What is outdoor newborn photography?
Newborn photography sessions are traditionally held indoors either at home or in a studio. However in these times we are living, some parents prefer to keep all activities outdoors, especially when it comes their precious newborns. This is where outdoor newborn photography comes in, especially outdoor lifestyle newborn photography. Outdoor lifestyle newborn photography is a laid back way to document your newborn, outside, in a natural and authentic way.
What is lifestyle newborn photography?
With lifestyle newborn photography, the baby is photographed in a baby led way, with their family. Baby led means the baby is photographed in natural poses that they move into unaided. There is more flexibility with timing for a lifestyle newborn session because the baby doesn’t have to be asleep during the session. They also don’t have to be as flexible to get them into poses, which are more easily done when a baby is younger. This means a session can be done when the baby is three days or three months old. Some families also prefer lifestyle sessions, because they feel more meaningful to the family. They tell the family’s unique story because the images that are documented are ones with the family doing things they normally do together. Outdoor lifestyle newborn photography takes this experience and brings it outside either in a family’s backyard or in an outdoor setting.
Mommy and me outdoor lifestyle newborn session
This Maryland mommy and me newborn session was so much fun. I spent a relaxed afternoon with this mama and her baby girl strolling around this gorgeous outdoor location. We took in the beauty of nature while also chatting about what it’s like to be a new mom. But the most important part is we documented those special quiet moments between a mom and her new baby. We also had a fun time designing custom artwork including a gallery of canvases and framed prints.
