What is Motherhood Photography? Motherhood Photography captures the essence of motherhood and this can come in many forms. In some instances, an in-home lifestyle session might freeze a moment of a mom holding her baby while her other children are snuggling in close too. Baltimore Newborn Photographer, Rebecca Leigh Photography loves to capture these moments […]

Photographing newborns with older siblings are usually the busiest, movement filled photo sessions. Take it from Ellicott City Newborn Photographer, Rebecca Leigh Photography. These sessions usually take the full 3 hours to account for everything happening behind the scenes. Even when things are going perfectly it might feel chaotic to parents coordinating their baby’s needs […]

It’s snuggle time. This is what newborn photography sessions are about when it comes to incorporating sibling and family portraits. You may have some special memories of when your first born was introduced to your second baby. And we love to capture the relationship on camera. I’ll never forget the first thing my 2 year […]

I like to know ahead of time […]

I offer two studio session types for newborns. Parents that want just a few photos of their baby only, might be interested in the 1 hour, Newborn Only – All Wrapped Studio Session. The reason the 1 hour session is “All Wrapped” is because once a newborn is securely swaddled, they are usually quite content […]

Full Newborn Studio Sessions are usually scheduled around 10:30am and last until 1:30pm. Why are Newborn Studio Sessions 2-3 hours long?
