The Newborn Days: A Beautiful Blur Worth Remembering


There’s a quiet kind of romance in the newborn days—not the candlelit kind, but the soul-deep kind. It lives in the way your baby fits perfectly in your arms, in the early morning light that gently wraps around you, and in the blur of snuggles, feedings, and the soft chaos that defines this season. These early days pass in a heartbeat, and that’s why newborn sessions matter. They aren’t about posing or perfection. They’re about remembering how it felt to fall in love with your baby—while your toddler climbs into your lap, your dog keeps a watchful eye, and your partner catches your eye across the room with that quiet, tired smile. That’s the beauty of in-home newborn sessions. They don’t ask you to pretend. You don’t have to get dressed up or go anywhere. You just be—in your space, with your people, in the swirl of emotions that make up these early days. Because that’s what I’m there to capture: not perfection. But connection. Not just baby. But the family they were born into—the proud siblings, the protective pups, the new rhythm of a home with one more heartbeat inside it. These moments? They’re the ones that get blurry as time passes. But when they’re photographed with care, you get to hold onto them forever. My approach is slow and thoughtful—baby-led, with space for cuddles, feeding breaks, and little bursts of chaos that make up the heartbeat of real family life. Whether you’re on your third cup of coffee or your third child, I’m here to gently document this fleeting season in all its wild, wonderful beauty. Based in Huntsville and serving families across Muskoka and Ontario, I’d be honoured to help you preserve it all—just as it is.
