In-home maternity and newborn lifestyle sessions will always be my absolute favorite sessions to photograph. These in-home maternity and newborn sessions in Boston with the Merritt Family were no exception!

If you’re from Maine and you’re looking for a beautiful spot for a photoshoot, I can’t recommend the Viles Arboretum enough! With spring coming up I can only imagine the beautiful colors that will start to bloom.

This newborn photoshoot was at the beautiful Foss Mountain near Eaton, New Hampshire. The top of the mountain is a relatively easy hike with a rewarding 360° view of the rolling hills in the Mt. Washington Valley.

Not sure what to dress your little one in? One thing I like to remind people is to keep it simple! You don’t need to spend countless hours stressing about the perfect outfit. When you look back on these photos, you’re most likely going to look at how tiny and beautiful the human you created was all that time ago.

As you can imagine, introducing a newborn to your fur babies can be a bit stressful at first as you wait to see how they react. Once everyone cuddled up together, we were amazed at how the dogs were so gentle and loving!

When we found out that we were expecting, I could hardly wait to start decorating a nursery for our sweet babe! As a newborn and maternity photographer, I see so many gorgeous nurseries, so I had a lot of ideas swimming around in my head!
