BABY GRAYSON | RALEIGH NEWBORN BABY INFANT PHOTOGRAPHER

This little guy is baby Grayson who came into the studio for his first photo session at just five days new! He was born at over nine pounds and Mom wanted him in for his session just as early as possible before he got too big to curl up into cute poses. And he cooperated absolutely nicely for me! His photos are just gorgeous! And thank goodness he’s a part of my Baby’s First Year session package, so you’ll be seeing a good bit more of Grayson this year on the blog. I can’t wait!

BABY CHARLOTTE | RALEIGH DURHAM WAKE FOREST NEWBORN BABY PHOTOGRAPHER

Sweet little girl Charlotte came to the studio to see me at 11 days old. I had a great time working with her. She looked adorable in every color I put on her. I love snuggling baby girls and getting out all the pinks and purples! I’ve had quite a streak of baby boys this year, so I was excited to welcome a baby girl into the studio this time. This one was super fun for me! 🙂

ALEXANDRIA | RALEIGH DURHAM WAKE FOREST BABY PHOTOGRAPHER

Every once in a while I can squeeze in a last-minute booking. Alexandria’s mom contacted me saying how upset she was that she didn’t have newborn photos done when Alexandria was born. I happened to have an opening that week and got Alexandria into my studio at 11 weeks old. I knew we wouldn’t have much luck getting her sleeping and posed like a true newborn session, but she cooperated more than expected!! 🙂 She is a sweet little angel, and I’m so glad her Mom has some photos to remember her at this tiny age.

ANNA’S CAKE SMASH | RALEIGH DURHAM WAKE FOREST BABY PHOTOGRAPHER

Little Anna had just turned one when she came to my studio for her cake smash. She was so adorable in her little skirt, and her Mommy brought Anna’s favorite rocking chair to incorporate into the setup. Anna took a little while to get into it, but then she did take some big bites of her cake, much to our delight! 🙂 Here’s a little peek at her cake smash session!

BABY BENJAMIN | RALEIGH DURHAM WAKE FOREST BABY INFANT PHOTOGRAPHER

Little baby Benjamin was another of my 2013 babies, born in December in time for Christmas! He’s the third child for this family, but the first boy, which was very exciting! His parents are great friends of mine, so this session was highly anticipated by all of us. Benjamin didn’t disappoint. He’s a chunky, cute little thing, and I just loved curling him up and photographing all that chub. And I mean that in the best way possible. He is ADORABLE! 🙂

Little guy Eduardo was born to the beautiful Grayce, whose maternity photos you saw on the blog back in November. She had her sweet little boy and brought him into the studio all the way from Fayetteville at just 11 days old! We did a shot with a teeny little Army hat for his Daddy. Loved getting to spend time with this family again!
