5 Reasons To Book An In Home Newborn Photoshoot

Bringing your precious newborn home is a moment filled with overwhelming love, joy, and tender moments. As you adjust to this beautiful new chapter in your life, capturing the pure essence of your baby and the warmth of your home becomes a treasured priority. That's where an in-home newborn photoshoot comes in. In this blog post, I'll explore five reasons why booking an in-home newborn shoot can beautifully preserve the magic of this fleeting stage, whilst also being practical and stress free in those hazy first few weeks.

1. Time To Relax

   You’ve just had a baby, maybe you’re still recovering, you’re adjusting to this new little being and their lack of schedule so let’s be real… Packing up and leaving the house might not be top of your list of wants right now!

   The best bit of in home newborn photography is you have none of that stress to worry about. You’re in the comfort of your own home with everything you need within arms reach.

2. Your Home

   Your home is also a part of your families story. How lovely to look back at these photos in years to come with all those home memories.

   The first time you brought your babies home.. the first time they crawled across that living room floor.. that painting in the nursery was so cute, where on earth did that go?

3. More Time

   Time… we all know how precious it is! Especially with a new arrival. So more time at home… to fit in that shower, or coming your hair or simply for a cup of tea, then the better.

   In home photo sessions mean you don’t have to rush about getting everyone ready to get to a specific place at a specific time. You can breathe and relax. Take a moment. Even if you’re not ready when I arrive it’s no problem. I’ll be scouting spots to shoot or building blocks with the little ones.

4. Fur Babies

   Because if we’re all honest here, they are also a part of the family. Anyone who says otherwise has clearly never had a pet!

   In home newborn shoots mean your fur babies also get a shot in the limelight and can be incorporated in those special forever photos. I’ve had plenty of dogs and cats make their debuts in newborn shoots at home and they always end up being some of my favourites.

5. Little Loves

   If this isn’t your first bub then being at home is a great place to have your newborn photographer come and get some photos… especially for the older little loves.

   If they’re a bit shy, then being at home will help them feel more at ease as they're in their safe space. Equally, if they lose interested… which most will at some points… then there’s all their favourite toys and snacks available to keep them occupied.

Let me leave you with this final thought - the early days of your baby's life are fleeting, but the sweetness of these moments can be preserved through the art of newborn photography. Choosing an in-home newborn shoot provides you with an intimate, comfortable, and meaningful way to capture the pure essence of your little one and the love that surrounds them. Embrace the magic of this time, and allow your photographer to create timeless images that will forever hold a special place in your heart. After all, these photographs will not only tell the story of your baby's arrival but also evoke the love, tenderness, and joy that filled your home during those remarkable early days.

Lots of love,
