Wake Forest Baby’s First Year Photos | Baby Quinlan

This sweet little babe is Quinlan, and his parents reached out to me in search of Wake Forest Baby’s first year photos. Quinlan was three months old, and they were hoping to capture him and his personality at this age. At three months, they’ve passed out of the newborn, sleepy phase, so instead it’s all about those awake shots showing personality. And Quinlan sure was full of personality! As you can see! His hair was just soooo amazing, and he gave the best facial expressions. His mom and dad brought along some cute little outfits that looked great on him. I just absolutely loved meeting them and taking Quinlan’s baby’s first year photos for them!

Youngsville Newborn Photographer | Baby Genevieve

Cutie baby girl Genevieve was 19 days old on the day of her Youngsville newborn photographer session. She was smiley and precious and perfect! Genevieve’s mama asked for jewel tones, so I themed the baby photo session around those colors. We used the heart bowl prop, which is always a favorite amongst families. I love babies in that bowl, it’s such a great symbol of the parent’s love for their new baby.

Don’t forget to reach out for your newborn photo session as early as possible. I have people book sessions as early as 3 months into their pregnancy. My calendar fills up fast, so I can’t guarantee availability if you wait until after the baby is born to reach out. I’m often fully booked by that point. So please reach out early!

Wake Forest Newborn Photo Studio | Baby Kairav

Wake Forest Newborn Photo Studio

My favorite shots of this sweet little guy, Kairav, were definitely the head in hands pose. This pose is called the “froggy” pose amongst photographers. It shows off baby boy Kairav’s gorgeous head of hair, and his beautiful face. I’d say this newborn pose is definitely my most requested one. Parents are always in awe of their babies going into this pose, but suprisingly they mostly all love it. Babies are so flexible, and were all bundled up in mama’s tummy just a week before their sessions, so these tight little poses make them feel safe and calm. There are so many great poses that I can do in my Wake Forest newborn photo studio.

I really love my job, and feel so blessed to pose these babies in all of the many adorable poses. Each session is a little different and a challenge in different ways. The shots below are just a few of my favorites of newborn baby Kairav’s photo session.

Raleigh Durham Newborn Photographer | Newborn Sophie

I had so many baby girls in 2021! They were all gorgeous and sweet and cooperative – which makes for wonderful newborn photo sessions for me! Little Sophie was only seven days old when I met her for her Raleigh Durham newborn photographer session. She came into my newborn studio and made her big modeling debut and rocked it! Mom and Dad participated in some photos too, which I always encourage. They’re only this tiny once, and it goes by so quickly. A family photo is something you’ll always treasure. And someday your baby will be grown and may hang these photos in their own home! These portraits will be passed down to future generations. So I think it’s important to get in the photos and capture the moment!

Here are my favorites from Sophie’s Raleigh newborn photo session.

Wake Forest Baby’s First Year Photographer | Lakelyn 6 Month Session

Today I’m sharing adorable little Lakelyn! I’ve had the pleasure of watching her grow, and I’m enjoying every minute I get to spend with her! I first met her Mommy when she was pregnant with Lakelyn. We did a gorgeous Raleigh maternity photo session. And then a newborn photo session, 3 month session, and now a 6 month session! I’m loving being her Wake Forest baby’s first year photographer.

Lakelyn was just starting to get the hang of sitting up when she came in for her portrait session. We mostly had to put her in baskets to support her. But we did manage to get a cute photo of her sitting unassisted, with her Mommy just outside the frame, ready to catch her if she toppled!

Isn’t this little half birthday hat so very cute? Lakelyn’s mama brought it along, and it matched my pink backdrop perfectly. Sweet little Lakelyn is just so perfect and sweet in her Raleigh baby’s first year photos.

Raleigh Durham Family Photographer | The “W” Family

Are you ready to see a beautiful family photo session?! I’ve been photographing these beautiful people for years and years! I first did their oldest son’s newborn and baby’s first year photos. And then they added another boy to the mix, and I of course did his newborn photo session! And now look how grown up these two sweet boys are?! I’ve loved being this family’s Raleigh Durham family photographer over the years. We did a fall family photo session at a local park in Raleigh. I think their pictures turned out so beautifully! We had gorgeous fall colors, and this couple’s boys are just so loving and fun. I’ve enjoyed getting to know them and seeing them grow! Their bond is tight, and I really feel this is what having a brother is all about. Best friends for life!

If you’d like to get on my mailing list to be informed of upcoming family mini session events, please reach out to let me know! I often hold these in the fall, but occasionally have space for other times of the year too. So don’t hesitate to ask about my availability for a Raleigh Durham family photographer session!

Raleigh Maternity Photo Session | Alexis

Raleigh Maternity Photo Session

Alexis was such a beautiful pregnant mom! I was happy to meet her for a Raleigh maternity photo session. She and her husband are such a stunning couple. They look like they belong on the cover of a magazine. Just too perfect for words!

This maternity photo session was held back in the fall, and the leaves and scenery were colorful and perfect. I’m slowly catching up on blogging my sessions, but it seems I keep falling further and further behind. At least a few fall photo sessions aren’t too bad to look at right now while we’re waiting for the colors of spring to arrive!

Here are beautiful Alexis and some of her Wake Forest pregnancy photos!

Baby’s First Year Photographer | Baby Rylan

Baby’s First Year Photographer

Cute baby Rylan turned nine months old and his parents chose to celebrate it with a baby’s first-year photo session! He and his sweet curls just made my day. I love babies at this age. It seems when they hit about six months old and start sitting up, they have such a happy phase where they’re easily entertained and pleased with just about everything.

If you’re looking for a baby’s first-year photographer, please let me know! The ideal ages for these sessions are 6 months, 9 months, and 12 months. I hold these sessions either indoors (during winter months) or outdoors at local parks in the Raleigh area. I have a lot of great little baskets and buckets that fit this age perfectly and look so cute with the babies.

Here are some photos I loved of handsome baby boy Rylan’s session!

Chapel Hill Baby Photographer | Baby Zoe

Chapel Hill Baby Photographer

This sweet baby girl with a head full of pretty hair is Zoe! We did a newborn mini session for Zoe, and her mom opted for a lot of prop shots. Zoe looked so perfect and adorable in my heart prop! And I loved her posed so sweetly in the baby bed (my most requested prop). She and her parents were so great to work with. I really enjoyed my time with Zoe and love her beautiful newborn portraits!

I’m currently booking for maternity photo sessions, baby’s first year sessions, and both full and mini newborn sessions. Reach out today to get a spot on my calendar!

Durham Photographer | Baby Riven

Durham Photographer

This next baby boy is little Riven! He’s my first ever baby with this name. It’s such a cute and original name! Riven has the most beautifully soft and creamy skin. He has perfect round cheeks and just a great amount of chub! I loved posing him into all of the cute sleepy shots, and I think his prop shots are just so fantastic and adorable too.

I’m currently super busy and booking well into the summer with due dates. So please be sure to reach out early to reserve your space on my calendar. I have a few different newborn session offerings and am happy to chat with you about what works best for you and your family.
