What colors should you incorporate in your newborn session?
One of the questions I always ask clients before newborn sessions is about what colors they would like to use for their session.
Having a cohesive color palette goes such a long way to creating creating beautiful images and artwork and I want to make sure to include colors that speak to you the most. I work exclusively with neutral, natural color palettes: whites, grays, browns, tans, and pale pink (for my baby girls). But neutrals are far from boring or routine. I use different textures and shades to bring interest to images without being distracting, and to ensure that your images are as unique as your family.
I always use white in my newborn sessions. It’s a signature of mine, and white is a classic timeless choice that photographs well for every baby. And it provides a perfect transition between family portraits, which are done on a white background, and newborn portraits.
What you select next it up to you though. Here are some of my favorite combinations:
For boys:
- white & dark gray
- white & light gray
- white & brown
For girls:
- white & light gray
- white & and pink
- all white
Ultimately, you can't go wrong with any color combination that you pick. When making your selection, I recommend choosing the colors that speak to you most. Because they are generally all neutrals, any wall art that you select is likely to go well in any nursery or room in your home. And when in doubt, you always have the option for "artist's choice" - in which I make the selections for you.

Mirabelle's Newborn Session | DC Area Baby Photographer
Every session just gets sweeter and sweeter. I’ve been so fortunate to work with this family several times now, and each time is even better than the last. With baby Mirabelle they are officially a family of four, with two under two! I have always loved the idea of sisters (I, personally, have a son and 4 brothers - so sisters is so novel to me!) and these two are so close in age - I imagine them stealing each other’s clothes as teenagers in no time.
I’ve loved getting to photograph this family over the few years with their two babies, including big sister’s newborn session, and mama’s second maternity session. Here are some of my favorite images from Mirabelle’s newborn session - enjoy!
