Knightdale Newborn Photographer | Baby Girl Photography

I have a beautiful baby girl’s Knightdale Newborn Photographer session that I want to feature today! This sweet family requested purples and greens for their photo session. I’ve noticed an increase in requests for the color purple lately. I have to say I absolutely love the color purple on baby girls, and I get happy when I get requests for it. I usually always end up using more pink with baby girls, which is pretty too. But I do love some variety!

I’m always happy to use a lot of color in newborn photo sessions. We can coordinate setups to match the colors of the rooms in your home where you plan to display your art. For example, if you plan to hang the newborn portraits in baby’s nursery, we can use pops of color that match the colors of the nursery. Or a living room, entry way, etc.

Prior to every Raleigh Knightdale newborn photography session, I always ask your color preferences. Neutrals always look amazing. But so do colors! So feel free to give that some thought prior to your newborn photo session.

Please feel free to contact Melissa if you’re in the Knightdale / Wake Forest / Youngsville areas and expecting a new baby! Melissa would be happy to welcome you into her comfortable, relaxing newborn photo studio! She’s an expert in baby posing, and can provide a stress-free, relaxing experience for parents and babies. Come check out her huge prop supply and gorgeous Wake Forest baby photo studio! The possibilities are endless with her huge collection of hats, headbands, wraps, blankets, buckets, baskets, etc.

Raleigh Newborn Baby Photographer | Baby Luke

Did you know that the best time to book your Raleigh newborn baby photo session is two to three months prior to your due date? This is to ensure that you receive a slot in our busy calendar! A lot of expecting moms put this on their to-do list while pregnant and research their photographer ahead of time. Sometimes people are even booking their newborn photo sessions 5-6 months prior to their due date! So please don’t delay, as it’s never too soon to reach out and get this item crossed off your list.

Now, if you’re busy and not a plan-ahead type of person, we totally understand this! There’s a lot to think of while you’re expecting, and maybe booking a Raleigh newborn baby photographer isn’t high on the priority list. Please don’t fret if you’ve waited until after the baby is born. Due dates can be very unpredictable, and it’s not unusual for there to be weeks that are slower than others. So we can often fit in last-minute requests! So definitely reach out, and we will do our best to make the newborn photo session of your dreams happen! 🙂

Without further adieu, here is a look at a recent newborn baby photography session in Raleigh Durham. This handsome little guy is baby Luke! Such a sweetheart, and a dream to pose. Look how amazing he looked in every single setup and newborn prop!

Durham Newborn Photographers | Baby Ashton

Today I want you all to see this precious baby boy, Ashton! We captured so many amazing Durham newborn photographer portraits in the studio! Ashton had the best lips and cheeks! And his sweet little fuzzy hair was precious too! My absolute favorites from Ashton’s Raleigh baby photo session were those close-up photos of his sweet little profile, and of his toes and lips too. I always do these close-up photos with my macro lens to capture the best details, and they’re part of my process for each and every newborn photo session. They always end up being some of the parent’s favorite photos, and mine too! Check out my favorites below from Ashton’s debut portrait session!

Apex Newborn Photography | Baby Reese

Today I’m popping on to share some of the beautiful portraits from Reese’s Apex newborn photography session. She is such a cute baby, with the softest best skin, and a cute little button nose! Everything we did looked so good on her! I especially loved the sibling portraits we did – the one of big brother giving baby Reese a kiss was my favorite of all of them.

Here’s a peek at sweet Reese’s Apex newborn photography session:

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!).

Newborn Photographer in Raleigh | Baby Girl Preemie

This next tiny little peanut came to see me in January for her Raleigh newborn photographer session. She was soooo itty bitty – most of my headbands and hats had to be adjusted for her tiny head. We did newborn photos of her with her big brother and sister, and they each wanted turns holding her. I think this baby girl is going to be very loved on as she grows older. Her older siblings were so adoring of her! I loved her family photos, as well as her detailed close-up photos of her sweet toes, lips, and lashes. This baby girl is absolute perfection – as you’ll see below!

Oh what a sweet one I have to share with you today! I was so happy to be chosen as this sweet family’s Durham baby photographer. Little baby Josephine was such a darling. So beautiful, and an excellent sleeper!

We managed to work through several family photos, as well as lots of cute sleepy blanket poses, and some adorable baby props as well! Just look how precious she looked in everything – both pops of colors and some neutrals too. Everything looked so great on baby Josphine. Her newborn baby photo session was a total success!

I have such a cutie to show you all today! This handsome baby boy is Oliver, and he came into the Wake Forest baby photo studio for a mini session! The mini sessions are one hour of shooting time, and allow us to get a small sampling of poses and prop photos, all at a discounted price.

Little Oliver had the cutest cheeks and amazing eyelashes. He was joined by both his grandma and his mom at the photo session. Oliver’s grandma purchased the photo session as a gift – hint, hint these newborn photo sessions make amazing baby shower gifts! 🙂

Newborn Photographer Chapel Hill | Baby Girl Laney

Today I want to share some of the beautiful newborn portraits from baby girl Laney’s photo session, and I’m also going to cover some helpful items you’ll need to bring to your baby’s newborn photo session.

Baby Laney was so adorable and perfect for her Chapel Hill newborn photo session. Wait until you see her beautiful eyelashes, and stunning skin! Her mama requested jewel tones like ruby red. I love getting to use these gorgeous colors for newborn photos! They were such a nice complement to Laney’s skin tones. I just love the variety of props and poses that I was able to achieve for baby Laney’s portraits!

For those planning their baby’s newborn photography session, there are a few things that are so essential in helping this run smoothly. First, I always request parents bring along a pacifier, even if their baby hasn’t used one yet. Babies have a natural sucking reflex, and it helps to soothe and relax them. It’s SO important in soothing babies into those cute little poses! And second, a way to feed baby is necessary while you’re in the newborn photo studio. For those moms who aren’t nursing, please bring along a bottle. Often we do have to pause partway through a photo session for baby to feed, since they eat so often!

Other than these items, I have everything else we’ll need! I always keep a full supply of diapers, wipes, burp cloths, snacks for hungry moms… it’s all provided! 🙂

Here is sweet little Laney from her Raleigh – Chapel Hill newborn baby photography session!

Wake Forest Newborn Photographer | Baby Girl Madelyn

I met baby Madelyn right before Christmas, and loved our Wake Forest newborn photo session together. We got some adorable photos of her with Mom and Dad, and some precious prop shots (see the one of her snuggling the little bear!), several sweet sleepy poses on the blankets, and some detail shots of her perfect little face, eyelashes, and toes.

Madelyn’s family opted for my “keepsake” newborn photo session option, which is an hour and a half of posing and photographing the baby in my Wake Forest baby photo studio. This session allows us time for a few family photos, with focus still on the baby’s photos. In the keepsake sessions, I also aim for a couple of different baby props, and some of the snuggly little sleeping poses on the blanket. I always switch out hats and headbands, and get lots of angles in each pose as well. So this gives us some variety and covers the main bases that most people want. For the most variety, I recommend the “full” newborn photo session option, which is two hours of time together, and we can get a lot more photos with just a little extra time added on.

Here’s a peek at some of my favorites from Madelyn’s Wake Forest newborn photo session!
