What is a Lifestyle Newborn Session?

This session is different than the majority of the sessions that Gibson Photography does!  A Lifestyle Newborn Session is done in the client’s home, usually.  It is not really posed in the sense that it looks like studio photos.  No props, just baby and the surroundings in the home.  Lifestyle Newborn Sessions are no fuss sessions.  Regardless of whether the baby is awake or asleep, the session will proceed.  Interactions with mom and dad and siblings in your own environment, is what it is all about!

How does it all work!

In addition to using natural light, Off Camera flash and lighting techniques will be used.  However, natural light is always the first choice.  Moreover, I will assess your surroundings to determine where the best place to take the photos.  This is a much more natural look.   Like the baby in their crib.  The newborn baby in the bassinet.  Mom and Dad cuddling with baby in their arms on the bed!  Even on a special blanket on the floor of the living room.  It really all depends what is available and will make those photos uniquely yours.

That brings up another great point!  Lifestyle Newborn Sessions are geared towards the family and their unique attributes.  Therefore no two Lifestyle Newborn Sessions are going to be the same!  Not to mention, the photos will already have the colour palette that your home has!  It will blend and display perfectly with minimal effort!

Lifestyle Newborn Session are good if you have mobility restrictions after birth, however, some parents just find it a more pleasant experience, or look!  If you would like to know what type of session would suit you best!  Take a look on the website for some gallery samples.
