This sweet, little boy was bright-eyed and wide awake for the first half of his newborn session! Eventually, however, I worked my magic and we finally got some sleepy photos of River. There’s just something so beautiful about newborns and eye contact 😍 Sometimes parents wonder what happens if their baby doesn’t want to sleep. Well, we usually get precious awake photos and then they give in to the swaddling, warm room, and white noise 😴
Stella, 9 days new | Wilmington Newborn Photography
Stella was an absolutely gorgeous, little nugget. She had the sweetest cheeks and the most kind parents! Because she was born near the holidays, we had some festive set-ups planned, as well as muted tones, neutrals, and pinks. We even incorporated a handmade blanket in a few photos (I always enjoy using anything special or personalized in newborn sessions!).
Here are some of my favorites from Stella’s session:
Reid, 14 days new | Wilmington NC Newborn Photography
Reid was the cutest little nugget with super sweet parents! His mama requested neutrals and greens for his posed portraits, as well as some family shots (their house was bright and airy, so we got some gorgeous family photos in mom and dad’s bedroom). Reid decided to be awake for a portion of his session, so we were able to capture some wide-eyed shots and adorable facial expressions, which are always some of my favorites. Also, grandma was visiting from out of town, so she got in a few photos 💚 I always encourage anyone who wants a photo with baby to be included. These days are fleeting, but they are so special!
Hazen, 12 days new | Newborn Photographer Wilmington NC
Little Hazen was the sweetest boy! His parents chose a Classic Newborn Session, which includes both posed and unposed images, as well as family shots. We got some beautiful solo photos of baby Hazen, curled up like he was on the inside. He slept through almost all of his session, only waking up to drink a little milk. I adored Hazen and our time together. Here are some of my favorite images:
Nico, 14 days new | Wilmington Newborn Photographer
I absolutely adore this sweet family! I met them when I photographed big sister Viviana a few years ago for her newborn session (check out her newborn session here). Little brother Nico was such a squishy, perfect angel. We got some posed shots of him alone, as well as beautiful family photos in the nursery 🥰 Getting to know families and watching them grow is such an amazing part of this job!
