2024Natasha was referred to me for Timeless Greenville Baby Photos by one of my previous clients. Referrals are the lifeblood of my business, but to be referred by two mom-baby nurses and booked by two more has been just a beautiful gift. These ladies are some of the first to meet your baby in the hospital and to teach you how to care for your infant. Being trusted with the babies of mom-baby nurses leaves me breathless. If you’re interested in booking, click here! Or you can read on to learn about this magical session with Noah.
Noah arrived asleep for his session. He was in his carrier and both Natasha and Chris were worried he may wake up cranky. I, however, was so excited! I asked if I could get Noah out of the car seat asleep and pose him like a newborn. I also asked about his preferred sleep positions and then I just prayed for magic.
Clearly, Noah did not disappoint! He stayed asleep for another 20 minutes letting me pose him however I liked in these Timeless Greenville Baby Photos! Natasha even had time to change into one of my mama wardrobe gowns while he slept. My verdict: Bring me all your asleep 4-6 month-olds! What a gift to have these angelic portraits!
Once Noah woke, he needed a good cuddle from Natasha to ward off the grumpiness. We did family images while he was still getting used to waking up in a brand-new place. I’m pretty sure he even had a little snack before we moved on to awake images. I especially loved this precious moment of Natasha playing with Noah’s little toes.
Noah was also amazing for his awake images. Just look at these beauties!

2024I was really excited when Simone contacted me for a Cake Smash Photos Greenville SC! I’ve photographed all of Simone’s boys at one year old though I think I’ve only managed to blog one which you can see here. This family of boys is one of my favorites. They’re respectful and wild. Silly and responsive. Active and oh so happy! Simone is super laid back and absolutely happy when we capture their real personalities in images. Basically, they’re a photographer’s dream.
If this sounds like your family and your desire for a Cake Smash Photos Greenville SC, then please click here. I would love to run around chasing your wild ones and capture their true personalities on film!
This image of all of the boys together is pretty much spot on for personalities. Aren’t they the best?!
Simone also chooses some of the very best themes for Cake Smash Photos Greenville SC. For Ellison she chose “Here Comes the Son.” Simone appreciates a Boho vibe for sessions so we worked together to come up with a backdrop with her concept art on a Pinterest board. This set was really special to me too because one of my daughters painted the backdrop and the other decorated our cake from Baking Sweet Scents. I contributed the dried florals and this beauty came to life. Making unique backdrops is a sheer creative joy in this family business!
Ellison didn’t disappoint during cake smashing. He even took a nose dive into the cake. Often babies’ reactions to cake are all over the map. Some eat very little, some eat so much cake they go home in a food coma, some are horrified of the texture of the frosting, and others will paint the whole backdrop floor with frosting. I love seeing each unique reaction.
Below is a slideshow of all of the images from Ellison’s Cake Smash. Clients always select their favorite images to include in their digital file package so you really get to see not only the boy’s personality, but also how much Simone values each of her son’s individually.

2023Are you dreaming of Timeless Baby Portraits Greenville SC that aren’t on brightly colored backdrops with a pile of brightly colored props?

Offering sessions from Newborn to 1-Year and beyond, Quiet Graces Photography provides digital file packages and personalized sessions. Click here to tell me about your dream session. Or read on to see and hear more about Ava’s 1-Year session. 
Ava’s Timeless Baby Portraits Greenville SC
Ava is the sweetest bubbliest little one. Obviously attached to her mama and daddy, Ava smiled anytime they interacted with her. This made pictures so easy! This timeless setup on my white bed and curtain wall is used for nearly every session. The cream color is timeless and classic and allows for both comfortable relational portraits with parents as well as a soft surface for your little one’s portraits. It also offers a soft slightly romantic feel.
I love how we captured all of Ava’s special faces including sticking out her tongue in joy! Ava wasn’t walking yet, even though she was one. I’d say 3/4 of my one-year-olds aren’t yet walking, but that doesn’t mean crawlers aren’t fast! I’m always wearing my workout clothes so I can keep up with them moving around. I let my one-year-old clients play and be themselves whether they’re smiling or crying or cuddling mama. All these moments matter equally and eventually we capture the smiling faces!
Ava finished her session with a mile bath with flowers. She loved the bath so much until she took a bite out of the coneflower. She did not like the feeling of the coneflower’s center on her sensitive gums and that resulted in the sweet little crying face in the bottom right corner of the above collage. That image make my mama-heart ache for the day when I could scoop up my littles and solve everything with a cuddle.

2023Meet Ben at his Sailboat Theme Simpsonville SC Baby Cake Smash Photos! This little guy absolutely stole my heart! Looking to book yours? Click here!
While most one year olds have a bit of stranger danger and just gently sample the amazing cake from Baking Sweet Scents included in your Simpsonville SC Baby Cake Smash Photos session, Ben was basically a submarine diving right in. Please pardon the bad pun 😉 There was frosting from one end of the studio to the other. It was all over me and his mom who he had to share with, but somehow very little stuck to Ben!
My favorite part of the session were his bubble bath photos. Ben became obsessed with the ships wheel that I had placed outside the tub, but when he put it inside the tub it was just perfect. Doesn’t Ben look like he’s piloting a ship on the sea in the little tub?
Both a bubble (or milk) bath and the a simple semi-naked cake are included in your cake smash session. I also provide a banner or floral backdrop. Parents are welcome to bring other props or goodies for their session. My daughters and I love helping customize the session to your nursery decor or to a theme that you just love. We’ve done everything from Strawberry Lemonade to a Tea Party to Rookie’s First Year to Wild Things. As always, we keep the sets fairly minimalist to keep the attention on your sweet baby. Click here to see some of my blogged Simpsonville SC Baby Cake Smash Photos for ideas on your own theme!

2022Looking for Holiday Mini Sessions Photography Simpsonville SC? During the Christmas season, I offer Simply Family Mini Sessions on select Saturdays. We keep the backdrops classic cream and some family’s wear holiday themed clothes while others keep it simple to use their family pictures on their walls or as gifts. Sessions are shorts at just under half an hour which is perfect for two and four year old children like A and S! Best of all, clients are able to pick their five favorite images as digital files with options to purchase more or design printed holiday cards. Click here to contact me about current dates.
If printed cards aren’t your family’s thing, I also make these little videos for sharing on social media. They’re such a fun way to share how much everyone has grown, don’t you think?
The G family has been coming to see me since S was barely two. S thinks that a day in the studio is pretty much like going to the playground. I really play with kids. From making elephant and rooster noises to tossing crescent shaped bean bag pillows to racing or playing tag at the studio, I really try to win your kiddo over with play. I’m always a sweaty mess at the end of the session, but it’s completely worth it to capture pictures that truly capture your little one’s personality. When mama W told me how S felt about sessions being so fun, I was delighted to know that she remembers me so well! I want both the parents and the children to have a great experience in the studio!
Mr. A was full force two year old boy at this session so my willingness to chase and play really made a difference as he went from having a great time to refusing to participate multiple times during the session. You wouldn’t guess that from the images, would you? 
So if you’re looking to book your own Holiday Mini Sessions Photography Simpsonville SC and you want classic backgrounds and a photographer who loves to play, I’d love to be considered. Click here to book your date!
