The Outdoor
Newborn Session
Photographing a newborn outdoors looks effortless — when you know how to keep the baby safe, the light working for you, and the camera doing exactly what you ask.
This is a working afternoon, not a lecture. You'll be behind the camera with two real newborns and their families in a natural setting, with me beside you guiding every choice — from the safest way to settle a baby into a basket to the settings that turn open shade into a portrait.
The afternoon, start to finish
Safety first, always
How to handle, support, and settle a newborn outside — spotting, props that won't shift, reading the baby, and never leaving safety to chance.
Settings that hold up outdoors
Dialing in exposure, focus, and white balance in changing natural light so you're not fighting your camera while you direct the scene.
Posing in a real setting
Building a clean, comfortable pose with baskets and layers against a living backdrop — composition, angles, and where to stand.
Working with the family
Directing parents and siblings outdoors, keeping the energy calm, and folding family frames into the session without losing the light.
What to know before you book
Leave with images you're proud to put in your portfolio.
Spots are intentionally limited so everyone gets real time behind the camera and real feedback.
