An in home newborn photoshoot with a dog in Cairns
If you are looking for an in home newborn photoshoot with a dog in Cairns, then this post is for you!
There’s a saying, “Never work with animals or children”. Both are unpredictable, but I can hand on heart say I love working with both. Families often worry that their dog may not cooperate during their session, especially when navigating a newborn also. Today, I’d love to share with you Grace and Tom’s in home newborn photoshoot with a dog to prove it can successfully be done!
Their Jack Russell, Angus and I became fast friends. He offered me plenty of cuddles throughout. In exchange for pats of course!
The thing I love most about in home newborn photoshoots is how relaxed they are, and absolutely no pressure on new parents. No rushing to get out the door on time, no stressing about packing sterilised bottles or navigating breastfeeding in a strange place, no forgetting important things or using an unfamiliar bathroom post partum. You can get ready at your own pace and feel completely comfortable in your own home. There are so many things to think about when you’ve just had a baby, especially if it’s your first.
Grace and Tom made me feel so welcome in their home.
They live in a beautiful Queenslander in Cairns, so we used various parts of their home during their newborn photoshoot.
Grace is a graphic designer, having previously designed for Pure Baby and Kmart. There were a few of her designs she asked to include in their photoshoot including a suit baby Darcy was wearing, a wrap, a cot quilt and a wall hanging. (You can find Grace’s business via this link)
She also has an Etsy shop for her designs – though she’s taking a short break while on maternity leave.
Grace and Tom make such wonderful parents. Chatting to teacher Tom, we share so many of the same values when it comes to raising children and photographing their new baby was a pleasure. I hope you love their photos as much as I do.
