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 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!

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!

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!

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.

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. 🙂

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!

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!

Knightdale Baby Photographer

Gorgeous baby Emma was eleven days old for her first photo session! Her session was a Raleigh newborn mini session, which is roughly 90 minutes of photographing the baby in a few different poses and usually one prop shot. These sessions give us time for a little bit of variety, and can be customized to exactly what you want! If you’re looking for family or sibling photos, you’ll need a Full session, as these minis only give us time to focus on the baby alone. My mini sessions were so popular in 2021, and they’re a super affordable way to capture some photos of your new baby. Reach out soon for your 2022 newborn session with Knightdale baby photographer, as I usually book up a few months in advance!

Happy little Emma showed several smiles during her session, which I loved! Check out that smile and wink she gave me. Oh so cute! Emma’s parents brought in their childhood teddy bears to incorporate into a photo, and I love how special it turned out! I can just imagine her snuggling these bears throughout her childhood. So sweet! She is such a beautiful baby, and I really enjoyed working with her family! Here’s a compilation of some of my favorites from Emma’s Wake Forest Knightdale baby photographer session!
