Durham Baby Photographer | Newborn Baby Girl Love

  • Under : Baby, Mini Sessions

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!

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.

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!

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.

And just a reminder to please book your baby photography session early, as Melissa often gets booked up early. She offers a variety of sessions, and we can create beautiful portraits of your baby so you always remember this time in their lives!

Wake Forest Photographer Shares Newborn Session Highlights

This next baby is a beautiful little winter princess who came to me in December for her Wake Forest baby photos. I have sooo many newborns to share here, and I’m hoping I can share more often this year! I loved this session for its lovely neutrals (with just a pop of color here and there). And this sweet baby girl had the most beautiful profile, lips, and lashes, which I loved documenting for her parents. A few little baby smiles just added to the beauty of this Wake Forest newborn photo session!

I hope to meet so many more lovely babies in my Wake Forest newborn photo studio this year! We have lots of memories to capture and beautiful babies to pose and style. 🙂

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!

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!
