Lifestyle sessions are just beautiful. They depict the newborn in their natural environment and I love being able to showcase this.

For example it not being professional decorated, it isn’t exactly like how they want it […]

All of these tips are perfect to help get a sleepy baby! (I cringe when parents come to my studio with their cans of energy drinks!) I love lifestyle newborn sessions because they show the first home the baby was brought home to. And mom and dad can relax and not try to get everyone out of the house on time! Beautiful image to illustrate this too!

I didn’t realize how much work went into prepping for a lifestyle newborn session, but that is the difference between a good session and a fantastic session. You can tell the photos where when the time and effort to put away things that are distracting or clutter up the home.

SO much great information for portrait sessions! I totally agree about white shirts, you want people looking at you, not your shirt! Complementing colors are fantastic for sessions instead of everyone looking exactly the same. My favorite bit of advice is to have your make up professionally done!! It’s amazing the difference it makes in your photos.
