Welcome, friends! I’m Christina Runnals, a lifestyle photographer based on the South Shore of Massachusetts. I photograph growing families, joyful seniors, and everything in between. I use this blog to share some of the most heartwarming sessions I get to be a part of. Today, I’m excited to bring you a peek into a recent Norwell MA newborn photography session that truly felt like a breath of fresh air.

Grandparents’ Home Turned Nursery Wonderland

This session was extra special because it took place in the most beautiful, light-filled home in Norwell. The home belongs to baby Madeline’s grandparents. The family is currently living there while closing on their new house nearby, and let me tell you… they made magic happen with their setup!

The house did not have a nursery to take photos in. Therefore, Madeline’s grandmother – an artist with impeccable taste – helped transform a cozy corner of the home into a stunning, storybook-worthy space just for the shoot. Think: soft blush tones, floral prints. A charming hand-knit bunny perched on a vintage armchair. Additionally, delicate baby clothes hung up like a little gallery of sweetness. Every detail was thoughtful, curated, and full of love.

The Family Behind the Photos

This beautiful family of four was such a joy to photograph. Mom wore a soft, floral puff-sleeve dress that perfectly complemented the cozy, romantic aesthetic of the space. Dad and big brother matched in dusty rose and white… barefoot and relaxed, exactly how a lifestyle session should be. Baby Madeline was peacefully wrapped in a creamy swaddle and slept sweetly for most of the session (a photographer’s dream!).

Some of my favorite moments from this session included big brother gently reaching out to his sister while she lay in a woven basket, Mom’s radiant smile as she held both of her babies on the bed, and the way Dad looked down at his newborn daughter with quiet joy.

Light, Love, and Lifestyle Moments

I always say that in-home newborn sessions are less about the props and more about the connection, and this one was a perfect example. The soft morning light, the neutral textures, and the warm energy of this family made the whole morning feel calm and unrushed. There were snuggles on the bed, tiny toes being kissed, and laughter that filled the room.

These are the moments I aim to capture with Norwell MA newborn photography – not just portraits, but the feeling of home, of beginnings, of love taking shape in real time.
