Lincoln In Home Newborn Session // The Migliore Family

Capturing the early days of a newborns life is a gift that allows families to remember every tender detail of this fleeting season. The Migliore family invited me into their beautiful home to document their precious new addition, baby Elliot, in an intimate and authentic way.

A Calm Approach to Newborn Sessions—Even When Baby Is Fussy

Let’s be honest—newborn sessions don’t always go as planned. Babies have their own schedules and moods, and sometimes they’re a bit fussy. But here’s the good news: even if your little one isn’t in the calmest mood, we can still create stunning, heartfelt images that celebrate this special time.

During Elliot’s session, he experienced some fussiness (which is completely normal!), but that didn’t stop us from capturing moments filled with love and connection. With patience and a flexible approach, we worked around his needs, creating an environment where the entire family could relax and enjoy the process. The result? Gorgeous, true-to-life images that reflect the reality of this season. Beautiful & messy.

Why In-Home Newborn Lifestyle Sessions Are Special

In-home lifestyle sessions provide a cozy, familiar setting for families. Your home becomes the backdrop, making each photo unique and personal. It also allows me to capture genuine moments that feel natural, from cuddles on the couch to quiet moments in the nursery. For the Migliore family, their master bedroom and nursery were the perfect settings to showcase their bond as they held baby Elliot close.

What stood out most during this session was the connection between Elliot and his parents. The way they looked at him, held him, and poured their love into each moment was beautiful to witness. I love focusing on these small details—the soft touch of a mother’s hand, the way a father gazes at his child, and the tiny features of a newborn’s face. These are the moments you’ll cherish forever.

While posed shots are lovely, my heart is drawn to candid moments that tell a story. Whether it’s a fleeting glance, a gentle kiss, or even a yawn, these unscripted details give life to your photos. For baby Elliot, the quiet moments in his parents’ arms truly captured the raw emotion of this newborn stage.

Baby Elliot’s session is a testament to the magic of embracing the unpredictable nature of newborns. Even in moments of fussiness, we created timeless images that celebrate the love and connection within the Migliore family.
