Newborn photographer in Raleigh, NC

Wasn't her toddler just a baby swaddled in her arms? She desperately clings to every preschool play, every soccer game, every last first of motherhood. Will today be the day her oldest child stops kissing her goodbye? 

She stares at the portraits on her walls of her babies as newborns. Trying to remember the way their hair smelled, the weight of them falling asleep on her chest. She flips through her albums and counts the baby toes all over again and remembers the way her toddler’s small hand felt while holding hers. 

She grasps at the memories.

She wants to press pause. 

What if you could press pause?

• Timeless dresses for mom

• Hair & makeup facilitation to pamper you

• A guided yet relaxed session where you get to play and snuggle your children

• Heirlooms created with your family vision in mind so you can always reminisce over this stage of life

What if your memories could be preserved in a way that freezes time...and you got to be fully present in those memories?

If you're anything like me,
you want:

Your kids to feel Special.
 


Your Raleigh newborn photography session will be a time to connect with your baby and older siblings on a special level. You're creating memories while I'm documenting them for you.

To feel more Rested.

To be in the Photos.

My husband doesn't take photos of me with the kids either (unless I remind him to). As a Raleigh Newborn Photographer, I will focus on you being part of the family unit you put so much love and care into raising. Then we'll create art with your images because your kids deserve to have you in the photos.

More about The Experience

Trust me, I wish I could give you a full night's sleep. It's all I want too! But I can make you look more rested by providing your wardrobe  facilitating hair & makeup services for your session so you look and feel your best for your Raleigh newborn photography session!

TELL ME ABOUT Family Heirlooms!

"In the home, photos are more than decor: they're visual love letters that communicate a child's importance & their family's history."
-Anonymous

In 20 years, how do you want to enjoy your photos?

When light allows, I photograph with a film camera.
Like old school, send off to a lab and develop...film.

Why?

Simple answer: film allows me to be the best artist I can be.

Film gives a sense of nostalgia like nothing else.  It allows me to create the type of art for my newborn and Raleigh family photographer clients that makes my heart creative happy, which in turn makes me more creative for you! Film images have feeling and movement, like life just jumps off the photo. Almost as if you can feel the moment happening. 

It's the best medium I've found to deliver true to life, frozen in time moments, while retaining true colors and light as a family, maternity and newborn photographer in Raleigh.  It's a slower, more intentional process. This allows me as an artist to slow down and connect with my families. Letting the moment unfold organically, and wait for that perfect moment to click the shutter.
