Why should you have a newborn session at home?

It is hard enough to wash your hair after having a baby; you're sleep deprived and overwhelmed at this new bundle of joy. Packing the bag to go out is a military operation at the best of times, and a trip to the shops is essentially a whole day plan. Don't rush. Let me come to you. You can get ready without having to pack and work out if you have enough bottles/changes of clothes/nappies to see you through our time. If I get there and you've focused on getting baby ready and you aren't? Fine. Sleepy baby cuddles are my thing. Plus, I can capture all of baby's details, sleepy snuggles and photos with Dad while you make sure you feel the most comfortable. I find the best light in the house (note the photos below, all by a window!) and I usually arrange my newborn shoots between 10-1 allowing 2 -2.5 hours from that point to shoot. It means you have your day either side. Go for lunch, relax. You get your sneak peaks 48 hours after, too!
