DIY Boho Laundry Basket Baby Photo Sesh
About a week ago, my sister and mother convinced me to purchase a baby headwrap bow instead of my typical baby bows – I’m not a huge fan of tiny bows and I don’t like big bows, I like the mid-size with the fabric strap (call me picky).
I admit the headwraps are cute, but they just never called to me while shopping – and you can typically buy 2-3 regular bows for the price of a headwrap in-store. Nevertheless, I bought it.
Return back to today and it’s finally been washed and placed on my baby’s head – the cutest thing I’ve ever seen! Well, we went out to finish the laundry and a few spilled between the dryer and the laundry basket. With nowhere else to sit her (she was on my hip), she ended up chilling in the laundry basket!

Of course, I took advantage of this moment for some adorable shots! I also tried out a new preset – I’ve never had the lighting to make it work – and I absolutely LOVED how it turned out:
Laundry Basket Baby Photoshoot:
This one was really easy based on materials, here’s what you’ll need and what you can use:
- White Laundry Basket (Mine came in a Pack of 4)
- Your baby (or if you’re doing this for someone else, their baby – with consent of course)
- Baby clothes, although I’m curious how it would look with maybe white towels?
- Cute bow, if applicable
- Phone or camera, I used my IPhone 12 Pro Max
The preset I used was purchased from OnePreset and is included in their “Mother” set – the specific one I used is called Dreamy Mother.
Anddddd this is how it turned out:
What do you think? To be fair, this is not one of the only creative baby photos that I’ve done at home. Still, this shoot and my sister’s Half a Dozen 6-Month photos are two of my all-time favorites!
And just to show you a comparison between the preset and the original:
Not a huge fan of how the colors in the bow swapped, but I still like the look! Next time I’ll be trying the vintage preset I purchased 🤗
Also, you can modify how “strong” the preset applies to your photo, so you can go for a softer or more aggressive look.
You can shop the Dreamy Mother Lightroom presets I used here.
