Posed Newborn Photography
Posed newborn photography involves carefully arranging the baby into various poses, often using props and accessories to create whimsical scenes. These sessions are typically conducted within the first two weeks of the baby’s life, when they are most likely to remain asleep for extended periods, allowing for easier manipulation into different poses. Photographers skilled in this style have a keen eye for detail, ensuring every tiny finger and curl is captured with precision.
One of the primary advantages of posed newborn photography is the ability to create stunning, artistic images that showcase the newborn’s delicate features in an aesthetically pleasing manner. From adorable sleeping poses to adorable props like wraps, headbands, and baskets, these images exude a sense of timeless beauty and innocence.
Lifestyle Newborn Photography
In contrast, lifestyle newborn photography focuses on capturing natural, candid moments between the baby and their family in a familiar environment, such as the family’s home or in my cozy studio. These sessions prioritize genuine interactions and emotions, highlighting the love, connection, and joy that define the early days of parenthood. Personally, these are definitely my favourite sessions although I offer both (or even a mix of both, everything is possible)!
Lifestyle newborn photography celebrates the intimacy and authenticity of everyday moments, from tender snuggles with parents to siblings eagerly welcoming their newest family member. Rather than staged poses, these images reflect the warmth and personality of the family dynamic, creating a narrative that tells the story of their life together.

Choosing the Right Style for You
When deciding between posed and lifestyle newborn photography, there is no one-size-fits-all answer. Each style offers its own unique benefits, and the decision ultimately comes down to personal preference and the type of memories you wish to capture.
For parents who appreciate the artistry and elegance of carefully composed portraits, posed newborn photography may be the ideal choice. These images serve as timeless works of art that beautifully encapsulate the innocence and wonder of infancy.
On the other hand, if you value authentic moments and want to capture the genuine love and connection shared within your family, lifestyle newborn photography may be more suitable. These images offer a candid glimpse into the everyday joys of parenthood, providing a heartfelt reminder of the love that binds your family together.
Whether you opt for posed or lifestyle newborn photography, the most important thing is to choose a style that resonates with you and accurately reflects the unique essence of your family. By investing in professional newborn photography, you can ensure that these precious moments are preserved for generations to come, allowing you to relive the joy and wonder of welcoming a new life into the world. And believe me, they grow so fast, you will cherish these memories forever!
