Why are babies ages 6-8 months so deliciously perfect? They can do so much, but for the most part keep still! Baby photography is one of my favorite things. Baby sessions can occur anytime in the first year – newborn, sitter, one year and any other milestone you want to capture. After a newborn session, […]

5 Tips for Hiring a Newborn Photographer Congratulations! What an exciting time! Being an expectant mom can be overwhelming. Everyone has advice and is more than willing to share it. Sometimes it is super helpful and, let’s face it, sometimes not so much. NPS Photography wants to fall into the SUPER HELPFUL category by providing […]

NPS Photography Album Options I hear this a lot. “I’m not not a wall art kind of person” or “We just don’t have much wall space for wall art”. I understand. With open floor plans in newer homes, wall space is very limited. And many people simply prefer paintings on their walls and smaller framed […]

A sweet newborn girl completed this family of five. She has two big brothers who love her to pieces (as you can see below!). Mom wanted her session to be all girl, so I chose pinks and bows to incorporate into the session. She looks pretty perfect in pink, too! Little Miss E was not […]

Mr. S was one of my first Simply Newborn Sessions. He was amazing and even flashed a smile during his session.

Sleepy, snuggly and completely adorable. Miss C’s mom booked a Simply Newborn Session at the beginning of November.  Although these sessions are […]

Maternity portraits can be done in my studio or at an outdoor location.  When it’s mom only, I always recommend the studio. I have many maternity portrait ideas for studio sessions. I have several backdrops and many dresses that you have fun access to in the studio.  All you need to do is bring your […]

What type of session makes me the MOST hungry? Cake Smash Portraits of course! Over the past year, I have worked with C. Cups in downtown Southern Pines. Janell creates the most beautiful cakes and cupcakes and not only are they gorgeous to look at, but they are YUMMY! If mom and dad are lucky, […]

Newborn baby portraits are my speciality.  I mean, I enjoy family, toddler, maternity and baby sessions, but newborns are my jam. I get excited (and a bit nervous) before each newborn session.  I love styling the sessions and pulling items compliment what was filled out on the Styling Questionnaire. I only give options I LOVE, […]
