your newborn photo session in a studio is control.

First of all, the lighting will be controlled. That means it will always be consistent, reliable, and flattering. That saves time and energy at the beginning of the session. It avoids searching your home for the best place to shoot. Also, it ensures that no matter what the weather is like, the photos will always be light and bright.

You’ll also have much more control over the backgrounds used in the photo session. This will give your newborn photos a much more cohesive and polished look.

At Home Sessions for a Natural Look

However, if you’re looking for a more personal way to remember the first special days with your little person — have your newborn photo session in the comfort of your home.

An at home newborn photo session especially a good choice for families with older siblings. It’s so rewarding to have the entire family involved in the photo session. But, many toddlers may not be up to hanging out in a photo studio for a couple of hours.

Special memories are made when your new special person is photographed in their first home. Imagine them looking back on these photos in the years to come.

Was this in the studio, or done at home? Sometimes it’s hard to tell.

When you start to compare newborn photo session choices, it ultimately comes down to what you feel most comfortable with.
