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!

Stephanie & John | Wilmington Maternity Photographer

These two were such a delight to work with and I know they’re going to be amazing parents! Stephanie and John came to Wrightsville Beach for a little babymoon. I was honored to capture some maternity photos during their time at the beach. We met at Johnnie Mercer’s Pier on a gorgeous evening during golden hour and they were naturals in front of the camera ❤️

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:
