A lifestyle session foregoes the posed shots of baby and instead focuses on capturing images of your whole family. You'll be photographed cuddling on the couch or lying in bed together, feeding baby in the nursery or rocking baby to sleep. A lifestyle session makes art out of the ordinary. For these sessions I use solely natural light and I bring just a camera, a step stool to capture interesting and flattering angles (although I will also stand on your furniture in most cases), and a few outfits or blanket options for baby. Wondering if a lifestyle session is for you? Check out the blog post here.
When should I book my session?
I recommend booking your newborn session sometime after your 20 week anatomy scan. I only take a certain number of due dates each month, and I often am booked months in advance!
Where will the session take place?
Lifestyle sessions take place within your own home. Travel fee may apply if your home is further than 30 min from Gillette, NJ.
How will I receive my images?
Your images will be delivered to you in an online proofing gallery. From there you will select your images to be fully edited and your final gallery will be delivered at full resolution and with printing rights. Interested in having Tiny Ivy Studio provide prints? No Problem! We can provide those services as well for additional cost.
What is the turnaround time for images?
Proofing galleries are delivered within 5 business days. Final galleries are delivered within 2 weeks of image selection unless otherwise discussed.
What do you bring with you?
I bring my camera, a wicker bassinet to snap some images of just baby, and some swaddle blankets/outfit options for baby. Thats IT. Lifestyle sessions are stripped down and focus on your family's connection. No props, no poses, no flash. Just natural light and your family's love for one another are all I need.
