The Comfort of Home: Newborn and Family Photography in the Okanagan
One of my favourite things about photographing families at home is how naturally people settle into themselves in their own space. Maybe it’s the slower pace of being in familiar surroundings, or the way the light falls into our living spaces - soft, warm, and a little different each season - but in-home sessions always feel special.
We specialize in these sessions, and honestly, we love them. Your home provides so many beautiful backdrops: living rooms, nurseries, and cozy corners that are a true representation of your family. There’s something meaningful about photographing parents in the exact space where they’re getting to know their new baby - no rushing, no packing bags, no forcing smiles under bright studio lights. Just real moments, exactly as they are.
With our unique mobile setup, we can work with whatever your home naturally offers - soft window light, neutral textures, and room for little ones to move around freely. Babies stay calmer, siblings relax faster, and parents often forget the camera is even there. That’s when the magic happens: the little smirks, the stretchy newborn yawns, the way older siblings hover close, curious and proud.
Our approach is always relaxed and baby-led, focusing on gentle, natural posing that feels authentic to your family. We keep things simple and timeless so your final images blend effortlessly into any home - from modern condos to warm, heritage spaces filled with character.
One thing we’ve noticed over the years is how much families value authenticity. Everyone wants photos, of course, but what they really want are memories that look the way the moments felt. And that’s exactly what an unhurried, in-home session makes possible.
So if you ever feel like your home is too small, too messy, or “not pretty enough” for photos, trust me - it’s perfect. The focus is never the décor. It’s how you hold your baby. How your toddler squeezes your neck. How the morning light hits your couch for five quiet minutes before the day begins.
Those are the moments worth remembering, and home is the best place to find them.
