Newborn Baby Photography | Charlotte | Meet Elliot

 Newborn Baby Photography by KatieRie Photography

Recently in my Charlotte, NC newborn photography studio, I was able to meet and snuggle sweet little Elliot.  This little guy was a DREAM during his session–so cuddly and sweet and sleepy! Mom and dad brought proud big sister to partake in the photograph festivities as well.  I LOVE seeing how siblings interact with their new baby brother or sister.  Some kids are OBSESSED with the new addition and some kids could care less.  But either way it’s fun to document the story of the each family dynamic;)

One of my favorite parts of newborn photography is capturing those tiny details, and Elliot’s details were so beautiful! Take a look below…

I love using props and layers that compliment the baby but don’t “overpower” the baby. You can read more about my style HERE and more about the studio HERE.

KatieRie Photography Style || Charlotte Portrait Photographer

The Style of a Newborn & Portrait Photographer|| KatieRie Photography

My style as a Charlotte Newborn and Portrait photographer is described as light, airy, organic, and simple, yet sometimes playing with gorgeous shadows.  The colors that are used most of the time are soft neutrals that are timeless and elegant.  This is so the backdrops, props, wraps, and headbands don’t take away from the subject, but compliment her features.  The props used during sessions are vintage and classic, and the outfits were handmade specifically for photography, showcasing your gorgeous little one.  Each piece and prop is chosen with care so that your final product is a true piece of art.

Sometimes I like to play around with darker shadows or colors for a more dramatic effect and to offer more variety for my (amazing!) clients:

Baby Photography | Charlotte | Meet Molly

Charlotte Newborn Baby Photography

By KatieRie Photography

Mom (Melissa) contacted me earlier this year letting me know she was pregnant with their third baby (WOO HOO!).  They already had two rambunctious boys and they were waiting until delivery to find out the gender of this sweet little one.  I love, love, LOVE sharing the excitement with families and trying to guess the gender based on cravings and comparing pregnancies to see if we can all make an accurate guess.  When we met for the maternity session, Dad (Jonathon) stated that he thought for sure it was going to be a girl because Melissa craved meat, more than she ever had in the time he had known her.  This made me chuckle–cravings are so different with each pregnancy, no matter what the gender is.

For their maternity session, the lighting was magical and the weather was just right, which makes for stunning Maternity photos, don’t you think?

“she was almost born in our truck!”

Fast forward to quite an exciting entrance!  Little Miss Molly entered the world April 22 at 8:15pm and was almost born in their truck on the way to the hospital! Melissa started to feel early labor signs that weekend, but kept pushing it aside as you do with your third pregnancy.  Well things progressed rather quickly and the next thing they knew they were at the hospital rushing to get a spot in the ER!  Keys thrown at the valet, wheelchair in tow, and before anyone knew it, out she came!  Everything was so crazy that it took awhile to sink in that they had a GIRL!!

 

All craziness aside, this little girl was a DREAM during her session.  You never would have guessed that her delivery was chaotic because she slept through her entire session.  Just look at all her adorableness!

I love how the sweet big brothers are so proud of their new little sister:

The props, wraps and headbands were carefully selected from my Studio where I have a slight (ah-em) addiction (I promise, I’ll get help someday:).  One of my favorite pieces was this adorable headband (seen below) by my sweet friend over at Vanilla Lullaby.  Isn’t it so dainty and pretty on sweet little Molly?!

I am SO blessed to be able to snuggle sweet little babes and capture their cuteness on a regular basis.  I love hearing the stories of their exciting births, sharing the struggles of being a first time parent, and bonding with the entire family.  When you book a newborn session with KatieRie Photography, you’ll get the whole she-bang. I am just as excited as you are that your little one has arrived and I promise that will show during your session.
