Lifestyle Family Sessions
In the whirlwind of life, it's important to pause and cherish the moments that matter most. And what could be more precious than welcoming a new baby into a loving family? A lifestyle family session is a unique time that allows you to capture the magic of these early days, showcasing the unique bond between parents, siblings, and even four-legged family members. In this blog post, we'll dive into the heartwarming story of a growing families journey through 4 different photo sessions, all set in the cozy embrace of their home!
At our very first session with the Feehan Family - The day began with an air of excitement as we entered the warm and inviting home that was a buzz with the excitement of their first son that was due in just a few weeks.
At our second session the newest addition to the Feehan family - Huck - a precious bundle of joy, took center stage. Cradled in the loving arms of his parents, the baby radiated pure innocence and curiosity. From capturing the tender gazes exchanged between parents and their newborn to showcasing those tiny fingers and toes, we aimed to freeze these early moments in time, allowing the family to relive them for years to come.
Soft sunlight poured through the windows, casting a gentle glow on the tastefully decorated nursery, complete with a crib adorned with delicate mobiles and a cozy rocking chair for mom and baby bonding sessions. Meanwhile, the pup's tails were wagging as they took a big interest in discovering the newest family member. Their perky ears added an extra layer of joy to the atmosphere!
Soon enough their family was growing again! This was our third session; Huck was becoming a big brother and although he may not have fully understood the idea of gaining a sibling, he felt the excitement and anticipation that filled the home as they prepared for another baby to join the party. This lifestyle maternity session was so special, because it allowed the parents to capture and hold onto those last moments of holding their first born before they were no longer the baby of the family.
At our fourth session, Ginny was welcomed into the world! Huck was now a big brother and an active toddler, filled with boundless energy and a contagious zest for life! He was the perfect companion for the baby's journey. We documented the heartwarming interactions between siblings, capturing shared secrets, gentle kisses, and the joyful chaos that comes with toddlerhood. Their connection formed the foundation for a lifelong bond that would grow stronger with each passing day.
A lifestyle family session in the comfort of one's home offers a magical opportunity to capture the genuine moments that define a family's love. From the delicate interactions between parents and newborns to the joyful chaos of toddlers and the undeniable charm of family pets, every member contributes to a beautiful narrative. Through my lens, these moments are forever immortalized, allowing families to relive and cherish the little moments as they grow and evolve. So, why not take a moment to celebrate the unique beauty of your own family through a lifestyle session? You won't regret it!
Preparing for your own session
Natural light - as much open window light as possible.
Clear an area - your bedroom, an open wall by window light or the nursery. Simplify the surrounding area by removing clutter so we have a blank slate to work with for photos.
What to wear - neutral colors work for every family member! Solid colors, comfortable clothes, and bare feet are best to give those cozy at-home vibes. A plain onesie and or a wrap for baby is best!
