A Sweet Bundle of Joy | Durham Newborn Photographer

For my first photo shoot of the year, I had the honor of capturing newborn photos for Amanda and Jonathan in their beautiful home! It was such a wonderful way to kick off the new year documenting sweet photos of this growing family :)

Baby Mirabelle was such a delight! She was awake for the first part of the session, and it was adorable seeing how inquisitive and alert she was. It was also sweet seeing her peacefully sleeping in the second half of the shoot! One of my favorite moments was capturing their dog snuggling with all of them on the bed and trying to nuzzle baby M. He was so happy and enthusiastic, and I swear it looked like he was smiling during the shoot—just see below! Another memorable part of the photo shoot was capturing Amanda sitting in the rocking chair that her dad built for her! The craftsmanship was outstanding, and it was truly evident that it was built with love :)

My favorite part of the shoot was simply capturing the love and connection among this family. Whether it was mom kissing her baby or dad nuzzling nose-to-nose with his baby girl, I like to call these touches, “points of connection.” Whether it is head-to-head, nose-to-nose, or hand-to-hand, I wholeheartedly believe these gentle touches truly elevates the depth of love, intimacy, and relationship in a photo!

Enjoy the beautiful lifestyle newborn photos below, and getting to know this sweet family!

Outdoor Family Session at Umstead Park | Raleigh Family Photographer

I had such an awesome time capturing photos for Erin and Jason’s ADORABLE family at Umstead Park! Erin got in touch with me in the fall to do a family photo shoot, and I learned that they were in the middle of moving from New York to Chicago. They were staying with family in NC and desired to capture this special moment in time as they make their transition to Chicago!

One of the most memorable things about this shoot was how much their son, Miles, LOVED to stand and balance on his dad’s hands! His dad would basically hold him up with ONE hand, while Miles would clap and sing a song—it was so cute and funny, especially the photos we captured towards the end! I also thought it was hilarious that his newborn baby brother slept for pretty much the whole photo shoot! Most of all, what I loved about this family was their energy, playfulness, and laughter! It was endearing to see how much fun they have being together :) Documenting your days together is so important because life truly flies by!

Enjoy some of my favorite highlights below and getting to know this lovely family!

The Shah Family | Durham Family Photographer

It was an honor taking photos for the Shah family during the fall season! This family truly had some of the SWEETEST smiles, and the kids had me cracking up so many times during our shoot! We took photos at the American Tobacco Campus in downtown Durham, and I remember the weather was SUPER windy that day. Fortunately, this family persevered and still did an amazing job! The tickling and hugging definitely kept everyone warm :)

One of my favorite moments was capturing photo of the siblings. I usually like to include the kids and ask if they have any ideas for poses or funny photos they want to do. I would say 99% of the time the kids do have an idea, and I end up LOVING their ideas! Why? Because it totally captures their personalities in such an honest and genuine way! The laughter and smiles on their faces are so natural and organic, and that makes it priceless. For these kids, the older two wanted to carry their youngest brother, and thought it would be funny to hold him up in the middle between them. I took that photo and they thought it was hilarious and couldn’t stop laughing!

Enjoy the rest of the photos below and getting to know this lovely family!
