In Home Newborn Session- Bountiful Newborn Photographer

If 2020 has brought us anything, it’s more sweet newborn sessions! I have been so busy with so many in home newborn sessions. It is so special to see a baby just days-weeks old and capturing new parents or siblings with their new addition. Typically you want to do your newborn pictures during week 1-4 after your baby has arrived, however rest assured that if that doesn’t work that you can still get great pictures. This sweet little baby was probably 6weeks-2 months old at this session. She was awake and mostly happy during our session. And the sweet thing with her being a little older was we had some smiles!

When planning your newborn session, think of if you want to clean up your house for them or if you would rather travel a bit and pay a little extra for a studio. Both come with their pros and cons! If you want to do them in your home you can just pick 1-3 rooms and then move the mess out of view. You don’t need to be cleaning all night before a session when you’re recovering from labor and have a newborn keeping you up. Just pick a few areas in the house with natural light and the most windows. If this stresses you out too much, I have done a ton of sessions at White Space Studios in Bountiful with great natural light and plenty of seating options.

This family’s home was lovely. There was tons of natural light upstairs in the master bedroom. Their neutral tones throughout their home and in their outfits were perfect to keep the focus on them and not distracted by anything else. Also for new mom’s that are in their new postpartum bodies, make sure to wear something comfortable and flattering. You can do an oversized sweater like Ana did here or a simple dress.
