Winnie, 15 days new | Wilmington NC Newborn Photographer

I’ve always loved the name Winnie, so I was excited to finally photograph a beautiful baby girl with that name! Winnie was such a sweetheart, snoozing through her entire session. Her mama requested blues, greens, and yellows, so it was fun to get to use some colors that can be rarely used for girls. We also included some floral accents in the patterns of wraps and outfits, as well as headbands.

We also did some family photos in Winnie’s beautiful nursery with her parents. I feel like the love is just palpable in these images ❤️

B. Family | Bald Head Island Photographer

There’s not much cuter than three little girls and their baby brother all in matching outfits! The B. family spent a week on Bald Head Island and they took advantage of the gorgeous scenery for family portraits! We used a beach access with several beautiful locations, including being able to see Old Baldy Lighthouse in the background behind the dunes.

All of these kiddos were under six years old, so we had a fun time laughing and playing on the beach. As a mom of four myself, I know we usually have a limited window of time for short attention spans, so I try to get genuine smiles in a laid back environment.

Check out some of my favorites from my time with this sweet family!

Nelle, 10 days new | Wilmington Newborn Photographer

Swaddled newborn sessions, like Nelle’s, are short and sweet featuring adorable wrapped poses. Her mama gave me free reign on colors, so I included some yellow, which is rarely chosen, as well as classic pinks and purples. She snoozed like an angel and we swapped out props and wraps without her even blinking!

C. Family | Holden Beach Family Photographer

The beautiful mother of this family was celebrating her 50th birthday at Holden Beach and her one request was a photo session with her adult children. They were one of the sweetest, most kind families I’ve met and I couldn’t wait to work with them! We had the best weather with gorgeous, golden hour light and we captured shots of everyone together, each couple, plus some fur babies!

Cameron, 13 days new | Wilmington NC Newborn Photographer

As you’ll see below, Cameron was a squish of a newborn (so many rolls and cheeks for days!). He also had amazing hair and slept like an angel. His mom requested lots of blues in regards to props (I looove his bucket shots!).

We also shot some gorgeous family photos in Cameron’s nursery and I could just feel the love 💙 Here are some of my favs from this sweet boy’s session:
