Newborn Baby Lifestyle sessions with Samantha Black

What is a Newborn Lifestyle Photography session?

These sessions are ideal for families who would like to photograph their newborn within the first few weeks (ideally within 8 weeks) in a more relaxed way. With traditional newborn sessions, the focus is mostly on baby with a large degree of posing and some use of props.  With a lifestyle session we will can still do some posing but not as much and really we try to keep the theme as natural as possible. We minimise the use of props and stick to wrap, blankets and simple fabrics and textures.  We can use items in your home to bring a personal feel to the session. For example baby's blanket, a cot or crib, a changing table can all give your session a slightly different look and feel. There is a whole spectrum within Newborn Lifestyle Photography, and I can work anywhere within that spectrum, we can go super natural or we can incorporate a some posing.

How will I know what style of photography suits my family?

Together we will discuss well before your session and I will work out from you by asking you lots of questions, what I think you like and what would suit you so that on the day we all know what we are doing. It's really that simple.

What should we wear?

In terms of Mum and Dad, I look for simplicity and comfort in their clothing and appearance, and we shoot is a more relaxed manner whilst still incorporation some degree of posing for Mum and Dad, it still has a really natural look and feel.

White, neutral and earthy tones work really well for clothing and bedding too.

What should baby wear?

Not much at all.  I will work mostly in a nappy, blankets, wraps and bodysuits/sleepsuits.

It's also good to have maybe one or two sleepsuits and short sleeved bodysuits/vests that you like too.

Also pick out baby blankets you love, I'll want to see all of these when I arrive.

Anything else?

Yes, just relax as best as you can on the day.

I will do my best to photograph you all in the best way I can.  I cannot tell you how important it is to try  to be 'in' these images with your baby, no matter how you feel.  This is your chance to get images of you and your baby and to get them the way you like them.

One day your child will look back and totally cherish these images, more than you know.  They will be the ones that they will always want to see and have. They will be the images that are their forever images

 So let's focus on making you comfortable and getting it right. It's a very special time for you all, let's make it an enjoyable one too!
