Hudson's Newborn Session

The majority of my client's are first time parents but there is no compliment bigger than when client's return for me to photograph their second (or third or fourth) baby. Let me introduce you to baby Hudson! He was such a dream baby in the studio, equal amounts chunky and sleepy. 

Hudson brought his mom, dad & big brother with him to his session. To say his brother Liam was in love is an understatement. He did such a great job cuddling baby Hudson. I may or may not have bribed him with mini M&Ms but I'm not at liberty to disclose that information.

Often times, the older sibling hasn't had a solo photo since their First Birthday session so I try to sneak in a couple pictures to show how much they've grown!

Baby Hudson's moon prop image is one of my favorites from his session. I just love the colors and his sweet pouty lips. 

Big brother Liam had baseballs in his newborn session so we decided to change it up a little bit for baby Hudson and bring out the football. Let's go Carolina Panthers!!

Thank you so much for bringing in baby Hudson for his newborn session. I can't wait to watch him grown big and strong like Liam!

Alicia's Maternity Session | Peach Blossom Trees

One of my favorite things about living in Charlotte is that we have 4 seasons, even if Winter is feeling extra long this year. I mean, we had snow today! Mother Nature, get it together!! In the meantime, I'm just going to swoon over this maternity session at the Peach Blossoms. 

The Peach Blossoms are only in bloom for a few short weeks each year. I absolutely love to photograph any session there but especially maternity. Alicia braved the fierce winds on this cold March morning and I cannot get enough of these portraits! 

This sweet mama is due with boy number 2 in just a few more short weeks. Alicia says this baby will be their last so she wants to get as many portraits of this time as possible. In fact, keep an eye out because she just may be bringing her hubby and sweet son Myles along for round two soon. 

Alicia, you couldn't get any more beautiful and I hope you enjoy every last second as a family of 3. I just know this new little one will mix things up a little bit. So hug Myles a little longer and just a little harder each and every last night that he is an only child. 

Thanks for trusting me to capture these memories for you. I can't wait to meet your little one!

Maxwell's Newborn Session

Maxwell was a little over two weeks old already by the time he came into our Cornelius studio for his newborn portraits. Luckily, he slept like a champ. 

His mom brought this crocheted outfit that she was given as a gift. It fit Maxwell perfect and I loved the pop of color! 

From the looks of it, I think Maxwell will love to fish!
