Newborn Photography
Why Newborn Photography?
Newborn babies grow and change SO FAST! Add in the sleepless nights that often come with a newborn, and the memory of your baby’s newborn features can disappear in a sleep deprived haze. That’s where we come in! As your photographer, our job isn’t just to take pictures. Rather it is to capture a moment, an emotion, a feeling, a look, a memory, and freeze it for all of time.
Now we get it. Professional photos can come with a big price tag. Our hope as your photographer is that you will not just see the price tag, but see this as an investment in keeping memories alive; an investment in capturing your legacy.
In-Home Lifestyle Newborn Photography
You’ve designed, painted and prepped your baby’s nursery, you’ve endured the 9 long months of pregnancy and experienced the pain and thrill of labor and delivery, and now you’ve brought your sweet baby home. Your family has grown as has your heart and the next several weeks, months, and years will be all about getting to know this little person you and your husband created in love.
Lifestyle newborn photography is not just about capturing all the tiny details of your new baby, but also the love that you share as a family. For a lifestyle newborn session, I come to you, and capture your growing family in the comfort of your own home The props and poses we use during the session are natural and authentic. We typically take some photos of baby alone, lying on the bed, blanket or in the crib, as well as with mom, dad and any siblings. Baby can be swaddled or in a simple outfit and baby can be asleep or awake.

As an alternative to doing the session in your home, we offer lifestyle newborn session in studio. The studio has beautiful natural light and is set up to be warm and inviting with similar furniture and decor to a home so that it still has the lifestyle feel.
The studio session takes the stress out of feeling like you have to prep your house to be ready for photos. Come to the studio and sit back, relax and get ready to dote on your beautiful baby. Please note that you are interested in the studio option on your inquiry form. You can view some examples of full studio session here.

Outdoor Newborn Photography
From about May-September in Boise, the weather is typically warm enough that doing a newborn photography session outdoors at the location of your choice is an option. A newborn session outside is pretty similar to our other newborn session in regards to posing and the variety of photos that you get, but instead of those photos taking place in your home, they take place in a beautiful outdoor location.

from bump to baby
Capturing newborn and maternity photos is one of my biggest passions because it is the stage of life that I (Natalie) am currently in! I have 3 kids, 5 and under! I’ve witnessed firsthand how fast babies grow and change and know personally how much of a treasure having photographs of their littles details can be.
So whether you are pregnant, or you just had a baby, I would love to help you capture these precious memories! Don’t hesitate to reach out!
Words from happy clients
“Natalie did our maternity and newborn photos and both experiences were amazing. Our maternity pictures were up at Bogus Basin, she and her husband were so accommodating and helpful so we could include our fur babies. On top of that she came to our home for our newborn photos, which was not only helpful and less stressful for us as first time parents, but the warm pictures in our own home are priceless. These are hands down the best photos we have had, (even my husband who doesn’t enjoy having pictures taken loves them) and we look forward to using her in the future for family and milestone pictures. Thank you Natalie!

“Natalie is amazing! She is so quick to respond and flexible with scheduling. She took our maternity and newborn photos and we love how they came out! I absolutely love the maternity photos and she gave wonderful ideas for location/outfits/poses/etc. She is so creative and goes above and beyond to capture the perfect shot! I loved that the newborn session took place at our house. It made it less stressful (especially for first time parents!) and so much more special! I also love that she shares a photo gallery with you containing all of your images that you can access whenever and have the option to order prints. We loved working with Natalie and will definitely work with her again!”
“My husband and I wanted to document our first pregnancy with maternity photos, and I am so happy to have found Natalie! She worked well around our schedule, communicated with me in a timely way, and provided a list of items for us to bring the day of so we were prepared to take the best photos. She sent us sneak peak pictures the same day! And the full set of photos was sent super quickly as well. We are absolutely in love with her work, and would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer!”
“Natalie did a fantastic job with our newborn photos. We had so many to choose from and they were edited well, with the natural look we were hoping for. She was so fun to work with during the shoot and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera.”
