Why I Only Photograph Newborns on White.

When I photograph your newborn, I’m not just taking pictures. I’m freezing a tiny moment in time. I capture the way they kick their legs and the soft wrinkles in their skin. And for me, the very best way to honor that is by photographing them on white. Always.

Here’s why:

1. White is timeless.
I don’t follow trends when it comes to newborn photography—because your baby is not a trend. White is soft, clean, and simple. It doesn’t try too hard. It will never look outdated or overdone. Years from now, when you pull out that album, the images will still feel fresh and beautiful. They will be just as they were the day they were taken.

2. Your baby becomes the focus.
There’s no loud color or busy backdrop to distract from what matters most—your baby. Their eyelashes, their lips, the way their toes naturally curl in… every little detail becomes the star of the image. Photographing on white allows me to strip away everything else so that your baby’s natural beauty speaks for itself.

3. It celebrates every baby, just as they are.
Your little one may arrive with a head full of hair or barely a wisp. They might be sleepy or wide-eyed and curious. White highlights their features in the most natural, flattering way. It’s a soft canvas that compliments every skin tone and every baby. No props or fuss needed—they are perfect, just as they are.

4. Simplicity brings consistency.
Every image in your gallery flows together effortlessly. There’s no guesswork, no surprises. You’ll know exactly what to expect. You can feel confident knowing your photos will match the rest of my work as will all your sessions. White creates a calm and consistent feel across your images. It’s peaceful. It’s honest. It’s beautifully understated.

So when you look at your baby’s portraits, I hope you see more than a pretty photo. I hope you see the quiet miracle of those first days, preserved in a way that lets their tiny soul shine through. Nothing added. Nothing needed. Just them.
