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!

Rolesville and Wake Forest Photographer | Baby Boy Gavin

This sweet little baby is handsome Gavin! I loved my Wake Forest newborn photo session with him! I used my newest little prop with baby Gavin – the wooden curved bench. I just love how this prop is shining for my last several sessions. I have a feeling this one is going to be a favorite amongst my clients! I like that I can switch up the colors and styling, and it works for both baby boys and girls. Gavin looked SO cute in his little green pants on the bench.

Here are some of my favorite portraits from Gavin’s Raleigh newborn baby photo session. Check out his sweet little smiles that I caught on camera – I absolutely loved those photos!

Chapel Hill Newborn Photographer | Baby Girl Photo Session

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!

Youngsville Baby Photographer | Six Month Photos

I met this family in the fall for a six month / baby’s first year photo session for their youngest boy! They opted for an outdoor portrait session with a Youngsville baby photographer. I adore outdoor photos at this specific park near Raleigh, it’s one of my favorite locations. And we had beautiful fall leaves on the ground the week we were there, which added to the beauty of the park. This handsome little guy was celebrating being a very big six months old! He was just learning how to sit up on his own, so we helped to prop him up in some little buckets and baskets. And he did show off his sitting skills for a quick minute in one of the photos! And cute big brother participated in the shots too. This was such a lovely baby’s first year photo session in Raleigh!

Raleigh Baby’s First Year Photo Session | Baby Charlie

Handsome little Charlie came into my Wake Forest photo studio for his Baby’s First Year photo session! He was just adorable as can be, and SO expressive! He was full of personality, and a little ham! We had so much fun together capturing his first year photos. He was just turning one, and we wanted to capture all of his cuteness at this stage. His mom brought along some of his favorite moose stuffed animals that we used for some photos as well. I absolutely love doing Raleigh baby’s first year photo sessions!

As you’ll see, we decided to do a cake smash as part of Charlie’s first year photo session. I always love doing these and watching babies enjoy their first bites of cake! If you’d like to include some cake smash photos as part of your baby’s photo session, this is super simple! I just ask Moms to bring their own cake (for allergy & liability reasons), and I provide everything else! I have plenty of props like buckets, baskets, stools, backdrops, etc. for in-studio sessions. Or we can meet at a local park and take outdoor photos.

Here is cute baby Charlie for his Raleigh Baby’s first year photo session!

Wake Forest Photographer | Newborn Girl’s Photo Session

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. 🙂

Wake Forest Baby’s First Year Photos | Baby Quinlan

This sweet little babe is Quinlan, and his parents reached out to me in search of Wake Forest Baby’s first year photos. Quinlan was three months old, and they were hoping to capture him and his personality at this age. At three months, they’ve passed out of the newborn, sleepy phase, so instead it’s all about those awake shots showing personality. And Quinlan sure was full of personality! As you can see! His hair was just soooo amazing, and he gave the best facial expressions. His mom and dad brought along some cute little outfits that looked great on him. I just absolutely loved meeting them and taking Quinlan’s baby’s first year photos for them!

Youngsville Newborn Photographer | Baby Genevieve

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!

Millbrook, NC Maternity, Newborn and Baby Photographer

Wake Forest Newborn Photo Studio | Baby Kairav

Wake Forest Newborn Photo Studio

My favorite shots of this sweet little guy, Kairav, were definitely the head in hands pose. This pose is called the “froggy” pose amongst photographers. It shows off baby boy Kairav’s gorgeous head of hair, and his beautiful face. I’d say this newborn pose is definitely my most requested one. Parents are always in awe of their babies going into this pose, but suprisingly they mostly all love it. Babies are so flexible, and were all bundled up in mama’s tummy just a week before their sessions, so these tight little poses make them feel safe and calm. There are so many great poses that I can do in my Wake Forest newborn photo studio.

I really love my job, and feel so blessed to pose these babies in all of the many adorable poses. Each session is a little different and a challenge in different ways. The shots below are just a few of my favorites of newborn baby Kairav’s photo session.

Raleigh Durham Newborn Photographer | Newborn Sophie

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.
