York Newborn Photographer - The Joy of Lark!
This Summer, I was lucky enough to photograph brand-new mini human Lark at home with her family. This was the latest in a run of recent lifestyle newborn sessions with scrummy babies and loved-up parents and siblings which have been perfect for getting me in the mood to meet the inhabitant of my own bump!
Lifestyle newborn photography is very different from studio/posed newborn photography. It is more relaxed and free flowing with a focus on simplicity, connection and storytelling. Looking at the images from this session, if I were to give this story a name, it would be 'Joy'. Mum Lilley is a yoga teacher and the family all practice. Those happy yogic vibes are definitely shining through!
I'm sure you'll agree that Daniel is one lucky man to be surrounded by these three lovely ladies. Big sis Tulsi is exuberant in her new role and Lilley looks just beautiful despite the scary two-hours-of- sleep-a-night that she speaks of! I hope that the radiance of new-motherhood is half as kind to me! As for Lark, well words are not needed - have a look for yourself in the 'best bits' gallery below!
Visiting families' homes at this special time is always a privilege. This is a particularly beautiful home having just been renovated to Daniel's clever architectural designs. The stunning, colourful bathroom made a great backdrop for some unique family portraits. And it's reassuring to know I'm not the only one embarking on a renovation project in pregnancy/newborn state! In fact, several of the mums I have met lately are doing the same - crazy people that we are!
Lilley had these kind words to say about their shoot:
"Amy has a super eye, and a lovely calm, patient manner. She managed to capture the best of all of us for our family shoot. Can't recommend her highly enough."
