Seasonal Props and Themes

One of the easiest ways to incorporate Halloween into your newborn session is through the use of seasonal props. These are just a few ideas we can incorporate the spooky season in your newborn's session.  Tiny pumpkins or gourds can create a beautiful fall backdrop. Incorporate Halloween-themed decorations like faux cobwebs, cute, friendly ghosts, or autumn leaves to set the mood without overwhelming the scene.

October is known for its warm and earthy tones. When planning your newborn session, consider a color palette that reflects the season. Deep oranges, rich browns, muted yellows, or even grey and black, can create a cozy and inviting feel. Sometimes pinks and purples fit right in as well!
