Why Newborn Safety is My Top Priority for In-Home Sessions

Welcoming a new baby into your family is one of the most exciting and tender moments in life. When it comes to photographing your newborn, safety is always my top priority—whether we’re in my studio or in the comfort of your home.

To ensure the highest standards of care, I have successfully completed the KBO Newborn Safety Guidelines & Assessment with a 100% score. This certification highlights my expertise in newborn anatomy, safe posing, and proper handling practices, so you can feel confident that your little one is in expert hands throughout the session.

How I Prioritize Safety During In-Home Sessions

  1. Safe Posing Anywhere: I use poses that are natural and safe for your baby, no matter the setting. For more intricate looks, I create composites by editing multiple images together, ensuring your baby is never placed in a risky position.
  2. A Clean & Comfortable Setup: I bring everything needed for the session, including sanitized props, wraps, and equipment. Your home becomes the perfect backdrop, and I take great care to ensure the environment is clean and calm.
  3. Temperature Control: Babies are sensitive to their surroundings, so I work with you to find a warm, cozy space in your home for the session.
  4. Proper Support for Every Pose: Whether we’re using a favorite prop or your own furniture, I ensure everything is secure and supported and your baby is never left unattended.
  5. Flexibility & Baby-Led Pacing: At home, your baby can set the pace. Need to pause for a feeding or soothing? I plan extra time into every session to keep things stress-free for both you and your little one.

The Benefits of Choosing an In-Home Newborn Session

Your home is where your family feels most at ease, and it provides a personal and meaningful backdrop for your baby’s first portraits. By bringing my expertise to you, I make the process convenient and comfortable while maintaining the highest standards of safety and professionalism.

Completing the KBO Newborn Safety Guidelines & Assessment with a 100% score reflects my dedication to keeping your little one safe and secure. This certification means you can trust me to handle your baby with care while creating timeless images you’ll cherish forever.
