When you’re expecting a summer baby, it’s only natural to dream of bright skies, blooming flowers, and warm, joyful days ahead. While your newborn portrait session will take place indoors at our East Aurora studio, there are still so many beautiful ways to bring the essence of summer into your baby’s portrait session!
As an East Aurora newborn photography studio, we specialize in creating timeless, heartwarming portraits with subtle seasonal touches. Perfect for celebrating your baby’s arrival! Here are a few of our favorite ideas to make your summer newborn session feel extra special.
1. Summery Color Palettes
Think soft peaches, buttery yellows, and gentle seafoam greens. These are colors that reflect the warmth and lightness of the season. Whether you’re drawn to dreamy pastels or cheerful brights, we’ll curate a look that feels just right for your baby’s personality and your family’s style.
2. Floral Inspired Setups
Summer blooms offer endless inspiration. From delicate daisy headbands to floral wraps and cozy nests adorned with faux flowers, these sweet touches bring a seasonal charm to your photos. Everything in our studio is sanitized and baby safe, so you can relax and enjoy seeing your baby surrounded by beauty.
3. Lightweight Textures & Props
In the warmer months, we love using light fabrics like soft gauze, cotton wraps, and simple woven baskets. These materials photograph beautifully and give a natural, effortless feel to each image. Perfect for capturing your baby in the warm summer months!
4. Sibling Summertime Snuggles
If you have older children, including them in your summer newborn session is a lovely way to mark this special season in your family’s life. We’ll guide you through sweet sibling poses that are safe, comfortable, and full of natural connection. Think barefoot cuddles and smiles that melt your heart.
5. Fresh & Minimalist Styling
Sometimes less is more, especially when you want your baby to be the true focus. A soft neutral backdrop, a touch of greenery, and a content little face can say more than a thousand props ever could. Summer is all about lightness and a clean, airy setup captures that beautifully.
Planning Your Summer Newborn Session
Babies don’t always arrive on schedule (we totally get it!), which is why we offer flexible scheduling to accommodate early or late arrivals. Our East Aurora newborn photography studio is fully stocked with everything you need for a relaxing experience. Diapers, wipes, snacks for parents, and of course, beautiful props and outfits.
Whether this is your first baby or your fourth, you deserve photos that capture this season in your life. Let’s create something beautiful together. Reach out at my website here or book a session online here!
