A Light & Airy In-Home Newborn Session in Winston-Salem, NC

There’s something incredibly special about photographing newborns in the comfort of their own home—especially when that home is filled with dreamy natural light and soft, neutral tones. This recent in-home newborn session in Winston-Salem, NC, was everything I love about lifestyle photography: relaxed, heartfelt, and beautifully lit.

From the moment I stepped into their home, I knew this session would be a dream. The walls were painted in warm whites and soft grays, which acted as the perfect canvas for the natural light pouring through the windows. The entire space radiated peace and calm, which was the perfect atmosphere for welcoming a new baby.

Baby Milo was an absolute angel—sleepy, snuggly, and content to be wrapped in soft muslin swaddles and nestled in their parents’ arms. We kept the session simple and organic, focusing on connection and emotion. Mom and Dad were naturals in front of the camera, soaking in every sweet moment with their little one.

One of my favorite parts of this session was capturing the nursery. Thoughtfully designed with minimal, light-toned decor and soft textures, it felt like a serene little haven. A cozy rocking chair by the window created the perfect spot for quiet cuddles and some of my favorite portraits from the day.

My editing style leans toward light and airy, and this session was a perfect fit. The combination of natural light, pale walls, and gentle textures allowed every photo to feel soft, timeless, and full of love. These are the kinds of sessions I live for—real moments, captured in a way that feels as beautiful and genuine as they are.

If you’re in the Winston-Salem area and expecting a little one, I’d love to help you preserve these fleeting newborn days with an in-home session tailored to your family’s unique story. Reach out and let’s create something beautiful together.
