SPECIAL NOTICE
UPDATE
January 2024
At LSP we take the health, happiness and well-being of your family to heart so we are always up to date with important vaccinations including COVID-19, seasonal flu and Tdap vaccinations. I will always ask you if you prefer that myself and any LSP associates wear a mask to your in-home photography session.
You can read our COVID-19 policies here.
We create beautiful, natural newborn photographs that are truly timeless.
The first weeks of your newborn's arrival are filled with excitement and emotion. Our Newborn Photography Sessions at LoLo Spencer Photography are the perfect way to capture those fleeting moments and create memories for years to come. Let us help you celebrate the new addition to your family with stunning, one-of-a-kind newborn photos.
Browse the Newborn gallery below to see what we do or skip ahead for more details.
NEWBORN SESSIONS
Newborn babies are usually photographed anywhere from 7-14 days. This is the optimal time to get those dreamy, sleepy, curly baby photographs that are so sought after. This session consists of styled poses often using wraps, blankets, and props such as baskets and posing bowls.
Lifestyle Newborn Sessions aren't as constrained by this time frame and are a bit more casual approach. There may be some gently guided posing but the intention is to capture more natural images of your baby with you and your family in your home. These sessions can be done up to 6 weeks old and usually last 2 hours.
Newborn Sessions do take longer than Family and other sessions. This extra time is necessary to allow for frequent feeding, posing, cleaning up (yup, stuff happens), or getting the baby to sleep. Basically, whatever baby needs. We're on baby's time for this session and we respect that.
