Baby Ava, 1 Week Old | Upstate Greenville, SC Newborn Lifestyle Photographer

Posted

I met Sweet Baby Ava and her mommy and daddy for their in-home newborn portraits in Upstate SC when she was just one week old! This little bitty girl decided she wanted to show up a few weeks early, and even though she caught her sweet parents by surprise, they are all getting settled into their new life with lots of love and sweetness. I love photographing newborn portraits at home…where baby first learns to live and love, where we can capture some great lifestyle moments, and where the family can still hibernate together at home. I hope you will enjoy Miss Ava’s sneak peek…more to come once I finish her entire gallery!

Introducing…Baby Ava, 1 Week Old

It was super important to get a portrait of the entire family…including Ava’s fur-brother, Cooper. 😉

Ava’s mommy and her uncle both slept in this cradle when they were babies, too. Ava’s mommy made this sweet animal-themed quilt…but didn’t quite get it finished before Ava made her appearance! She finished quilting just in time for our portraits, though!

The Murphys’ and Collins’ Family Portraits: Sneak Peek! | Greenville Baby and Family Photographer

Posted

I went to school with both of these lovely sisters, and it was lots of fun to photograph each of their families this morning while they were all back in town for a visit! I photographed Nicole’s adorably fun family a couple of years ago, and it’s always special to be asked again. Tara’s sweet baby boy is just 3 weeks old, and oooooh so cute!

Enjoy this Sneak Peek…more to come soon!

Dad is preparing to deploy, and it was really important that we photograph him in uniform, spending time with his family…
