More of Mine | Raleigh Durham Baby Photography

Every once in a while I have to make time for some photos of my own children.  Admittedly, it can be hard to fit in, but photos are memories and they’re SO very important to me.  My kids are growing up too fast – and this is my way of freezing time so I never forget them at this age!

Here are some photos of my two little men at a favorite Raleigh garden.

Tyson | Raleigh Durham Baby Photography

Tyson’s sweet parents came to me to document this great age – THREE MONTHS!  He is such an adorable, easygoing little guy… and quite well dressed!  His head of hair is just stunning and he’s full of great expressions.  I truly enjoyed this session and meeting this amazing family!

I was SO incredibly excited when Tyson decide to roll over for the FIRST TIME EVER during our session. I’d say he’s quite a smart baby to wait and do this in front of a photographer!!  Here it is:

Palmer | Raleigh Durham Baby Photographer

I had the absolute pleasure of getting together with Palmer recently at his gorgeous home for his 10-month portraits.  He is such a happy little man, and OH, that hair!!  I just wanted to keep running my fingers through it!  We had a blast playing with his dog (Doug), playing the drums, reading books, and just having fun together. Here are some of my favorites of cute little Palmer!

Baby Natalie and A New Look | RALEIGH DURHAM NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER

These past few weeks I’ve been working with a very talented designer (Megan of Kaylee Bug Designs) to transform my “look” here.  And we’ve really succeeded!  I’m so excited about the new logo she created for me and the way she’s re-vamped my branding.  I think this new look is more “me” and I couldn’t be happier!  Hope you all like it as much as I do!

And you know I can’t post without photos.  This is the sweet Miss Natalie at 13 days old.  Very girly and cute!!  She was one of the babies I met back in the fall at the Keri Meyers workshop – I’m clearly very behind in posting the images! 🙂

Lydia | RALEIGH DURHAM BABY PHOTOGRAPHER

I met up with cute little Lydia for her 9-month session at her home a few weeks ago!  She was such a perfect little angel – smiley and happy.  I love 9-month olds, they’re so easygoing and fun!  I’m so glad we could capture Lydia at this precious age!

Baby Gia | RALEIGH DURHAM NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER

Gia was just eight days old when she and her lovely parents came to me for their session.  She’s absolutely beautiful and I just LOVE her name.  She is an extremely sweet little baby and I’m so glad I got to capture her at this age!  I had so many favorites from this session, it was hard to narrow them down — a good problem to have, I know!

 

My Very Own | RALEIGH DURHAM NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER

From time to time  I like to share some photos of my own children on this blog.  I love them more than life itself, and they sure keep my life interesting!  I took them out recently for a little photo shoot at a local park – it had been too long since I’d gotten photos of them.  My oldest, Dylan, is getting better at cooperating for photos.  Unfortunately my two-year-old, Chase, is getting worse!  It takes some bribery for him to cooperate!

 

In these next two photos, we were at a park with a closed road – it worked out perfect for these shots!

Tyler & Taylor | Raleigh Durham Child Photographer

A few weekends ago I had the pleasure of meeting high school seniors Taylor and Tyler on Tybee Island in Georgia.  I was in town with some girlfriends for our annual photography get-together.  Taylor and Tyler were kind enough to come model for us.  I don’t typically shoot high school seniors, but these two were a blast and it was a special treat for me.  We had some fun – and Tyler’s custom made belt buckle stole the show!
