Welcome to the World, Baby Kennedy!

Y’all. I can’t EVEN with this session. I just CAN’T. Obsessed with this sweet gallery is an understatement. Gahhh! Can’t wait for you to see! This mommy found me on Google and reached out waaaaay back in November. Since we had just moved to the Charlotte, NC area in October (from WI), I was all too excited to meet this sweet couple and plan their sessions. Mom hired me for their pregnancy announcement photos and then also opted for the Premium Package for the newborn session. And I’m OH SO HAPPY THEY DID!

Just look at how BEAUTIFUL this little babe is! She was so peaceful during her session. We barely had to break for feeding or changing. She was just so CHILL and wonderful. Of course I like to think I had something to do with it (but I definitely can’t take all the credit of her peaceful demeanor). When parents book KatieRie Photography for newborn shoots, I advise that they send me a text or email right when baby is born (from the hospital!) so we can set the date for the session ASAP. I love getting newborns into the studio within the first ten days of life. This is when they are super sleepy and I can transition them form pose to pose with ease. Of COURSE if someone has an older newborn, I can still work my baby-whispering magic too. Once parents reach out after baby is born I send my Studio Guide for parents to prepare for their session. Just look at the works of art that will decorate this family’s home!

Welcome to the World, Baby Leo!

This sweet little nugget came to the studio with her doting parents. I am a volunteer photographer at Elevation Church (Gaston campus–WOOT!), where mommy and daddy work. It was just a perfect opportunity to be able to capture this sweet family (who also has midwestern roots–like me!). And just look at the amazing newborn photos we were able to photograph!

We chose a simple and clean palette for Baby Leo’s session, making the focus clearly on her and her beauty. The studio is well equipped with layers, headbands, outfits, wraps, props and backdrops–so all you need to do is just show up for your session! I also remind parents to contact me as soon as baby is born—like directly from the hospital–so we can schedule the date of your session and we can get your little nugget in the studio in a timely manner (the first ten days of life are ideal, but I have had success with a little older newborns as well). Once parents contact me, I send out the Studio Guide for parents to follow. I always say it’s a guideline and the babies will always call the shots, but to follow it as best as they can so I can do my job. That way, I can capture all the cuteness in all these sweet little poses! This mommy and daddy followed those guides to a ‘T’! And even made sure to contact me right away when Baby Leo was born.

Sometimes parents know exactly what they want or they have a Pinterest page with the poses they have their heart set on. I always say it’s good to have an idea, but since baby calls the shots throughout the session, it’s best to keep an open mind. I promise we will get gorgeous images of your precious one. My style is timeless and classic. This mommy and daddy sat back and let me take the reigns, which I’m all too happy to do so!

Welcome, Baby Lillian!

This sweet baby girl came to the studio with her very own VIP cheering section. Girl number three for this family and everyone was so, very excited to welcome this bundle of sweetness into the family. And she ROCKED her session as well! Just look at the cuteness captured in the studio:

When mom contacted me during her pregnancy, she knew she wanted to include the entire family during the newborn shoot. I steered her in the direction of the Deluxe Session, which is the most popular package and also includes photos with parents and siblings. Mom also chose to add on a maternity session which I ADORE because it gives me an opportunity to work with the entire family before the newborn session. PLUS you get even more artwork to add to your walls. This little one wanted me to capture her belly too–isn’t she adorbs?!

The family portion of the shoot is done right away so siblings can relax after their portion. Some parents drive separately so they can take brothers of sisters to the park or to get ice cream since sessions can last up to three hours. This gives them a chance to get spoiled and have some one-on-one time with a parent while the focus in the studio can be on the new baby during the photo shoot. If driving separately is not an option, I have a whole room full of toys for them to play and stay entertained.

When choosing a newborn photographer, make sure they have the training and skill to safely work with each family member with confidence and patience. I’m so blessed to have been trained with some of the best photographers in the world and continue to hone my craft with superior photographers in this business. Let me capture your life’s memories.
