A Beautiful Baby Girl | Durham Newborn Photographer

The amount of CUTENESS and sweetness from this newborn session was off the charts! I had a wonderful time working with Melody and Chris again (remember their gorgeous maternity session at UNC?) and photographing their newest member of the family—baby Ellison! She truly had the cutest yawns and made the sweetest expressions during our session. We also incorporated some of their favorite swaddles in the shoot, and I absolutely loved the modern and elegant design!

I remember when I got to their home, I was SO excited when I saw their bedroom because the morning light filled the room beautifully! We then began the shoot doing individual portraits of just Ellison, and she was incredibly natural in front of the camera. I think one of my favorite moments of her was when she was snuggled between her parents, she had her hand under her chin with the sweetest smile on her face!

Another memorable part of the shoot was towards the end of the session. I always love capturing a few photos of the baby sleeping, and I love the shot where Melody gives Ellison a kiss on the cheek! Her expression was so peaceful and the connection between them was so precious! We also photographed Ellison lying down on top of the lemur quilt that Melody made, and I was so impressed! The quilt was SO well-made and absolutely stunning!

Hope y’all enjoy some of my favorite photos below from this wonderful newborn session! Congrats again, Melody and Chris! :)
