Three Beautiful Sisters | Charlotte NC Newborn Photographer

One of the biggest complements is seeing my clients again for a session with their newest little one.  I first photographed this family when it was two sisters, now there are three beautiful sisters!  It is so fun to see my newborn clients grow up.  I have photographed their second babies’ newborn session, then a 6 month sitter session, and now for their newest beautiful girl!

We started with sibling photos first, because the middle sister is still a baby herself so I knew we did not have long with her.  She was a wild little one, but we manage to get some sweet photos with her beautiful sisters.  Even though children are quick and busy, all you need is on split second of a smile or a giggle to grab the shot.  Mom was pleasantly surprised I was able to get as many great photos of their middle child as I did!

In the clients’ home, they had beautiful window light.  For the sibling photos, I decided to use the natural light and it turned out gorgeous!  The clients also had this beautiful stone wall feature that I used for the family and parent poses.  It adds a different feel to the photos while also providing some neat texture.

After family photos, we took some single photos of the new beautiful sister.  Sweet baby girl made us work for these shots, and Mom was an amazing assistant!!  But all the sweat and patiences paid off and we were able to get some beautiful photos! My favorite photo is the simple white blanket and tulips.  It is so fresh, clean, and a hint of spring.  This baby girl was born just at the time tulips bloom in the Carolina, so I thought it would perfect to incorporate fresh tulips into this session and I’m so glad I did!
