Morning shoots are definitely the way to go during the scorching summers here in North Carolina! If you’re a local, you know how hot and humid it can get by the afternoon and evening. For happy kids and happy parents, I often suggest to schedule a shoot in the morning when it’s cooler and less sticky. It’s more comfortable for everyone, which means happier kids and more smiles! ;)

I recently had the honor of photographing adorable six month photos for this sweet family! Baby M loved looking at my camera during the shoot—it was as if she was studying my camera! She held a steady gaze with the camera for almost every shot, and was so sweet and calm during the shoot. I also loved how her parents incorporated Sophie (the popular giraffe teether) and “Cro-bot,” the crocheted robot, into the shoot! Her dad is an engineer, which I thought was so fitting for the Cro-bot :) Y’all, if you have something special that you’d like to incorporate into your shoot, please bring it! I highly encourage families to bring lovies or items that will help put their baby at ease; plus, it truly makes your photo extra special and memorable.

A Special Note on Safety and COVID-19:

To help ensure a safe shoot for clients, I wear masks for all sessions and do my best to maintain proper social distance. If you are considering a family photography shoot, I’d love to hear from you! Feel free to contact me and I can provide you with more details about how I’m handling safety during COVID-19.
