Southern Maine Home Newborn Family Photographer

A happy couple holds newborn son swaddled in forest green on porch as their cat peers through window for a newborn shoot in Southern, Maine.

This lifestyle in-home newborn photo session hits my heart hard and is one of my favorite shoots that I ever photographed. The magic of the "first home" newborn days (though exhausted and with discomfort) where time stands still and the exuberant glow of first-time parents are the makings of meaningful imperfect perfection and makes this momma of five miss her own newborn days.

I gushed over how this couple gazed at one another during the shoot. Their little son Bodhi is so blessed to be part of their circle of love. When I asked the parents what their hope for their precious little boy was they said, "Looking forward to seeing Bodhi discover all of the beauty that the world has to offer, how it will shape him, and how he will take that beauty and pass it on through his own personal encounters of life...Our wish for Bodhi is to be able to enjoy all of the big and small moments."
