Newborn Photography is such a beautiful way to celebrate the birth of your new baby. As you embark on the search for the “perfect” photographer for you and your family, you may have some questions.
There are thousands of Newborn Photographers and all of them have their own specialities. It can feel impossible to choose.
One of the main things you want to ask yourself is this…
Do I want to have my babies photos taken in my home or at a studio?
This is one of the biggest questions you should ask yourself and it will help you to sift through your options.
Here are some reasons I believe In Home Newborn Photography is a better option.
In Home Newborn Photography is safer for your new baby.
Why? Because you aren’t taking your newborn, who has a delicate immune system, into the public in their first few weeks of life. Photography studios are a wonderful option in the right circumstance, that is for sure, however, are they washing each and every blanket they use before each new teeny client? Are they photographing other ages of children, like toddlers and school age kiddos who bring lots of viruses with them wherever they go?
I used to be a NICU nurse so safety is my number one concern. Keeping babies delicate immune system protected is at the top of my safety list and keeping your baby at home ensures that exposure is minimal in the first few weeks of life.
In Home Newborn Photography is more comfortable for the entire family, especially when there are older siblings to consider.
Having a new baby in the house changes everything. Going from zero to one child, two to three, whatever the change has its challenges. Having your newborn babies photos taken in your home eliminates the one, and sometimes seemingly impossible step, of packing everyone up and leaving the house. Your photographer comes to your home allowing you to enjoy more time together as a family. Your new baby is going to be more comfortable where the sounds and smells are familiar, allowing your photographer to capture more photos of your baby at ease.
In Home Newborn Photos capture your families true essence.
While I do “pose” new babies in the home, my main focus is on the family connection and love. Being in your home space allows me to observe this unique stage in your life and incorporate personal elements of your home and routine into your photos. In home photography ensures that you remember this fleeting moment in time as it was, imperfectly perfect.
In summary, in home newborn photography is safer, more comfortable, and more authentic. It is a beautiful way to capture this moment in your life that I assure you , goes all too quickly.
