Baby Boy at Home | Newborn Photography

This newborn baby boy looks right at home, doesn’t he? The perfect addition to this now foursome. I’ve photographed two at-home newborn sessions for this family. Yes, I count my lucky stars. Baby girl Ellington was our first newborn session together in 2014 and now her handsome brother Hampton has arrived. While he is the star of this show, I absolutely love seeing my former newborn clients grow into their roles as toddlers and siblings. Seeing the family – and each personality – evolve over time is one of my favorite things about newborn photography. It’s such a huge honor to be a part of this intimate and important time in their lives. It is no doubt a special invitation and when you get to do it twice, it makes your photographer heart full. Thank you Knight family for blessing me with your trust to capture these fleeting moments. I can’t wait to watch these kids grow and document it all for you.

This newborn session was photographed on location at the family home.

Every mother knows the famous toddler move pictured below. It’s like they are all saying, “what is that thing you have in your arms and put it down please.” Ok, maybe not the please part.

Hello Dad! Let’s have a staring contest.

I love this candid because it reminds us all that siblings prefer baby’s everything … his chair, his blanket.

Welcome to my blog! I’m a child and family photographer based in Charlotte NC.

 

Parents always ask, “what if my kid doesn’t listen?” My answer: that’s actually perfect. Don’t tell your children I said so, but personalities shine when listening ears fail. I welcome the silly. I want the giggles. I watch for honest smiles, real connections and stolen family moments.

 

This applies to your big kids and high school seniors too. Wink, Wink.
