Some potential clients struggle to decide if they would prefer to do their newborn photo session inside of their home or on-location at a local venue?
I will always recommend their home as the best newborn session location: Click Here to read why; however, I do believe that outdoor locations can and do work well too!
Here Are a Few Reasons Why You Might Want to Schedule An Outdoor Newborn Session:
You don’t want to do them in your home (point blank): Some clients prefer not to do them in their home for whatever reason and that is ok (maybe they are in transition with packing and/or just moved into a new home or maybe they are currently residing with in-laws), there can be a whole host of personal reasons and those reasons shouldn’t deter you from capturing your baby’s first moments of life as a newborn.
You live further away and would like to commute to your preferred photographer’s designated location: Many clients opt to commute when they prefer to work with a specific photographer who might be further away from their home and they opt to meet at one of the photographer’s designated and well photographed at areas.
You love the outdoors and prefer bright and vibrant colors and beautiful backgrounds: There are so many choices for outdoor scenes, especially in South Florida, where you can pretty much photography outdoors all year long. From luscious green grass and oak trees, to sandy beaches lined with palm trees, to mangroves, to bay or ocean water, the options are endless here.
You can have a little more fun with your wardrobe selection: You can select clothing styles and colors to compliment your location and look. Have fun with pretty options and accessories.
You can incorporate blankets & props easily: small throw blankets are a great item to bring to get those snuggly shots on the ground and small props/bassinets can be nice to get a few photos of the baby alone.
You can’t beat that outdoor light: whether is the direct sun at sunset or in the shade, the natural outdoor light is the most gorgeous! You can often find good light in the home by a window but you absolutely won’t be fighting for it outside.
You just want to get out of the house: you just had a baby and have been in your home every single day since and while it is more convenient to do a session at home, it will feel great to get out and enjoy a little time under the sun.
