Award Winning Baby Photography Wake Forest | Baby Tadrian

Thank you for visiting the site of Wake Forest’s award winning baby photographer! Today we are sharing a glimpse into a newborn photo session styled specifically for baby boy Tadrian. This little fella came into the newborn photo studio in Wake Forest for his first modeling gig! And he was such a handsome and happy little boy. His parents requested blues and browns, and so Melissa styled his session around their requests. He was relaxed and sleepy, which helped to achieve so many of the cute sleepy newborn poses, as you’ll see below! He nailed the froggy pose, bum-up pose, and a few others, and we also did the precious close-ups of his face, lips and toes. And of course don’t forget prop shots, as we always get a few of those as well! Here are some favorites from Tadrian’s Raleigh newborn photo session!

Cary Best Newborn Photographer | Baby Harper

Baby Harper came into the photo studio for a “Full” newborn session package. This Cary newborn photography package is the *big one*, and includes a full two hours of posing and photographing your baby! This timing allows for a good variety of props and poses, so your baby’s photo session feels well rounded, and packed full of cuteness!

We were all so happy with all of the gorgeous portraits we got with baby girl Harper. Her mom requested some flowers in a setup, and the sweet little bed. We managed to get all of those photos, plus lots more. I think my favorites lately tend to be the close-up shots of baby’s little profile, lips, and lashes. I’m so happy Harper’s mommy came to us for Cary’s best newborn photographer experience!

Wait until you see the very handsome baby Shiloh! He’s a stunning baby that’s so very loved and adored by his mom and dad, and big brother! Shiloh slept so peacefully, and even woke up for a little stretch for a few shots with his eyes open (I love when this happens – it just shows a touch more personality and sweet expressions!).

If you’re looking for a newborn baby photo session, and you’re due this spring or summer, please reach out soon to book your photo session! We offer three different package options, allowing for different price points and variety of photos.

Shiloh’s family purchased the “full” Cary newborn photography sesssion, which is the largest package offering the most variety of props and poses. Below are all of my favorites from Shiloh’s newborn photo session!

Did you know that Melissa Devoe Photography offers newborn “mini” photo sessions in our Wake Forest portrait studio? These mini sessions are for baby photos only (sibling and family photos not included), and offer a great option for those looking to spend a little less, or for those who just want a few setups/poses! These can be great if you’re looking for a couple of photos for birth announcements and holiday cards, or just a few photos to share online. They’re a great newer option that Melissa offers!

This sweet baby boy, Ashay, had a newborn photo session done last month! Ashay’s family lives in Cary, and they chose Melissa as their newborn photographer based on their friend’s rave reviews. Ashay was soooo sweet and perfect. Check out his BIG smile, long and luscious eyelashes, and beautiful head of hair! He was such a sleepy newborn, and allowed Melissa to get a whole lot of sweet traditional newborn poses during the one-hour mini session. This Raleigh photo session was a huge success!!! Soooo cute!

Gorgeous baby girl Emma is up next to share today from Cary baby photographer! Emma was such a pleasure to work with, and I loved my time with her. She was a beautiful baby girl, with perfect lovely long lashes, and so smiley. I was excited about the number of smiles that I caught with her. I love those little baby smiles! And Emma had a beautiful and unique birthmark in the shape of a heart on her cheek. Her mom wanted it to be noticeable in the pics too – I can see why. It makes her one of a kind! She was so sleepy and great to pose too. Just all around a wonderful Cary photo session!
