We can make it work.

One challenge of being a photographer with limited equipment and no studio is finding locations to meet families and capture photos worthy of displaying. Being an optimistic person, I like to turn a tough situation into something that works. Often what begins as a potential challenge can be the best option in the long run.

For instance, at a recent photo shoot, a client had me meet them at their home to get a few family shots and lots of sweet baby photos. We climbed the stairs to the baby's room and were able to use the light from the nursery window and baby things from around the house to create a fun photo environment. I enjoy those opportunities to take what is comfortable to a client and use it as a part of their experience. Taking a newborn out of her home for a photo shoot could have been a stressful experience for the whole family.

So, my answer to someone who wonders how to make a photo session with a baby successful is...

no worries, we can make it work.

Here are some of the pictures from that home.
