A Sweet Newborn Session with Baby #3 | Durham Newborn Photographer

It was such a JOY to work with the F family again as they welcomed their third baby! I had the honor of photographing their previous two children when they were babies, so it was extra special to come back and see how much their family has grown :)

I arrived at their Durham home a little early and couldn't resist capturing a few candid photos of the older kids while everyone was getting ready. Their oldest daughter was wearing the sweetest “Big Sister” shirt, which felt especially fitting for the occasion! Once everyone was ready, we started the newborn session outside. We captured some sweet family portraits along with plenty of fun, candid moments with the kids. I especially loved that their daughter wanted a chance to hold her new baby brother, too. Those little interactions between siblings are always some of my favorite moments to capture!

Afterward, we headed inside for some relaxed lifestyle newborn photos around their home. One of my favorite parts was how their baby boy peacefully slept through nearly all of the noise and activity around him. With two older siblings, there was plenty going on, but he was completely unfazed! Then, as soon as the older kids left with Dad to get donuts, he woke up :)

I love in-home newborn sessions because they give families the chance to slow down and capture this season of life right where so many of their everyday memories are being made. And with older siblings, there's always room for a little fun and chaos, too! Scroll down to see more from this beautiful Durham lifestyle newborn session and this sweet family of five!

A 6-Month Milestone Session at Bond Park | Cary Family Photographer

I had a ton of fun capturing E’s 6-month milestone session at the gorgeous Bond Park in Cary, NC! It was extra special to have this family’s au pair join us for the shoot as she will be heading back home in the fall. The kids absolutely LOVE her, and it was so sweet to be able to document a few shots of her and the children! We captured some beautiful shots near the trails by the boathouse, and then made our way to the big field. Baby E had the cutest smiles and was also sitting up, which was super special to capture! We then ended the shoot playing and running around, and the sunset was absolutely stunning. Scroll down to see my favorite moments below!

A Beautiful Adoption | Durham Newborn Photographer

It was such an honor to photograph this beautiful in-home newborn session for this sweet family! I love documenting these precious first weeks, and this session was especially meaningful as they welcomed home their beautiful adopted baby girl. She had the cutest little expressions and loved sticking out her tongue, which I thought was so funny and adorable! :) I also loved including the family's three dogs, who were so gentle and affectionate with their newest family member.

We captured a lot of relaxed, lifestyle newborn photos throughout their home, preserving all the cuddles, joyful smiles, and tender moments that make this season so special. It was truly a privilege to document this exciting new chapter for their family! Scroll down to see more of my favorite moments from this beautiful newborn session!
