This lifestyle newborn session is a few months old but I never blogged it and I just had to! I had so much fun with sweet Dylan and his parents. It was right after that "snowstorm" that we had early this year so of course we had to grab some outdoor shots!!

I just *loved* this session. The perfectly precious little guy, sweet mom and dad, GORGEOUS home and nursery, and snow! So much fun.  Leo is such a handsome little man!  

Oh this sweet girl. Her 6 month session is coming up and I am just now blogging her 3 month! Ahh! I am so stinking excited to see this face again soon! But let's rewind....approximately 3 months ago I went to her house to shoot some lovely relaxed shots with her mama and daddy in the comfort of their home! Love me some lifestyle sessions! How gorgeous is miss Ella? And how much do you want to kiss those cheeks!?

This session was pure amazing. Sweet little William slept like an angel for me, and what a gorgeous family  - right!??  I don't do as many lifestyle newborn sessions as I do posed studio newborns....but I sure do love them!

This session was so.much.fun. I followed Ronan and Logan and their gorgeous mama around while they played with toys, snuggled, read books and tickled! There may have been a little snacking on foam letters going on too ;] Lifestyle sessions are really tugging at my heart lately...real moments, real smiles, real fun, real love. I love my job.

Oh little Sebastian. I have seen this sweet guy every few months since he was born - and this time I got to meet and photograph his little cousin, Wesley! Wesley was born way too early and has had a long, hard journey but he is the cutest little guy with such a contagious smile and is doing well! His mommy and daddy are just over the moon with him - there was so much love in this room.

Earlier this year, I was contacted by another photographer in Clemmons, NC about shooting her baby girl's newborn session in her home. I don't do lifestyle stuff as often as studio/outdoor sessions so I was super excited for this! Sweet little Addison finally made her arrival in October and I made the trip out there for her session 17 days later! I had a blast with this family, adventuring all through their house to find the perfect spots to photograph them and their girl!

Let me just start off with how much I LOVE first 48 sessions! The lifestyle approach, the squishy newness of the baby, the yummy hospital room light, and capturing the magic of those first few days with a new baby....I just soak it all in! This sweet boy was a little over 24 hours old. I had such a great time capturing Jamison's mommy and daddy and grandparents loving on him...how could you not cuddle that little boy! The first few days with a new baby are overwhelming - getting used to this new little creature and their demands, trying [...]

Okay so I am behind here...this newbie session was in June :] But that doesn't make her any less cute!! I shot this sweet family's maternity session, which you can see here. Little Suzie's newborn session was a ton of fun! She was wonderful for me, and so was big sis!
