A Genuine, Relaxed Newborn Session with the Fendley Family
As a Little Rock newborn photographer, I’m passionate about capturing newborns and families in a way that feels real – never overly posed, never rushed. When the Fendleys welcomed their second baby boy, we created a session that was both refined and deeply personal.
Their session was split into two beautiful settings: one in my natural-light studio, and one in the comfort of their own home. The result? A heartfelt blend of timeless portraits and story-driven lifestyle images that reflect the energy of their growing family.
💡 Included in every session: Studio and at-home coverage. There’s no extra charge for two locations—this dual approach is built into your experience when you book with me as your Little Rock newborn photographer.
The Studio Session: Soft, Minimal, and Timeless
We began with a classic studio setup: soft tones; organic textures; and baby-led posing. This is where film photography shines – capturing every subtle detail in a way that feels elevated and emotive.
These types of portraits are perfect for fine art prints, heirloom albums, and long-term legacy pieces.
At-Home Lifestyle Session: Real Moments, Real Emotion
Later that week, I joined the Fendleys in their home. These sessions are all about letting life unfold naturally – with toddlers bouncing off beds, feeding breaks, and quiet snuggles in familiar spaces.
I always encourage families to include an at-home portion in their newborn experience. It captures a chapter that no studio can replicate – the space where your story genuinely happens.
As a Little Rock newborn photographer who specializes in both digital and film formats, I love giving families the best of both worlds: editorial-quality images and personal storytelling.
Big Brother Energy: Real Life with Two Littles
Toddlers rarely sit still – and they shouldn’t have to. Big brother brought so much energy and curiosity to the session, and those unscripted moments became some of my favorite images from the entire gallery.
“I’m so in love with these images, especially of my boys!!! The lighting and framing is perfect, and you captured the best candids and sweetest portraits. I will cherish these all of my days!!!” — Lauren Fendley
Why This Little Rock Photographer Includes Two Locations in Every Newborn Session
Most families think they have to pick between a polished studio session or cozy lifestyle images – but when you book with me, you get both.
There’s no additional charge for multiple locations. I believe your story deserves space to unfold, which is why all of my full newborn sessions include both in-home and studio coverage (if desired).
This flexible, full-coverage approach is just one of the things that sets me apart as a Little Rock newborn photographer focused on connection over perfection.
