Welcoming Baby Josie in the Comfort of Home

There’s something incredibly intimate and personal about photographing a newborn session in the comfort of a family’s home. For the Frederick family, their sun-drenched master bedroom in Covington provided the perfect setting to welcome baby Josie into the world.

As a newborn photographer in Covington, I’m always looking for soft, natural light, and the Frederick home offered it in abundance thanks to large, bright windows. The warm summer light poured in and lit up the love and connection that filled the room.

A Sibling Bond Like No Other

Josie is the youngest of four, and her older siblings could hardly wait to each have a special moment with her. One by one, they took turns holding her, smiling proudly for their own portraits. Their excitement and affection for their new baby sister brought so much personality and love into each frame.

Their gentle hands cradling Josie, their giggles as they looked at her tiny features—it was the kind of pure, unscripted magic that every photographer hopes to capture.

A Photographer’s Dream Session

From wide family portraits that celebrated the joy of six, to close-up details of Josie’s fingers, toes, and her darling bonnet (and yes—a few baby smiles!), every moment felt authentic and filled with emotion.

I couldn’t stop glancing at the back of my camera, thrilled with the bright and airy tones that matched the warmth and joy in the room. It’s sessions like this one that remind me why I love being a newborn photographer in Covington so much.

A Family Complete

This session wasn’t just about documenting the arrival of a newborn—it was about telling the story of a family now complete. The Frederick family’s deep connection and overflowing love were truly moving to witness and capture. Their trust in letting me into their home during such a special season was a gift.
