This week we are sharing all about when to book your lifestyle newborn session. We love these sessions so much, and being invited into your home is such an honor. If you’re wondering how to prepare for these sessions, we will be sharing a post soon!

When To Book Your Lifestyle Newborn Session | NC Motherhood Photographer

We typically recommend scheduling your lifestyle newborn session in your second trimester. Of course, we understand wanting to wait, but the sooner you’re on our schedule, the sooner we can get planning and allow for wiggle room if something comes up and we need to reschedule.

Plus, during the second trimester, you’ll likely feel more like yourself again, and morning sickness usually eases up a little. The third trimester can fly by, so we love helping you take this item off your plate. Plus, baby may come earlier than expected, and knowing you have this important date taken care of means you won’t miss getting on your photographer’s calendar.

Baby Hudson’s Lifestyle Newborn Session

This precious family had just recently moved to the area, and I loved getting to meet them. Baby Hudson was the sweetest and loved being snuggled. I can’t believe he’s already a year old and still just as adorable with dark brown curly hair.

Mom and Dad opted to have their session in their home, which was the perfect backdrop to celebrate this new season. Mom wore a beautiful, cozy white gauze dress from the studio wardrobe, and we kept Hudson cozy in a long-sleeved onesie that was so cute! Dad opted for a cream henley.

We also included their first love, their puppy. He was the best-behaved boy and loved checking in on his new baby. I loved every moment of this session and getting to know this crew!
