Guest post by Boston Makeup Artist, Creative Contour By Carla Beauties, congratulations on your new bundle of joy! What an exciting new journey you are starting, parenthood! I am so proud of you. Parenthood comes with joy, but also comes with exhaustion, dehydration, and a lot of stress. You are doing your best, remind yourself...
Boston in-home newborn photo session When it comes to capturing the early newborn days, one of the most common questions I get is, “should we do our newborn photos in a studio or at home?” While both options are beautiful in their own way, there’s something special about choosing to do your newborn photo session...
The first year of your baby’s life is a whirlwind of growth, change, and precious moments that seem to fly by. From the excitement of pregnancy to the sleepy newborn days and those first wobbly steps, each stage is worth capturing. But with a busy life and a little one to care for, it’s easy to let these milestones slip by without professional photos.
Newborn photography is all about capturing the precious first moments of your baby’s life in a way that feels timeless and natural. A cozy and minimalist approach allows the focus to remain on your baby, creating soft, organic, and natural images. Whether you’re planning an in-home or studio session, here are some tips to achieve a simple, warm, and beautifully minimalist look for your newborn photoshoot.
When I hopped on the phone with Christine to discuss her Savin Hill Dorchester Newborn Photographer session, she told me something that I have heard over and over. She wasn’t planning on hiring a professional photographer, but now her baby was 7 weeks old and she realized she only had (not so great) iPhone photos of her! Not only that, but MOM wasn’t in most of them! She really wanted to document this time while her baby is tiny, and ALSO be in the pictures!
I’ve been up editing since 3am… anyone else have a child who barely eats dinner and then wakes up way too early STARVING??? Ugh
Popping out of my editing hole to share this session I just wrapped. I know everyone loves fall foliage but for me, wildflowers will always be the best 🥰
I know I am horrible about posting, but Fall is getting booked QUICK. I can only take so many sessions each month, so if you’re hoping to get on my calendar this year (including newborns and maternity) please let me know ASAP!
So many sessions I haven’t shared yet! This one was a stunner 😍😍
The sweetest review 🥰🥰🥰
Your little family 😍😍😍
Remembering the spring blooms as I rip out one billion weeds in my garden 😍😍
Kindest words from this client— “These are AMAZING! I have had multiple people tell me these are the best family photos I’ve ever had, and some of the most beautiful photography they have ever seen. I was a little nervous with Rigby being so active, and us being sweaty hot messes but these are beyond beautiful. Thank you so much!“

“Will be coming back to Whitney for family photos! Her 10+ years of experience really showed through! Here is what I loved:
The wardrobe she offered up for postpartum moms for the photoshoot. I loved that she provided a link in advance so when I showed up to her studio I already knew what I wanted to try on. I opted to wear my own dress that I brought because my skin tone looks better in bright whites.
The ease! All I had to do was show up and the studio was stocked with food, baby changing table, cozy couch – it’s like showing up to a friends home!
Efficient – Whitney was amazing with my baby and she was able to calm her down and position the baby for beautiful pictures! The time flew and we opted for the larger package because the photos came out fantastic we couldn’t choose!
Friendly – Whitney was welcoming and patient when our baby became hungry during the shoot! She let us feed her mid way through the shoot!
Preparation – upon arrival to the studio she had outfit options laid out for the baby! It made the process less stressful and easy!
Fast turn around in pictures! Got finished pictures in less than 2 weeks! All amazing quality and she even did a minor edit on one within 24 hours upon request.
I can’t recommend her enough! No cons! Just book Whitney and you won’t regret it.”
