Can we take family photos in winter? | Vancouver Newborn Photographer

Looking for a newborn photographer this winter?
Outdoor family photo sessions are popular from April to October, as the weather is warmer and the foliage is beautiful. During cold winter months, it is typically the slow season for family photographers, but it’s the perfect time for indoor photo sessions!

I’ve been busy this winter booking in-home newborn sessions and even some in-home family sessions. Some families are concern that their home isn’t Pintrest worthy for photos, I reassure them that decor isn’t important, as my focus is on capturing their connection in everyday life. There are so many moments in our home that may seem mundane, but quintessentially represent you as a family. Kids playing with their pets, snuggling with mom on the sofa, or tumbling around on the rug, these are the moments that make up our lives, and are definitely worth capturing.

I am here to reassure you that your home can be the perfect backdrop for family photos.

Newborn Sessions
I always do newborn sessions in the comforts of your own home. These first few weeks as new parents can be awfully daunting and tiresome. I do my best to keep baby and parents comfortable. I don’t use any props, just you loving your new baby is beautiful enough.

My house is dark and messy
I use natural light from windows, most homes will have one or two large windows that I can work with. I will take a quick tour to scout out the best areas for us to photograph. Your home doesn’t need to be neat! With a newborn or multiple toddlers at home, it’s difficult to keep a spotless home. As long as there is space for us to photograph, I may move some furniture around to give us the best spot.

Are in-home session for newborns only?
Newborn sessions are held at home but I have photographed families with toddlers at their homes as well! Outdoor sessions provide better natural lighting, and larger space for children to roam about. In-home sessions are intimate and showcase sweet moments that you may otherwise overlook. I love to photograph families reading together, snuggling on the bed, and enjoying their favourite toys.
