Lifestyle Newborn Session || Laguna Niguel
When little Brynley’s mom, Kiley, reached out to me to ask about newborn photos, I shared with her all of the details about my typical, posed newborn sessions. She let me know she was envisioning more of a lifestyle session and that she’d actually found someone else who only does lifestyle sessions, and was willing to do the session for her. I told her no problem at all, and I’m sure she would love the photos. I wished her well, and that was that.
Until a few weeks later. I got another message that started with “this is awkward, but…”. Her other photographer had rescheduled on them two times already, and Kiley was stressed because babies change SOO fast! She really wanted to capture those memories of Brynley at her tiniest! I assured her that there was no reason at all to feel awkward! I never take it personally when someone chooses another photographer. Orange County has so much talent! I was able to squeeze her in within just a few days and we did the sweetest lifestyle session at their apartment in Laguna Niguel!
One of the most fun things about a lifestyle newborn session is the ability to incorporate all of the adorable details that parents put into creating the space for their new little one. Brynley had such a perfect little nursery, filled with things she will grow to love! I am personally partial to all of the Harry Potter references all over the place!
Another thing I love about capturing your little one in your own home environment is the ability to add in a few photos with your pets! This sweet girl has a pup that is going to look out for her as she grows up. And how awesome will it be to look back and see the photos of the two of them together during her first weeks of life!
I’m so happy i was able to come in and do this session for such a lovely family! They were so much fun, and the love and adoration for each other was just so obvious!
