Choosing Between an In-home and Outdoor Newborn Photo Session

The allure of an outdoor newborn photoshoot might have you wondering if you should do an in-home session or an outdoor newborn photoshoot. This can be a difficult decision, as there are several things to consider.

You might think an in-home photo shoot is the only option. It’s common to think of how you would stage your new baby at home for a photo shoot. However, you also have the option of doing an outdoor newborn photoshoot.

Let’s look at both options to help you choose the right one for you and your new baby.

In-Home Newborn Photo Shoot

One of the top reasons you might choose an in-home newborn photoshoot is the feeling of safety. You’re inside your home, so it’s a bit more of a secure environment compared to an outdoor location. If you’re worried about the safety of your baby, an in-home newborn photoshoot offers a great option.

In-home shoots also allow you to capture your baby in their crib or even on a front porch swing with mom and dad. You can even capture your baby in front of your home or in a garden found in your backyard. Even with an in-home newborn photoshoot, you can bring in some outdoor elements, depending on your property.

Outdoor Newborn Photo Shoot

If you are a nature lover, an outdoor newborn photoshoot might fit your style better. It’s a great way to introduce your new child to the outdoors and let them enjoy the fresh air and a natural setting.

An outdoor newborn photoshoot offers plenty of unique options you simply cannot recreate indoors. Whether you want photos of your baby to match a certain theme in the nursery, or you’re just looking for a unique backdrop, an outdoor photoshoot might be the right choice.

Outdoor photos use natural light, which cannot be recreated indoors. It simply makes for a better picture, but it’s not the right option for every family or every newborn baby.

Making Your Final Decision

Like many things in life, there isn’t a right or wrong choice between an in-home or outdoor newborn photoshoot. It’s a bit of a personal preference based on what you think is best for the safety of your new baby and your own style.

Both options offer the ability to include the entire family in the photo session. Whether you prefer an in-home newborn photoshoot or you’d rather be outdoors, the right newborn photographer will ensure you get the photos you desire.
