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!

Melissa specializes in maternity, newborn and baby’s first year photography for the Raleigh Durham Wake Forest Youngsville areas. She does, however, also enjoy photographing families in the fall! If you’re looking for a family photographer, please reach out and Melissa will check her availability to see if she can fit you in.

Melissa is an award winning Raleigh Durham photographer with 12 years experience behind the lens.

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!

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.

Raleigh Newborn Photo Studio | Baby Callie

Raleigh Newborn Photo Studio

My Raleigh newborn photo studio has been overflowing with babies lately! So many adorable little munchkins are being born! This little sweetheart is baby Callie and she was fifteen days old for her big photo session. She was absolutely precious in all of the colors I picked out for her, and that gorgeous head of hair was so swoon-worthy. She wore an adorable little outfit for several poses and it looked so great on her! The itty bitty little baby outfits are always my favorite. I absolutely loved her macro shots, too – these are the close-up shots of her little face, eyelashes, and toes. I find these photos to be so stunning and I love capturing all the little baby details. I also really adored baby Callie in the teal color. This is a color that her Mom requested, and it looked so beautiful against her skin tone.

Here are all of my favorites from Callie’s newborn photo session!

Knightdale Baby Photographer | Baby Emma

Knightdale Baby Photographer

Gorgeous baby Emma was eleven days old for her first photo session! Her session was a Raleigh newborn mini session, which is roughly 90 minutes of photographing the baby in a few different poses and usually one prop shot. These sessions give us time for a little bit of variety, and can be customized to exactly what you want! If you’re looking for family or sibling photos, you’ll need a Full session, as these minis only give us time to focus on the baby alone. My mini sessions were so popular in 2021, and they’re a super affordable way to capture some photos of your new baby. Reach out soon for your 2022 newborn session with Knightdale baby photographer, as I usually book up a few months in advance!

Happy little Emma showed several smiles during her session, which I loved! Check out that smile and wink she gave me. Oh so cute! Emma’s parents brought in their childhood teddy bears to incorporate into a photo, and I love how special it turned out! I can just imagine her snuggling these bears throughout her childhood. So sweet! She is such a beautiful baby, and I really enjoyed working with her family! Here’s a compilation of some of my favorites from Emma’s Wake Forest Knightdale baby photographer session!

Youngsville Newborn Photographer | Baby Bentley

Youngsville Newborn Photographer

I’d like to introduce you all to the very beautiful baby girl Bentley! Isn’t she such a stunning baby? I was thrilled her mom and dad selected me to be her newborn photographer! It really thrills me to meet these sweet little babies during their first few weeks of life. Each baby is so different and perfect in its own ways. And little Bentley had the most beautiful, creamy skin, and she was very chill and relaxed for me. Her parents opted for my Full Newborn Session package, and we included family photos for them. They’re such a beautiful family of three, and I was so happy to capture their first family portrait!

Here are all of my many favorites of perfect baby Bentley!

Raleigh Newborn Photography | Baby Kaius

Raleigh Newborn Photography

This next little guy is the very adorable baby Kauis, who had his Raleigh newborn photography session done when he was 17 days young! Kaius was an absolute angel for his session. Super sleepy, and posed so perfectly for me! The very first setup I did with him was of him in the bucket, and it was my favorite of the session. He was sound asleep when he arrived and it worked perfectly. He looked so good in the blues and creams that I put him in… I mean, I’m just dying over this cuteness! He was perfect – from that glorious head of hair to his perfect teeny little toes. This session was probably one of my favorites of all of 2021. He was so amazing!

And because I’ve had a lot of questions lately about COVID precautions, I’d love to fill you in on what I do in my studio to keep babies and their families safe from COVID. I’m fully vaccinated and boosted and take the health of my tiny clients seriously. In between each session, my studio gets fully sanitized. My props are disinfected, my camera and work area are cleaned, as is the seating area where parents hang out during sessions. The first thing I do before touching a baby is to sanitize my hands, and I do it frequently throughout each session. I also wear a mask to protect my tiny clients from germs. If you have further questions about COVID safety, please feel free to reach out!

Here’s a peek at baby Kauis’ newborn portrait session!

Wake Forest Baby Photo Studio | Baby Oliver

Wake Forest Baby Photo Studio

I got to meet handsome little Oliver in my Wake Forest baby photo studio back in October. He came in for his newborn mini session when he was just eight days old. He was a precious little peanut! His mom and dad came loaded with prop ideas for things they were passionate about. We did a cute little Harry Potter setup for Oliver. And we also worked in a baseball and some little baseball bats with baby Oliver as well. There was a lot of cuteness happening! 🙂 Baby Oliver gave a lot of precious smiles too! They just kept coming, and I captured so many for his mom and dad. He was just the perfect little model! Check out my favorites from Oliver’s Raleigh newborn photo session!
