As a Cleveland Newborn Photographer, I understand the importance of capturing those precious early moments of your little one’s life. When it comes to choosing between a studio vs in home session, there are several factors to consider. Let’s explore the pros and cons of each option, to help you make the best decision for your family.
Studio Sessions: Embracing Controlled Environment
Pros:
- Controlled Environment: One of the main advantages of a studio session is the controlled environment it offers. With an all white background, it’s incredibly hard to take a bad picture! The lighting is always beautiful and will make every photo gorgeous!
- Limited Distractions: If you will have young children in the portraits, it can be beneficial to take your newborn portraits at a studio where the distractions are limited. No toys, television or every day life can keep their attention elsewhere.
- No Cleaning Required: Although I don’t require you to clean your home for an in home newborn session, I know it can be overwhelming thinking you need to clean up before your session. With a studio session, you can just pack up what you need and leave the mess at home.
Cons:
- Less Personalized: Some families may find that the studio setting lacks the personal touch and familiarity of their own home.
- Travel Required: Depending on the location of the studio, you may need to factor in travel time and logistics, especially during those early days with a newborn.
In-Home Session: Embracing Familiar Surroundings
Pros:
- Comfort and Convenience: This is a big pro to having an in home session, as you can avoid leaving the house for your session. It gives you more time to prepare, all of your essential items are within arms reach and if you have siblings joining your session, they can easily take breaks when needed.
- Variety in Backgrounds: Usually during an in home session, I will shoot in the nursery, master bedroom, and occasionally in the living room or outside. However, I will go wherever the light is best. Sometimes this can be a hallway, front door or the dining room. But I try my best to always start in the nursery that I know you spent hours planning out all those perfect details!
- More Relaxed Posing: This requires very simple, basic posing and leads to more of a lifestyle look for the images. Plus, you can include your family pets this way as well!
Cons:
- Limited Control: While natural light can be stunning, it’s also unpredictable. We may need to work with the available light in your home, which could pose challenges depending on the time of day and the rooms we hoped to photograph in.
- Cleaning: As I mentioned before, I don’t require you to do a deep clean of your home before your session. But do encourage a quick tidy up of removing toys and clutter out of the way. In those unpredictable early days, I can understand tidying up being the last thing on your mind!
Whether you opt for a studio vs in home newborn photography session, the most important thing is to choose an environment where you and your baby feel comfortable and relaxed. As a Cleveland Newborn Photographer, I am committed to capturing timeless images that reflect the unique personality of your family, regardless of the setting. If you’re still unsure which option is right for you, don’t hesitate to reach out, I’m happy to help guide you through the decision-making process!

There’s something truly magical about watching a family expand and evolve over the years. Recently, I had the honor of photographing a family for the second time at the Lake Arts Studio, welcoming their newest addition, a precious little girl, to the world. With two sweet little girls now filling their home with love, capturing their growing family was a delightful experience. Their session was held at Lake Arts Studio, bathed in natural light and overlooking Lake Erie, provided the perfect backdrop for this Cleveland newborn photography session.
Revisiting a family for a second newborn portrait session is like rekindling a beautiful love story. It’s a testament to the enduring bond between a photographer and their loyal families, and I was overjoyed to be part of this chapter in their lives. Welcoming a new baby into the family is a special moment, and I was determined to capture it in all its radiant beauty.

One of the keys to a successful newborn portrait session is to work around the baby’s schedule. We made sure to accommodate feedings, nap times, and any other needs the newborn had. This not only ensured a happy and cooperative baby but also created a calm and relaxed atmosphere in the studio. The addition of a toddler to the family adds a unique dimension to the portrait session. Toddlers are known for their unpredictable behavior, but with patience and understanding, we were able to engage and entertain older sis, making her feel like an important part of the session. Her playful presence added an element of authenticity to the photographs, capturing the beautiful connection between the two sisters.
Lake Arts Studio proved to be the perfect setting for this portrait session. The studio’s bright, white interior, flooded with natural light from large windows overlooking Lake Erie, created a serene and heavenly atmosphere. The soft, diffused light accentuated the delicate features of the newborn and cast a soft glow on the family, making the photos truly captivating. The studio, with its tranquil ambiance and the family’s affectionate bond, made every click of the camera feel like an intimate celebration of their growing love.

Are you searching for a Parma newborn photographer before your little bundle of joy arrives? I would love to talk more with you! Be sure to take a glimpse at this Parma newborn session below.
Bringing a new life into the world is a momentous occasion and a time of joy, love, and anticipation. When you add to that the excitement of a recent engagement, (you can read about it from their maternity session here!) you have a family that’s embracing an entire chapter of new beginnings!
These new parents welcomed me into their home that they had moved into not too long ago. The nursery was cozy, light-filled & adorned in various shades of pink. The soft, natural light streaming in through the windows painted a perfect canvas, enhancing the beauty of this precious chapter in their lives. In the nursery, amidst the pink, we captured more than just photographs. We documented the warmth, love, and hope that new parents feel as they begin a beautiful chapter of their lives.
