At-Home Newborn Session | Grider

Auburn Alabama Newborn Lifestyle Photography Inspiration by Ellen Wagner Photo

This newborn session is full of light and joy. I traveled a few hours north to the foothills of Alabama, home to Rosa, her husband Brody, her 3-year-old daughter Clara, and their new baby boy, Noah. This session was so special to me as I love capturing the normal everyday moments of life with families – the ones you want to remember forever.

I love to capture the moments that are fleeting. The ones that you will look back on and say “I remember my silly little girl and how she always fill in the blank

I am not the photographer that is going to force you and your family into uncomfortably posed photos that you will look back on remembering how difficult it was to get everyone looking perfect and smiling. The mundane moments are the ones that I miss as a mother, and the ones I love capturing.

Rosa is a photographer herself and wanted photos with her family that she could be a part of. She wanted to be able to have photos that show the close connection she has with each member of her family, and I am so glad I was able to provide that for her.

I love getting to work with the silly siblings of the new baby in the home. It is special for me to be able to give them special attention and make them feel important in the family. Clara was shy at first but warmed up really quickly as we played around. She showed me her room and her smiley face balloon.

Baby boy Noah is so loved by his sweet, silly family.

It is such an honor when a family hires me to celebrate the arrival of a new family member. I would love to visit your home for a meaningful lifestyle newborn photography session.
