Hey there, new parents-to-be! Are you eagerly awaiting the arrival of your precious bundle of joy?

Well, get ready to capture those sweet, snuggly moments with a lifestyle newborn session right in the comfort of your own home!

At Summer Brader Photography, I'm all about capturing those authentic, heartfelt moments that make your family's story truly special.

So, let's dive into some tips for prepping for your in-home newborn session in style!


1. Embrace the Mess: First things first – don't stress about having a perfectly clean and tidy home. Lifestyle newborn sessions are all about capturing the real, raw moments of your family's everyday life.

So, embrace the mess, the chaos, and the beautiful imperfections that make your home uniquely yours.


2. Find the Light: Natural light is your best friend when it comes to photography, so try to schedule your session during the brightest part of the day. Open up those curtains, let the sunshine in, and watch as it bathes your home in a warm, golden glow.


3. Cozy Up Your Space: Create a cozy, inviting space for your newborn session by adding soft blankets, fluffy pillows, and cuddly toys to your baby's nursery or favorite snuggle spot. Think warm textures, neutral colors, and plenty of comfy cushions for lounging.


4. Dress Comfortably: When it comes to wardrobe choices, opt for comfortable, relaxed outfits that reflect your personal style and make you feel at ease. Think soft, flowing fabrics, cozy knits, and neutral tones that compliment your home's decor.


5. Follow Baby's Lead: Finally, remember to go with the flow and let your baby take the lead during the session. Whether they're snoozing peacefully, wide awake and curious, or snuggled up in your arms, each moment is precious and worth capturing.


And there you have it – your guide to prepping for a lifestyle newborn session that's as cozy and comforting as a warm hug! So kick back, relax, and get ready to make some beautiful memories with your little one right in the heart of your home.
