Wake Forest North Raleigh Newborn Photography – Spring

This little one was around a month old the day of his newborn portraits. He was just so content and was both awake and asleep during the session. His big brother was absolutely adorable too, and pretty much snacked the entire session (which is a great part of having a session at home. Older siblings have all their toys and snacks, too!) It was a pretty spring day so we spent a few minutes at the end of the session outside with a pretty spring tree! I am soo happy to see flowers/trees blooming again! yay! (And yay for green leaves on the trees!)

According to Mom..

What was the first thing you thought when you saw your baby for the first time? Brayden was so wide eyed when he came out..he was ready to see the world!I also thought, how is he so small, he felt so much bigger when he was in my belly!

What was your favorite part of our session? I loved that you were able to make my toddler smile and look at the camera. We were all so comfortable with you in the home. The nice part is I didn’t feel like I had to clean it all up.

How did you prepare the baby for our photoshoot? The baby was easy…I just made sure he was fed before the shoot. My toddler was the tough one!

How was your experience having your newborn photographed? Were you nervous or worried before and how did it turn out? I loved it! The pictures turned out absolutely perfect!

What would be your advice to someone having newborn photographs taken? Keep it simple. I liked that we just put him in a white swaddle instead of a bunch of props.Trust the photographer – she captured the baby in all sorts of angles and some with eyes open and some shut, and they all were beautiful.

Did you have a sentimental item at our session? The cradle we used was built by my father and both my brother and I slept in it as babies. It’s been passed to all the grandkids, too.

Do you have any other children, and how did they react to the baby? I have an almost 2 year old boy. He is absolutely in love with his little brother. He likes to help feed him, give him his paci, and give him kisses. He wakes up every morning and comes home from daycare everyday, and the first thing he does is run to the baby to gently rub his head and make sure he is ok. He shows a lot of concern for his little brother’s well being.

How would you describe your perfect Saturday as a family? With the weather getting nice we love to go to play in the yard, go for a walk downtown, go to the fairgrounds, or Pullen Park. With two little ones, we feel accomplished if we can get to one place and enjoy a lunch together before nap time and the complete chaos starts:)

Any advice to any other families picking out wardrobe or preparing for family portraits? I would say pick clothes that compliment each other’s. But most importantly, ask the photographer what kind of settings they want to shoot you in so you can dress appropriately. If you’re not sure about something, pick 2-3 outfits. Since you are at your own house, you can quickly change if needed.
