When you are in the newborn bubble, life is a beautiful mess...
I remember coming home from the hospital, and feeling different. Life has changed for the better, but it's a confusing time. Your body feels different, you are a tired, sore and feel like you are at the beck and call of a tiny human. When will this end you wonder? Well as a mother of four little boys I can assure you that the fog will clear, you will not be as tired (you will be tired but in different more manageable ways) and you will feel normal again!!! What is interesting about this very significant stage in your life is that it is so hard to think back and recall those little details.
And that is where I come in.
My lifestyle newborn sessions capture real life. The little moments and those raw early days as you are adjusting to your new life as a family. I will work with you and what you are comfortable with. Whether it is simple family photos together, breast or bottle feeding, capturing your body and its new scars, skin on skin with parents or even getting into the bath with your baby. Whatever your choice, my aim is to capture your family as it really is, in this moment in time.
A lot of people worry that their house isn't picture perfect (blame social media for this and all of the curated imagery we see on the daily)..... trust me, it doesn't matter. When you look back in 20 years, you aren't going to care that your house was a little dark, your furniture didn't match or you looked a little tired...You are going to be so grateful that you captured a REAL snapshot of life as it was, when you welcomed your baby into the world.
