What if you don’t want to be in your child’s photos?

Here’s Why You Should Consider It

When I had my first baby I scheduled his photos at a newborn studio. I wasn’t feeling like my best self having had just given birth. 

The images I got back, I analyzed and criticized. I thought ‘Look at my arms, they were so big. Ug’

Today that is not what I see 16 years later. 

I see myself as a new mom and my first baby. I regret none of it. 

I’ve never had any parent regret being in their newborn photo session.

Here are my reasons why you need to be included your baby’s photos:

1. Your Unique Bond

There’s nothing quite like the connection between you and your newborn. By being in the photos, you’re not just capturing your baby’s first moments—you’re capturing the love and bond that only you share.

2. Your Family’s Story

These photos are the start of your family’s story, a beautiful beginning that you’ll want to look back on and share with your child as they grow. It’s a legacy you’re building, one moment at a time.

3. Comfort

Your baby feels safest in your arms, and that comfort shines through in the photos. When you’re in the frame, it creates a calm, relaxed vibe, resulting in images that are as natural as they are beautiful.

4. Celebration

Becoming a parent is life-changing, and these photos are a celebration of that incredible journey. By being part of the session, you’re capturing the joy, pride, and love that comes with welcoming your baby into the world.

5. Uniquely Yours

Every family is unique, and when you’re included in the portraits, it adds a personal touch that’s unmistakably yours. These images will reflect who you are as a family, making them even more special.

6. Memories for your child

These photos aren’t just for you—they’re for your baby as they grow up. Someday, they’ll want to see what you looked like when they were born, to know the love in your eyes. Don’t deny them this special memory.
