Scenes from the day
【English】
Hello everyone, this is Yoshida. 🌸
Today I would like to share an on-location newborn photo session requested by a family living in Azumino City, Nagano Prefecture. 📷✨
For this session, we created a soft and natural setup based on white and beige tones.
We began with a close-up of the baby’s tiny hands holding mom and dad’s rings. 💍
The smallness of the baby’s fingers and the family’s precious feelings came together beautifully in one very memorable image.
We also photographed the baby sleeping peacefully in a small wooden bed, wrapped in a white swaddle.
Greenery, dried flowers, and natural props were arranged around the baby to create a gentle and warm atmosphere. 🌿
By including date props and alphabet decorations, the images also became a beautiful keepsake to remember the baby’s birth.
We also created several variations by changing the outfits and bonnets during the session.
The photos with the fluffy giraffe bonnet turned out especially adorable. 🦒
Even with the same giraffe bonnet, each image has a slightly different feeling depending on the baby’s expression, hand position, and the way the stuffed animal is placed.
We also photographed the baby with a pointed hat, a ribbon, a teddy bear, and a horse, which represents this year’s Japanese zodiac animal. 🧸
The soft white and beige colors, together with greenery and flowers, created a warm and delicate overall look.
In the latter part of the session, we also photographed the baby wearing an outfit.
Compared with swaddled photos, outfit photos make it easier to see the baby’s little hands, feet, and natural movements, giving the images a slightly more grown-up feeling.
At the end, we also captured a close-up of the baby’s tiny feet. 👣
In newborn photography, I value not only portraits of the baby’s face, but also detail shots such as hands, feet, eyelashes, and lips.
These tiny details from the newborn stage become irreplaceable memories, especially when families look back later and realize just how small their baby once was.
Thank you very much for trusting me with this special newborn photo session.
I look forward to seeing you again someday. ☺️💕
