I love when I get to witness couples become parents. It’s one of the most mystifying, exciting, terrifying and magnificent life transitions we can experience! I captured their maternity sessions a month or so before getting to meet their sweet baby Henry for this newborn session. This session was shot entirely in my home studio (and living room) and back yard. I love being able to host families here for sessions when I can! Otherwise in-home sessions where you live are always possible and really great. Most people think their house isn’t beautiful, styled, clean or modern enough for a successful shoot. It couldn’t be further from the truth! In-home photos are some of the most personal and relaxed. No complicated parking or trekking around a park, GPS freakouts, nap timing, etc. Home is a great place for your family photo session, especially in Seattle where our weather is so unpredictable!
I loved Emily’s styling for this session. Her breezy Doen dress was so beautiful and soft, and sweet Henry’s little outfits were cozy and simple. The less fuss the better — there are no baskets and props here!
