I was honored to be chosen as Amber’s Mom and Newborn Baby Photographer Greenville SC. I’ve served the Upstate SC area for nearly 13 years now capturing natural, timeless, and emotional newborn pictures. I don’t use a lot of fussy props because I want to show the simple moments that make up your baby’s story. Interested in working with me?

Anax was the sweetest newborn snoozing happily through his session. He loved being wrapped and cuddled.  Atlas was, like all my two to three year olds: BUSY. I love to play hard with toddlers and preschoolers, but I also work hard to respect their boundaries.  If they aren’t interested in pictures at first, if I ignore them long enough they will want to join back in for my attention. This is how we captured that lovely top left picture of Atlas holding Anax’s tiny hand!

As you can see, most toddlers will resist being posed and instead I aim for those beautiful unscheduled moments unless they’re showing a willingness to be posed. I also recommend that moms share my name, the expectations they have fore how the session will go, and what special reward they’ll receive during (non-messy foods!) and after the session (a trip to the park with daddy or their favorite show)!

Above is a video of all of the images Amber chose from her session. I think it’s so important for mamas to jump into the images. Oftentimes, mamas are the ones recording all of the moments with our little ones. We’re so rarely featured in images. So I always encourage my mamas to jump into images. I remind them that they do not have to choose the images they’re in for their final gallery, but 9 times out of 10 the mama images are chosen. They’re just too precious.
