River, 11 days new | Newborn Photography Wilmington NC

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 😴

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!

Matthew, 13 days new | Wilmington Newborn Photographer

This tiny nugget is family (a cousin’s baby) and just the sweetest little boy. I was so excited to meet Matthew and catch up with his parents. We got lots of shots of him all snuggled up and posed, as well as family lifestyle photos in the nursery. Getting to photograph these new babies in the first few weeks of their lives is such an honor and one I don’t take for granted 💙

Baby T. | Wilmington Newborn Photographer

This tiny cutie was absolutely perfect, with his blonde hair and squishy cheeks! His parents chose a Swaddled Newborn Session, so I got to snuggle and wrap him while he snoozed through every set. We used lots of blues and greens to style his session as well as tiny props, such as a mini teddy and felted heart.

Here are some of my favorites of this handsome little guy:
