This is the second time I have photographed this sweet little family – this time around as a family of FOUR! These McLean Virginia newborn photos were taken at their home. I love the warm, neutral tones and how cozy and natural the photos feel. The boys were so precious together throughout the two hour session. I was able to catpure some of the sweetest little yawns and facial expressions along the way! Near the end of the session, we brought in the pups to capture some of that “joyful chaos”. And really, isn’t the joyful chaos of family life the best part? 🙂 Scroll down to view more of this beautiful lifestyle newborn session!
I believe the best portrait sessions offer a healthy mix of both posed, editorial style photography and the naturally unfolding moments captured in a more documentary style. When there are toddlers in the house especially, I focus on prompts rather than poses. Each family I work with receives a session planning call as well as an email full of information to help prepare everyone in the family for the photo session. The goal is this: to have a stress free newborn and family photo session that you and your family enjoy and look back on with fondness.
