Zoe - Montgomery, Alabama Newborn Photo Session

I’ve had a few newborn photography inquiries lately, so I thought it was about time I blog this sweet session with the adorable baby Zoe to give prospective clients an idea of how a newborn session typically goes when you invite me to document your precious new arrival.

I had the pleasure of meeting Zoe just a couple days after she was born when I went to her home in Montgomery, Alabama for our photo session. My approach to newborn photography is more on the organic side. By that I mean, you probably won’t see a lot of baby-specific props and backdrops and costumes (though I’m happy to use ‘em if you’ve got ‘em!), and it’s common for sessions to take place in your home.

I’m more interested in documenting the reality of your life and emotions and relationships than I am the perfect tiny head bow. Not to put down that style at all, though. If that speaks to you, go for it! I just like for people to know what to expect when they call on me for their photography needs. :) If my style speaks to you, let’s talk! Newborn sessions are typically scheduled with in the first two weeks of giving birth, so making plans ahead of time is essential. Feel free to send me a message here.

And now, on to the cuteness!
