These two elements, negative space and neutral tones, are something that you can expect from every newborn session I photograph.
One of the best decisions I’ve made for my newborn photography was to stick with neutral tones. This choice has allowed me to stay consistent with my work, it suits every skin tone imaginable, and I don’t have a overwhelming wardrobe and prop collection to sort through before and after every session. Not only that, but I feel it helps to keep the focus on the baby’s beauty alone.
I want my clients to look back on their newborn images throughout the years and remember what their baby looked like at such a ripe age. I don’t want them focused on distracting elements, or have them regret a colour choice that they made because they thought, at that time, it would be cute. These neutral tones certainly help with that! No regrets, no awful colour casts on baby’s skin, and a focus on the most important element of the photo…..your baby!
I’ve never had a single complaint, and although I do get asked “Do you have anything blue for boys or something pink for my little girl?” the answer will always remain the same, nope! You can either love it or hate it, but the beauty is, there are plenty of newborn photographers around to select the style that suits you best!
I was thrilled that my style was well suited to this family. Having the pleasure of meeting and photographing their beautiful baby girl was amazing! Mom and Dad loved the neutral tones and negative space, not to mention the close up detailed images, and if you do too, you should call me 😉
