5 Reasons Why an At-Home Newborn Photoshoot is the Perfect Choice | London newborn photographer
As a newborn photographer based in South London, specialising in capturing those precious early moments, I've had the pleasure of witnessing the magic of at-home newborn photoshoots time and time again. See a behind the scenes video from one of the sessions:
There is nothing quite like the home you bring your baby to. It's where we spend the most time in those precious early days after birth. It's where you share laughter, shed tears, endure late-night feeds, revel in skin-to-skin bonding while enjoying cosy Netflix evenings. It's where you bravely tackle your first 'poonami' and joyfully witness those unforgettable first smiles, the heartwarming meetings with grandparents, and countless other precious moments.
Imagine the magic of having images of you and your loved ones captured in a place brimming with memories that, once preserved, you can go back to over and over again.
Let's dive into the top five benefits of opting for a newborn session in your London home!
1. Convenience at Your Doorstep
One of the biggest perks of choosing an at-home newborn photoshoot is how convenient it isi. As a busy new parent, the last thing you need is the added stress of packing up your little one and driving to a studio. And remember all the things the baby might need. Or your toddler. All.The.Things.
By bringing the session to your home, I ensure that you and your baby are comfortable and relaxed throughout the process. No need to worry about traffic jams or forgetting essential items - everything you need is right at your fingertips.
2. Sentimental Settings for Timeless Memories
There's something truly special about capturing your baby's first moments in the comfort of your own home. From your bed where your little one enjoys skin to skin to the living room where you spend countless hours cuddling, every corner of your home is infused with love and memories.
By choosing an at-home session, we can incorporate these meaningful spaces into your photos, creating timeless memories that would otherwise be soon forgotten.
3. Comfortable Environment for Dads and Siblings
At-home newborn photoshoots provide a comfortable environment for dads and siblings, especially toddlers who may need a bit of time to warm up to the camera. Being in the familiar surroundings of their own home, they're more likely to relax and be themselves. Toddlers can show off their favourite toys or books, adding a personal touch to the photoshoot.
This relaxed atmosphere allows for genuine moments to unfold naturally, resulting in authentic and heartwarming images that truly capture the essence of your family dynamic.
4. Grandparents and Pets Welcome
Speaking of including the whole family, at-home newborn photoshoots make it easy to incorporate grandparents and even beloved pets into the mix. After all, they're an essential part of your family's journey, and their presence adds an extra layer of warmth and love to your photos.
Whether it's capturing tender moments between grandma and baby or playful interactions with the family pet, these images will be treasured for generations to come.
5. Minimal Preparation, Maximum Relaxation
Let's face it - as a new parent, the last thing you need is another item on your to-do list. That's why I strive to make the preparation process for your at-home newborn photoshoot as stress-free as possible. Simply declutter the rooms we'll be shooting in, and I'll take care of the rest.
I will also provide you with a Client Guide with tips on how to prepare (hint: have snacks ready for older siblings!). On the day of the session, I'll be there to guide you every step of the way, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience for everyone involved.
Time flies when you're welcoming a new addition to the family, and before you know it, those tiny newborn days will be a distant memory. But fear not - an at-home newborn photoshoot can be scheduled at any time within the first six weeks after birth, whenever you and your baby are ready. So why wait? Let's capture these precious moments together and create memories that will last a lifetime.
If you book your session during pregnancy, we will pencil in your due date as a tentative date and confirm the exact date once the baby is born and you feel ready.
If you're ready to schedule your at-home newborn photoshoot or have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out. I can't wait to meet your little bundle of joy and capture these fleeting moments for you to treasure forever.
