Durham newborn photographer
Meet baby “S” – she’s the new girl in our neighborhood and long awaited for. She has 3 older brothers so mom was over the moon excited to welcome her into the world. Her grandparents were also in town to welcome her so we took advantage of that opportunity to get a few photos of them with their new grand-daughter. I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed this session. Shelby was not only beautiful, but such a great sleeper. I’m going to have to steal her again another day for another session just so I can keep playing with her and try out a couple of new set ups.
Baby “O” came to see me last week. She was 19 days new – my oldest newborn. For a while I thought it was going to be another sleepless session, but once she got a little bit of loving from mom she was out like a light. She was such a good little sleeper and poser for me. I was impressed she did so well for being almost three weeks old. I’m so glad mom contacted me and we were able to squeeze her in. It’s so nice to be able to capture these images since these little ones grow and change so fast. Thank you so much mom and GinGin. It was such a pleasure to get to meet both of you and work with your sweet baby girl. I can see how deeply she is loved.
Look at the beautiful baby girl who came to visit me today. Isn’t she just gorgeous. She has the prettiest brown eyes, and boy did she use them. She was making eye contact with me throughout her session. She was more interested in what I was doing and eating, than in sleeping. Something about these March babies – they just don’t want to sleep when they come to visit me. She did give in for about 20 minutes of our 3 hours together and it was just enough time to get some really good shots. Thanks for coming to visit me today mom, dad and grandma. It was nice to meet all of you. Here’s a sneak peek of your baby girl.
Ah sweet baby “S”. He was part of my non-sleeping baby streak the other week. He took the prize that week for not giving in. Not only would he not sleep, but he was upset even when he was awake. We couldn’t even get any family shots. He was just not in the mood for pictures so we decided it’s best to try again. Well I’m glad we did because this time he was in a much more cooperative mood. He didn’t want to be naked, or posed and loved to be snuggled. Hard to take pictures of him if I’m holding him though. Luckily we just worked around it and went for a little bit more of a lifestyle approach just capturing him being him – sweet and adorable. He gave me lots of smiles and eye contact and I so enjoyed getting to see this side of him. While I know we didn’t get to do all the shots mom and I hoped for, I hope she still enjoys what we did get. Such a handsome and strong little guy =) Thank you for being so patient and for coming to see me twice mom and dad. Here’s your long awaited sneak peek.
Finally – a sleeper! My streak of non-sleeping babies is over! Baby “C” came to visit me and slept like a champ. When I say I LOVED his hair, I mean I really loved it. I kept telling mom over and over. It was just so darn cute. I didn’t want to cover it up! We kept the session pretty simple and added a few fun shots in. “C’s” nursery is nautical theme so we incorporated a few of those shots – but I have to save something for mom’s gallery! I really enjoyed this session and felt back in my groove again with my newborns. Hopefully this is the start of a very sleepy baby streak. Thanks for coming to visit me mom and baby “C”. It was so nice to spend some time with you both!
