Hi! I’m a newborn, maternity, and family photographer serving the Wilmington, NC area. I specialize in newborn photography and I strive to produce gorgeous, high quality images from the comfort of your own home. As an experienced baby whisperer, I can safely pose your little one while creating precious images, as well as an enjoyable experience for your family.

I also specialize in family beach sessions on Oak Island, Holden Beach, Ocean Isle Beach, Bald Head Island, Wrightsville Beach, and Carolina Beach. If you’re planning a beach vacation, reach out because I’d love to photograph your family!

All sessions include a collection of digital images with a print release. Additional digital images, as well as professional print products, may also be purchased.

Newborn Portraits

The art of newborn portraiture is the heart of Jennifer Knotts Photography. I love the tiniest of clients and all the details that document the first days of each unique baby. From the perfect pouty lip captured within the blink of an eye to the squishy rolls already starting to form, these images will bring to life all that you’ve been imagining for months before their arrival.

These sessions typically take place in your home when baby is between 5-14 days old.

Sitter/Milestone Portraits

These sessions are booked when you want to capture a fleeting stage! Most popular are sitter sessions (6-8 months) and one year portraits (typically booked around 11 months). I also photograph children at any age as they grow older.

Family Portraits

When you need updated family portraits, you want images that speak to your heart and will accurately represent this particular era in your life for years to come. As a mother of four young children, I aim to be flexible and efficient during our session to capture those little moments as they occur, whether that be a tired toddler resting his head on his mama’s shoulder or a silly pre-teen giggling with her sister.
