2021I was excited to see Marley again for six month Timeless Studio Baby Photography Greenville SC! If you’d like to see his newborn session, click here. Marley is a NICU graduate and his newborn photos turned out so cute. I can’t believe how much he’s grown up though!
The best part about six month sessions is the variety of facial expressions. Also, from a photographer stand point: they still stay in one place long enough to capture all of those sweeet faces! From pouty, to amazing Black boy joy, to pensive, Marley shared all of his personality! Plus this sweet outfit that his mama brought is sheer perfection. 
I loved this image set with Marley’s Mama Ericka most of all. So often we mamas are ashamed of how motherhood has changed our bodies and reluctant to get into the picture. But our babies just see the mama who loves them more than anything. And honestly, the think we’re the most beautiful creature that they’ve ever laid eyes on. Our love for our sweet babies makes us more beautiful.
Shortly after this last image with Ericka, Marley had an epic spit up incident. These things happen! However, because I have a studio wardrobe for babies, we quickly cleaned up Marley and put him in a new outfit. You can see my studio wardrobe for babies by clicking here. I love providing this perk to clients, not only does it save you money if you choose to use the wardrobe exclusively, but it also helps in the case of accidents like this!
To make sure his tummy was settled we moved onto some floor images. I so enjoy seeing babies grabbing their feet and capturing all these sweet details! Little toes are pretty much the sweetest thing ever, am I right?
Six month olds are still mastering the skill of sitting up so at the end of the session, I offered Marley some respite from all the exercise by placing him in this little bed. I think these images captured the most of his personality!

2021Whether you’re looking for a Simpsonville SC Newborn Baby Photographer or you just need your day brightened, this session with Asher, puppies, Savanna, mama Madi and guest star baby Starlie is sure to make you smile. Asher’s mama Madi is the application manager at Doodles Making a Difference. She delivered precious Asher just a month after owner Christian had delivered Starlie. In a small miracle, a litter of puppies were born at the same time! This sweet image shows the heart and soul of Doodles Making a Difference: a puppy raising family business who puts the wellfare of children at the center of their business model. Each doodle puppy sold will feed a child rescued from slavery in India for 9 months through Set Free Alliance. 
This newborn session was for celebrating Asher. We had already done Starlie’s session which you can see here with her family or here with a litter of golden doodle puppies . Asher was a chuncky baby. I loved his sweet rolls and how he managed to make these puppies look so tiny. The labradoodles are the same age as Asher! 
The puppies were the highlight of the session, but Asher’s portraits alone were just as important. From this little smirk, to his sweet cheeks, to his fun kissy face, we celebrated all the little details in him that reflected the image of God. 
I especially loved these two images in black and white. The shadows highlight his precious features from his button nose to his sweet grumpy brow. I never make my clients choose between color or black & white images. They receive both version in their gallery downloads. 
Asher came with a big sister Savanna who was not yet two but was such a joy to photograph and posed so well! 
Sometimes I can’t get this laying down pose with two year olds who are almost three, but Savanna wanted so much to hold Asher. It was a beautiful start to their sibling life.

2021This special Rainbow Baby Newborn Photography Session Greenville SC with precious Starlie was such a gift to photograph. As you can see below, Starlie made some of the best faces. From pouting to grumpy brows to smiles she had so many expressions.
However, the most amazing part of Starlie’s newborn photo session was seeing just how much her whole family adored her. In fact, these images with her daddy Josh were snapped as he gently took her from her car seat and just admired her beauty. He also showered her with kisses. My heart swelled so much! 
Starlie’s two older brothers, Job and Jonah, were equally as mesmerized by their baby sister. As a photographer it was so fun to have older siblings when I’m used to 2-4 year old siblings. They loved cuddling her and laughed at my jokes about “acting like we like each other” for photos. 
Can’t you just feel the family love here? The joy at their new baby sister and daughter. These are some of my favorite family images I took in the past year. 
Of course, we also took images of Starlie alone. This precious pink set was my favorite of the session. I let my babies lead posing and it was clear that Starlie preferred the comfort of being wrapped. After all, miracle babies are seldom put down!
But also Starlie’s session included a litter of sweet little puppies! Christian, Starlie’s mama, owns Doodles Making a Difference so when one of her family’s dogs delivered a litter of puppies the same week as Starlie, we knew they had to be included! Click here to see Starlie with her puppies.

2021This Newborn Baby Photography with Puppies Greenville SC is the most unique session I’ve ever done!
One of the best parts about being a Newborn Photographer is getting to collaborate with other business owners. So when my friend Christian who owns Doodles Making a Difference booked a session for her rainbow baby Starlie, I immediately asked if there would a litter of puppies due at the time of Starlie’s birth. The only thing cuter than newborn puppy photos like the ones below from the previous sessions I’d photographed for Christian has to be a newborn baby with newborn puppies!
Starlie enjoyed a full session before we added the puppies to the mix which you can see here. So she was busy taking a brief lunch and snuggle break when I started the puppy portion of her session with the gorgeous golden doodles alone.
Not only are Christian and Starlie’s puppies raised in loving homes avoiding the horrors of puppy mills, but these pint sized doodles really do make a difference. The sale of each puppy feeds a child in India rescued from slavery for a full six months. This partnership with Set Free Alliance aids in the healing of the children both physically and spiritually through the gospel of Jesus Christ. It’s a beautiful business model. 
My favorite image from this session is this sweet pouty face that Starlie gave.
However, this smile is a close second!

2021I was delighted to be chosen for Oliver’s Timeless Emotional Greenville SC Newborn Photographer. 
This little guy had a rough start and ended up with a (thankfully) brief NICU stay, but it also meant that many local photographers wouldn’t take Oliver for newborn images as he was just over 14 days. I think that’s silly and I’ll try newborn photos for you at any age. Your session is about capturing your little love’s beauty at any age whether or not they sleep or want to curl up in fancy poses.
Clearly, Oliver did manage to fall asleep after a lot of cuddling, nursing and coaxing, but as you’ll see below his awake images are just as emotional and timeless as these perfectly posed images. He may have been having a growth spurt, but in any case, I always let the newborn lead the session. Oliver (and your baby) are little persons and I want them to feel safe and comfortable at all times.
One of the things I appreciated so much about Oliver’s mom Tiffany and dad Grant is their attitude of gratitude. Like all new parents, they were exhausted. Yet, both of them expressed gratitude for the NICU experience and for the joy of being in the studio for these pictures. Oliver is so loved and that gratitude is a gift his parents will give him. You can see their grateful joy in these photos.
Oliver, may you always know how cherished you are from your tiny toes to your fuzzy hair. Tiffany and Grant, may you, even on the toughest of days, hang onto that practice of simple gratitude knowing that it is the best gift that you can give your boy.
