Welcome Home, Baby Lee | Chesapeake Newborn Photographer

An in-home newborn session in Chesapeake, Virginia.

A few weeks ago, I had the absolute privilege of photographing this sweet, fresh little newborn baby. There's something really special about being welcomed into a home with a new little one. I think it's a sacred time. A time for bonding, rest, and learning. Learning new routines, learning this new little human you brought into the world. It's also time for renewed hope and healing. Babies have a way with that, don't you think? Magical little creatures they are. 
nd too, I don't know about you, but during this newborn period, I could fall asleep at any point in time. I was always up for a nap! 
Somehow though, with 2 big brothers and 2 fur-siblings to look after him, I doubt there will be much napping going on. There's too may adventures to be had, too many games to play, too many stories to tell. After all, they've got to show him the ropes!

But each and every time that I am invited into a home, I am forever thankful and grateful for that opportunity. I want to intentionally and purposefully use my time with you to make the most honest, most beautiful portraits of your family and the environment as I possibly can, without interrupting the scene. 

But most of all, I'm so grateful for the opportunity to photograph the mama, who deserves so much to see herself in this beautiful, oh-so-important role she is in. She deserves to see herself the way her loved ones see her. She deserves to see her strength and her powerful love in a tangible way.
