Durham Baby Photographer | Newborn Baby Girl Love

Today we’re sharing another newborn “mini” photo session in Melissa’s Wake Forest photo studio. This cute baby girl is named Love! Such a unique and fitting name for her, as she is so very loved by her sweet parents! She was a precious little angel for her Raleigh newborn photo session. She looked so beautiful in all the pinks, purples, and creams!

This baby girl’s mama followed all of Melissa’s tips to get baby Love sleepy before her photo session, and she also came with a belly full of milk. So baby Love slept peacefully while Melissa worked through a lot of different props and sleepy poses. We managed to get so much variety in this one-hour mini portrait session! She looked adorable in the bucket, the wooden bowl, and in the little nakey poses on the blanket! There were sooo many beautiful Durham baby portraits… here are just a few so you can get a peek at our amazing variety!

Say hello to sweet baby girl, Charlotte! She came in for snuggles and baby portraits last month, and was such a sweetheart and fun to work with! Charlotte’s mommy reached out to Melissa last minute after Charlotte was already born. And quite often Melissa can squeeze these requests in – so please never hesitate to reach out for your newborn’s Raleigh baby photography session! We’re so glad we got to work with baby Charlotte!

We loved meeting this sweet family who came to the newborn photo studio from the town of Wendell, NC! We have families drive from all over to take advantage of Melissa’s beautiful posing skills. You only get this opportunity once… to have your baby so tiny and sleepy! We made sure to get all of the best photos for this sweet family – family photos, sibling photos, macro (detailed, close-up) portraits, naked sleepy poses, and prop shots. And all of the cute headbands, hats, wraps, and pretty accessories for baby Charlotte!

Here’s a little peek into Charlotte’s newborn photography session in Melissa’s Wake Forest baby photo studio!

We have officially reached fall, which is always a busy time for Melissa’s photo studio! Lots of requests for dark, rich colors, and of course the requests for holiday and Christmas setups have started too. It’s the best time of the year!

Today we are sharing a few lovely photos of precious baby boy Logan. He came into the studio recently at an itty bitty two weeks old. His parents requested lots of green, so we understood the assignment! 🙂 We dug into our huge newborn prop stash, and decided on using the little bed with a green outfit, and then also one of our most loved crates that fits babies so well! And of course, we would never forget the naked sleepy poses (our favorite), and the close-up shots of all of baby’s precious little details.

We can’t wait to welcome all of fall and winter’s newborn babies into our Wake Forest / Raleigh photo studio for their first portraits!

This little cutie was such a delight to have in my photo studio! We did so much amazing variety for her Wake Forest baby portrait session! I was honored to be her Chapel Hill Newborn Photographer.

Pink, purple and cream – all so girly and beautiful on this baby girl. She was a ball of chub, which I looooove on a newborn. The big cheeks and rolls are to die for! I was so thrilled with her photo gallery, and all of the variety. The baby face close-up shots were my favorites, as well as the photos of her in the purple, which I thought was beautiful on her. Her sweet little lips and nose and all the details – love all of the photos! Her mom and dad had a huge amount of variety. Here is just a sampling of the photos I liked best!

This family came to me last month in need of a newborn photographer for their new bundle of joy! This little guy preferred being wrapped up tight, which is how babies feel safe and secure. So I stuck with a lot of wrapped photos to keep him happy and peaceful, which did the trick! I always try for a mix of both, and this little guy was mostly only happy wrapped up – it happens!

But I did pull off a few of the naked poses at the very beginning before he started to get upset. His mom had asked for some green, as well as some blue. And she wanted a shot with the teddy bear, which turned out SO cute! The photos of babies snuggled with teddy bears are always among my favorites. The other favorite of mine is all the detail shots – the toes, the lips, the ears! Just absolutely precious, tiny little details, and I love capturing this for parents as their newborn photographer in Wake Forest.

This is handsome baby Jose! He came in to see me for his Wake Forest infant photography session. He is just as perfect as can be. His hair was out of this world amazing. And his lashes! And perfect skin! And sweet, chill personality! His mama was stunning too. She wanted to get in some photos, and we got a great amount of variety for her. I loved all of the sweet poses we did with her and Jose – I know he’ll treasure these portraits with her someday. This was such a fun Wake Forest photo session!

I hope everyone’s new year is off to a good start! I’ve been swamped with adorable babies in the photo studio, and feeling very blessed. Today I want to share newborn baby boy Elliott. His session was so much fun! So many cute poses and he slept great. I loved all the little props and poses I did with him. The cute little tiny hats and the wraps. Everything looked amazing on him! I adored working with this family, and I’m so glad they came to me as their Durham baby photographer. It was such a pleasure!

Newborn baby girl Ellie came to see me in my Wake Forest photo studio back in November. Just look at what a stunning baby she is! The most scrumptious cheeks and soft skin, and the chub is just perfection! 🙂 I’m so happy that her Mommy and Daddy chose me as their Durham newborn photographer. We got so many perfect little poses with Ellie. I had to narrow down my favorites to just a few, and here they are! I mean… that smile photo!! Just so amazing!

This little sweetie is baby girl Beatrice! She was so precious and perfect, and I was delighted to be her parent’s chosen newborn photographer in Wake Forest, NC. Beatrice had the creamiest skin and was beautiful in every shot. Her parents requested some dark green, so I was happy to have a few wraps and headbands that would fit that request perfectly. I have soooo many props for parents to choose from – hats and headbands, wraps, blankets, buckets, baskets, etc. The newborn prop collection has just grown and grown over the years, and I have something for every session!

Here are a few favorites from Beatrice’s newborn photo session in the Raleigh / Wake Forest area.

Introducing handsome baby boy Nolan! His Mom and Dad chose Raleigh’s best baby photographer to capture Nolan’s first portraits, and they turned out just so lovely! Little Nolan was just such a tiny little peanut for his portraits. His Mom requested a bed shot, and some blues and greys, so Melissa made it happen. It’s hard to narrow down just a small sampling of photos for blog posts, but here are the favorites of little Nolan.
