Newborn Photos at Home | Round Rock, TX

Welcoming a new baby into the world is one of life’s most incredible moments. A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure to capture Jessika and Nick’s maternity photos at the beautiful Brushy Creek Lake Park in Cedar Park, TX (see blog post here). A few weeks later, their baby girl was born! Jessika and Nick welcomed me into their beautiful home in Round Rock, TX to capture Fae Delila’s in-home newborn session and share the joy of welcoming the newest addition to their sweet family. With big brother Dean, now 3 years old, by their side, this family of four radiated love, joy, and connection throughout the session.

For the occasion, Jessika chose the cutest matching shirts spelling “Mom”, “Dad”, and “Big Brother”. So much cuteness to capture! What I love about lifestyle newborn photography is that it’s all about telling the story of your family as it is right now, in the most authentic and natural way, right there in the space you call home.

Capturing Timeless Moments with Fae Delila

At just 17 days old, baby Fae Delila was an absolute dream to photograph. She spent the entire session peacefully sleeping, curled up in her parents’ arms or resting quietly beside her big brother. There’s something timeless about capturing these fleeting early days, and with her soft, delicate features and calm presence, Fae made every moment feel even more special.

Jessika and Nick’s home provided the perfect backdrop for this light and airy session. With its soft, natural lighting streaming through the windows, we created images that felt organic and full of life. Dean, full of energy and excitement, brought so much personality to the session, interacting with his baby sister in the sweetest ways. His joy and curiosity as a new big brother were so much fun to capture.

What is a Lifestyle Newborn Session?

One of the reasons I love being an Austin lifestyle newborn photographer is because these sessions focus on the real, authentic moments that make your family unique. Jessika and Nick’s session is a perfect example of this. Unlike with a traditional, in-studio posed newborn session, we didn’t need fancy backdrops or props to create something beautiful—their home, their love, and their connection with their children provided all the magic we needed.

In my newborn sessions, I aim to capture the emotions you’ll cherish for years to come. Whether it’s the way Nick looked at his baby girl, the tender moments Jessika spent hugging Fae, or Dean’s playful nature as he interacted with his sister, these moments are as timeless as they are meaningful.

Is a Lifestyle In-Home Newborn Session Right for Me?

If you are looking for a natural approach to capturing your family’s newborn moments, a lifestyle session may be exactly what you’re looking for. These sessions are designed to be relaxed and fun, focusing on the authentic emotions and connections that make your family so special. With lifestyle photography, there are no elaborate props or stiff poses—just you, your baby, and the everyday moments you’ll want to remember forever.

As an Austin lifestyle newborn photographer, my goal is to provide my clients with timeless images that reflect the heart of their family. Whether it’s in your living room, nursery, or even outdoors, we’ll work together to create something meaningful that you’ll treasure forever.

For Jessika, Nick, Dean, and little Fae, this session was all about celebrating the arrival of their newest family member and embracing the joy of becoming a family of four.

When to Take Newborn Photos?

Regardless of the type of newborn session you are looking to book, whether it be a traditional newborn session or a lifestyle session, the best time to schedule your session is in the first 7 to 14 days of your baby’s life. At that age, baby is still pretty sleepy, making it a much more relaxed experience for both baby and the parents.
