Newborn photos are special for many families, but these images from Sadie's newborn session are especially treasured. Her grandmother passed away about a year before she was born and Mom wanted to incorporate her into the photos. You'll see an image below where Sadie's grandmother is watching over her. We also used a set of her pearls and sweet angel wings to honor her grandma.
The color palette for Sadie's session includes shades of purple and cream, perfect for such a sweet little lady. We also took family photos in her nursery (which is GORGEOUS!) and you can just feel the love these parents have for their girl.
T. Family | Wrightsville Beach NC Family Photographer
This lovely family contacted me about photos during a weekend trip to the beach. Their adorable little girl, Paige, just turned one and she had a blast exploring the sand and water! We went with a lifestyle approach, which was so much fun. I loved watching Paige discover a new environment- if a toddler splashing in the ocean, attempting to eat sand, or "talking" to the birds doesn't put a smile on your face, I don't know what will! Plus, they were such a gorgeous (and sweet!) family to work with!

Margo, 10 days new | Leland NC Newborn Photographer
Oh my goodness- this baby girl was so adorable!! Margo's squishy cheeks and fluffy hair were just too much! She was also super alert, which makes my job a little harder, but I didn't mind because look at those gorgeous eyes (and eventually, she could no longer resist my sleep magic!). I was a few weeks from my own due date during this session and it's a good thing because she definitely would've given me a big case of baby fever!
Here are some of my favorites- lots of pinks, purples, and florals for this sweet girl!
Lilly Grace 18 Months | Southport NC Child Photographer
Miss Lilly is one of my favorite little girls- she happens to be the daughter of my best friend AND she and my youngest son are less than two months apart in age. Needless to say, she has a special place in my heart and we've spent a lot of time together since she was a tiny baby. Lilly was 18 months at the time of this session and definitely has the personality to show for it! She is such a cutie and almost always smiling.
We ended up at Franklin Square Park in Southport searching for flowers. It was early spring, so still a little chilly, but we did find some beautiful blooms. Here are some of my favorites!
Braylon is ONE! | Leland NC Child Photographer
I've been photographing little Braylon since he was a tiny newborn! I cant believe he's now an adorable toddler. It's so fun watching these babies grow up and getting to know their personalities! We took his photos at a local park and even though the bugs were biting, Braylon was such a good sport. He definitely made me work for it, though, as he is an active little guy! He has a baby sister coming in a few months and I can't wait to meet her and get some sweet sibling shots <3
