Lifestyle Newborn Session in Lee’s Summit, Missouri

Welcoming a new baby into your home is a big adjustment, especially with a toddler and a dog in the mix! I recently had the chance to photograph an in-home newborn session for a sweet family in Lee’s Summit, Missouri. These early days are full of tender moments, sibling curiosity, and a little bit of chaos—all worth documenting.

The session was simple and natural—snuggles on the couch, big brother checking on his new sibling, and the dog never far away.

Bonus: our star-of-the-show newborn was so photogenic! His camera curiosity made for some precious photos.

These in-home sessions are a great way to capture the early days from the comfort of your own home. For the freshly postpartum mamas, this means you can ditch the stress of getting dressed up and leaving the house. We keep these sessions organic, focusing on the small moments that tell a family’s story. In my opinion, candid photos make the best memories!

For families in Lee’s Summit and the greater Kansas City area, lifestyle newborn photography offers a relaxed way to capture these early days—no stiff poses, just real moments. If you're looking for newborn and family photos that feel true to your story, I’d love to help.
