In-home photography with a toddler session. Sydney newborn photographer.

Sydney Maternity & Newborn Photography

Last of the autumn days with you - newborn family photographer.

In-home family photography is perfect for newborns, especially for families who already have children. These newborn photography sessions are low fuss with the luxury of staying home and having ready access to snacks and comforts of home. Aside from that though they are also very special. In-home newborn photography sessions create a keepsake of what life was like for your child when they were born. A look into their first home, tiny moments and captures of everyday routines otherwise forgotten. These sessions create a keepsake of your now. They are a part of your family story.

I recently arrived to a family session and as I was chatting to my client she she said I just want the moments, the connection, the togetherness. She explained that her son had followed her around the house with her phone one day. She was busy with the newborn and didn’t think much of it. Later she discovered on her phone loads of photographs he’d taken of her doing everyday things - preparing lunch, showering, dressing the baby. The images were so powerful to her because she hadn’t really taken the time to think about the everyday things and that she didn’t have pictures of her and her children together.

This in-home newborn photography session reminded me of her words. With a toddler at home and winter rolling in this was the perfect way to create a keepsake of their now. I’ve tried very hard not to blog the entire session because I really love them all. We had a super relaxed morning and followed the lead of the little ones. After lots of cuddles and hanging out it was time for some baked beans on toast. It is truly very special to be invited into these special bubbles of never to be repeated days. Welcome baby Orla. x

I wanted to share some favourites from this beautiful in-home family photography session from earlier in the year. When Lucy contacted me she said we’ve been talking about family photographs and I was thinking it had to be a studio, but then I saw your work and I thought of course it doesn’t have to be! That’s very much music to my ears and I knew right away that I would love meeting this family. 

It was a relaxed and easy morning, albeit rainy and cold, and I was delighted to find when I arrived that hair still needed drying and brushing and socks needed to be found. I often recommend that people leave some of the getting ready for when I arrive, it means we can capture some more documentary style images, as well as the portraits, and it also takes the pressure off having to be camera ready by a certain time. I love when I arrive to find mum’s drying their hair or still getting ready, children half dressed or even some still asleep! When I know the family is relaxed and natural I know we will get some beautifully authentic shots which will capture true reflections of their family. True portraits of home.

We spent some time in the front room cuddling up on the couch and chatting, a little time in the kitchen while we grabbed a quick handful of crackers and then we spent some time playing records and dancing in the garden room. Beautiful, relaxed and natural captures of home. I’m so glad we were able to create this keepsake of home together.
