This at home newborn photography session in Northern California was so sweet and cozy! Before I dive into the top 5 reasons why you need to book an at home newborn photography session, I need to talk about sweet little Reese, the star of the show, and her beautiful parents! Aaron and Carley are actually a past bride and groom of mine! You can check out their Sacramento wedding here. When they reached out for me to capture their newest bundle of joy Reese, I was beyond excited!

I love being able to connect with my clients and serve then through the many different stages in their lives! From the engagement, to the wedding day, maternity, and newborn photography! It’s all so full circle! I especially love that Carley and Aaron decided on an at home newborn photography session. There are so many advantages to doing a newborn session in home. Let’s dive into my top 5 reasons why!

1.) No Need to Leave The Comfort of Your Home For An At Home Newborn Photography Session

The first reason that you should have an at home newborn photography session is because it’s cozy and comfortable! I mean really, I don’t know about you, but this already seals the deal for me! When you first bring home baby, the last thing you want to do is venture out with them and expose them to the outside world right away. It really is a task, so let’s make it easy and stay home!

2.) The Best Moments Are In Their Environment

Secondly, the sweetest early moments are often those cozy and cuddly moments tucked away on the couch or in bed together. Or even spending time in babies nursery and rocking them. I love being able to capture the space that your precious little one spends most of their time in, and at home newborn photography sessions allow this! Especially if you spent so much time and effort into decorating the nursey. It’s the perfect opportunity to photograph all your hard work and show it off!

3.) Organic & Candid Moments Between Siblings

This may not apply if this is your first child, but another reason I love capturing newborns at home is the possibility of siblings. If you have other little ones running around, they are often most comfortable in their own home and environment and can forget the camera is even there, allowing for those candid and organic moments between siblings and parents!

4.) We Can Achieve Studio Quality Photos Even at Home!

Many have the misconception that you can’t have beautiful photos at home. This is absolutely NOT the case! You can still achieve studio like images in the comfort of your own home. We have tools and props to bring everything to you in order to achieve great photos! There’s no need to leave the house with your precious little one. Let us do all the work and capture these beautiful moments for you! And aside from that, your children will love to look back and these images in the future to see the familiarity of the cozy home they grew up in.

5.) Preserving The Fleeting Moments in Time, Forever

And last but certainly not least, and maybe the most obvious reason. These moments deserve to be documented forever! And of course, this doesn’t have to be an at home newborn photography session to do so, but I do think their are many more pros to doing newborn sessions at home! Trust me when I tell you that you will want these moments captured in time forever. As a mother myself, I know just how precious these times are and how fast little ones grow. I’ve never heard a single regret from any parent after scheduling their at home newborn photography session!
