Raleigh Durham Baby Photographer | Baby Boy Photo Session

Durham Baby Photographer shares highlights of baby boy’s session

I have a sweet baby boy’s photo session to share! He was wiiiide awake with no interest in sleeping when he came to visit… It happens! 🙂 He was also a bit on the older side for a newborn session – at the past three weeks old recommendation. As a newborn photographer, I’m happy to take older babies when my schedule allows, but I always set the expectation that the baby may be wide awake and not interested in going into the squishy, sleepy newborn poses. And this is just fine, as the awake photos are super cute too!

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

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.

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.

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!

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. Newborn sessions are my specialty, and we can create beautiful works of art for you!

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!

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!

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!

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!
