Lake Highlands Newborn Session | Family photos by Grace Hodo

There’s something really special about walking into a family’s home during those first few weeks with a new baby. Life is tender, emotions are raw, and the love in the air is almost tangible. It’s a vulnerable season and it’s such an honor to be invited into it.

In-home newborn sessions are designed to be slow and relaxed. We follow your baby’s lead, pause for feeding breaks, diaper changes, and all the snuggles in between. There’s no pressure for perfection just space to be present and soak it all in.

One of my favorite parts about photographing newborns in their own homes is how personal each session becomes. The colors, the light, the little details that make your home yours, it all tells a story. The soft pinks and blues in this family’s space made their gallery feel extra warm and timeless.

And when it comes to getting ready for your session, I’ve got you covered. After booking, all of my clients receive a detailed Portrait Style Guide, along with one-on-one wardrobe help from me. Whether you’re piecing together outfits for a crew or figuring out what looks best on you postpartum, I’m here to make the planning part feel simple and stress-free. Mom wore a beautiful Mi Golondrina dress that made her feel beautiful and photographed perfectly.

If you’re considering newborn photos at home, I can’t recommend it enough. Your baby’s first home holds so much meaning—and capturing your family there makes your images that much more special. Click here to see another beautiful in-home newborn session.
