At this point in my life as a newborn photographer I have clients that have spent years with me and are more than just clients; they are friends and I can't wait until I get to see them again for milestones and occasions. This family is one of those and when they told me last fall that they were expecting again I was thrilled that they asked me to capture their baby boy's first images for them!

We did a part lifestyle/part studio session and I'm just so in love with all of the gorgeous images and wonderful emotions we captured during our time together.

Congratulations to mom, dad and big sister - I'm over the moon for you guys and am once again so honored that you invited me into your home to meet your sweet baby boy!

Sometimes when a momma comes in to meet with me I just know she's going to be so fun to work with. This little man's mama was exactly that! She made me laugh and was so down to earth that I couldn't wait to photograph her new baby boy and on top of that her little girl in her first "big sister" role! Talk about a little body with a whole lot of personality!!! These munchkins looked amazing in every image we took and I loved every second of it! 

 

Congratulations to this beautiful family and thank you so much for trusting me with your greatest treasures!


Sweet Ethan | Charlotte NC Newborn Photographer Staci Noel Photography by Staci Noel

I knew when I met this wonderful Charlotte couple for their maternity session that this little boy was going to be so adored and loved beyond measure! They were so excited to meet him and frankly, so was I!

Mom, who is an amazing artist in her own right, was very specific about what she wanted from our newborn session together. Definitely monochromatic and more neutral, soft tones and some textured and natural looking images. Having an absolutely gorgeous newborn model was icing on the cake so to speak:) Ethan gave us a little bit of work but for the second half of his session he slept like a dream and we created some amazing art together.

Here are some of my favorites from his session at my Harrisburg studio.

This little man came into my studio at 26 days earth side, which for photographing newborns can be a whole different set of challenging. Most babies I photograph are within the first two weeks of life simply because that's the easiest time to capture them when they are still very flexible and they spend a majority of their time sleeping. After a few weeks they become a bit more alert, touch sensitive and can be a bit harder to coax into cooperating.

This beautiful momma contacted me and I happened to have a last minute opening so we decided to give it a go even though her sweet boy was outside of that early window. And boy did he make me work and work hard for it! But after several long hours we managed to get an amazing session full of images that mom and dad were so excited about. We even managed a few prop setups to go in his travel themed nursery - since these two are world travelers it was perfect to get Logan all set up with his suitcases and ready to explore:)

Thanks so much for letting me tell your story!
