Three Things I Love About Newborn Photography – Omaha Newborn Photographer

It’s no secret that I love what I do. If you follow me on social media, you’ll hear me gush about it all the time. I figured, why not take a little moment to gush about it a little more! Here are my top 3 things/reasons I love newborn photography.

#1 The Sessions are Calming

Yes, you read that right. Newborn sessions are very calming for me. Typically, families tend to be more quiet about babies, even younger siblings. The entire family basically takes the time to soak in all the newness of the baby, making the energy surrounding the house is very relaxing.

Also, new parents – no matter if it’s a first-time parent or a parent of 4 – are on (what I call) the new baby high. Everyone is happy, peaceful and still on cloud 9 as if the baby smell is intoxicating them. They all tend to smile easier and are more into the moment with very little distractions. Picture it. It’s very calming.

#2 So Much Love

As I mentioned before, the new baby high is still in full effect when I schedule newborn lifestyle sessions. Part of that high is exuding nothing but love and joy over this little bundle of joy they created. Being the empath that I am, I always walk into a house that has a newborn baby and it feels as though I’ve been wrapped in a warm hug. You can’t help but feel like you’re floating on the cloud with them.

#3 Because, Babies

This really goes without saying, but the best part about newborn sessions is obviously the babies! I mean, who DOESN’T love babies?! Even though I am completely fulfilled with my three goons, I still love getting in some baby snuggles…then handing them back off to their parents 😉

One thing that didn’t make it on the list is my clients generally continue to use me as the years pass and I get the joy of watching all the babies as they grow up. It fills my soul! I’ll tell anyone who listens that I’m a photographer for purely selfish reasons – it makes me feel good. It’s a really good thing I’m good at it too so it’s a mutually beneficial relationship 😉
