Baby Reese | RALEIGH DURHAM WAKE FOREST NEWBORN BABY PHOTOGRAPHER

Cute little Reese was 10 days old for her newborn session. You may remember her parents and their three dogs from their maternity session back in May. I was so excited to meet little Reese. And she was so sweet and perfect for her session, just as I’d expected! Here’s a little peek at her photos! 🙂

Baby Shawn | RALEIGH DURHAM WAKE FOREST NEWBORN BABY PHOTOGRAPHER

What a complete delight it was for me to have baby girl Shawn in my studio! She came in at 17 days old and was such a sweet little girl. Shawn’s beautiful Mommy was on the blog back in May for her maternity session. It was fun to see her again, and to finally meet little Shawn! I was also lucky enough to meet Shawn’s grandma. It’s always a blessing to see so many loved ones adoring a new baby! Shawn, thanks for being so good for me, you’re beautiful! 🙂

The very cute baby Juliana came to me at 13 days old. She was absolutely beautiful! She is lucky enough to have an admiring big sister and a really sweet family. I love all the colors and fun set-ups we did with her!

Wesley and Harrison | RALEIGH DURHAM WAKE FOREST BABY PHOTOGRAPHER

These little twins are six months old! I first met Wesley and Harrison when they were itty bitty newborns, and their cute little selves came back to see me halfway through their first year for some updated portraits of their new talent – sitting up! Fortunately for me, they’re a part of my baby’s first year plan, so I’ll get to see them again when they turn one. These two are soooooo cute and have the best personalities!

Baby Atlas | RALEIGH DURHAM NC NEWBORN BABY PHOTOGRAPHER

I wanted to share a couple photos of six-day-old baby boy Atlas. His Mommy requested no hats, no frills – just simple pictures of her new baby boy. So that’s what we did! Welcome to the world, little Atlas!

Baby Mason | RALEIGH DURHAM NC NEWBORN BABY PHOTOGRAPHER

I hope everyone had a fun fourth of July! We were busy at my house – lots of festivities, swimming, eating, and fireworks! 🙂

Today I wanted to share a beautiful baby boy with you all. Baby Mason was born at the end of May. You may remember his parent’s maternity session on the blog last month. Mason was born with a FULL head of hair — definitely the most hair I’ve ever seen on a newborn. And it’s gorgeous! It was almost a shame to cover it with hats. He was a sweet little man, and there were lots of cute photos for his parents to choose from!

Baby April | RALEIGH DURHAM NC NEWBORN BABY PICTURES

What a busy start to the summer it’s been so far! I’m completely booked up until September, so for those thinking about booking a fall newborn or maternity session, please don’t wait! And for those looking for summer sessions, I can’t fit you in, but I can give you some recommendations! 🙂

I wanted to share some photos of sweet little April, whom I met at just 12 days old. Her Mommy is a local photographer also. I was pretty excited that she asked me to photograph her baby – such an honor! April is just adorable and we got a lot of great images for her Mommy and Daddy to remember her at this tiny age. Here are a few of my favorites!

Baby Evan | RALEIGH DURHAM NC NEWBORN BABY PHOTOGRAPHER

I haven’t had a chance to blog in nearly two weeks – that may be a new record for me. The beginning of summer has brought on a rush of sessions. Add to that my two boys being out of school for the summer and several family trips, and you have ME going a little crazy. 🙂

I’m excited to be able to share sweet baby Evan with you all today. He was so tiny at just five days old for his first photo session. His Daddy is a fireman, so he brought along his gear for a really special photo, which I just loved. He was a perfect little poser too – it was a fabulous session!

Baby Macallen | RALEIGH DURHAM NC NEWBORN BABY PHOTOGRAPHER

This is sweet little Macallen at just seven days new. His Mommy and Daddy met me a few months ago for their maternity portraits – which you’ll have to check out if you missed. Macallen was sooooo cute and tiny. He was a great baby for his session, even cooperating for a few military-themed photos for his parents. I just love him in front of that flag backdrop with his Daddy’s hat!

Baby Landon | RALEIGH DURHAM NEWBORN BABY PHOTOGRAPHER

Little Landon was born into one of the sweetest families. His big sister was part of my Baby’s First Year package last year, and now he’ll be a part of it this year! I’m excited to see him and his big sister, Maylin, grow up over the next year! Baby Landon is a perfect combination of his parents! He made it into my studio at 10 days old and was just as perfect as can be. We had a fabulous session – he was nice and sleepy and he even gave me a few little smiles!
