So you’ve decided to have your precious new baby photographed. Yay! Hikari Lifestyle Photography offers Newborn Photography in Brisbane Southside at your home, in studio or in the great outdoors. So where is the best location for you? We have put together a pros and cons list for each, to hopefully make the decision a little easier for you!

In-home session: mobile newborn photography Brisbane Southside

Pros

• Not having to get everyone ready and into the car to go somewhere
• keeping everyone a little more relaxed, and in an environment they are used to (especially if there are toddler siblings)
• Your dogs/ cats are 100% welcomed to join in the photos
• Capturing what your family is like at this point in time (ie. the cot your baby first lived in, the nursery you spent lots of time decorating)

Cons

• You must de-clutter and tidy up before the shoot. This may be a big job for some parents first few weeks post-partum
• Homes that do not have plentiful natural light are not ideal for in-home photography. There must be some natural light coming into the rooms as below
