Wilmington, NC Newborn Photography
Tiny beginnings, eternal blessings
Every picture will be a reminder of the gifts He’s placed in your life.
This isn’t just about having beautiful photos
It’s about holding onto the sacred moments where God’s hand is writing your motherhood story
Those first days with your baby are tender in ways words can’t quite capture. You’re navigating brand new emotions, falling in love in a whole new way, and holding moments you wish you could stretch out just a little longer. This experience is here to meet you in this moment, where your hands are full, your heart is fuller.
From gentle guidance to thoughtful care, every part of your session is designed to feel like rest. So you can soak in the sweetness of this season while I help you remember it forever.
I'm Michelle
And I’m here for mothers in Wilmington, NC who want to cherish the blessing of new life, and hold on to the grace woven into these early days.
You will be embraced in every detail
A beautiful curated wardrobe waits for you
During this season of motherhood your body often doesn’t feel quite like your own with the shifting, healing, and changing, making it hard hard to feel confident. But here, you'll be guided to pieces that help you feel beautiful, comfortable, and fully yourself. The wardrobe is chosen for mothers at every stage, so you don’t have to overthink, shop, or wonder what will work, it’s already here, ready for you.
Hair & makeup not only to prepare but to nurture
Before your session, our trusted hair and makeup artist comes to you. You don’t need to pack up, leave early, or figure out how to get ready while holding your baby. You stay where you are. You feed when you need to. And while you take care of your little one, someone is there to take care of you and helping you feel like yourself again, without the pressure to be anything more.
Thoughtful help to bring your memories home
After your session, we’ll meet for your design appointment, a guided moment where you don’t have to figure anything out on your own. We'll reveal your gallery together and I’ll walk you through every option and help create something beautiful for all your memories, like artwork for your walls and albums for the many hands that will hold them for years to come.

"Having a newborn can feel like a whirlwind. I am so thankful we took a moment to pause and capture us all"
We have a photo of my two year old son running up to his 6 day old sister and kissing her forehead. It it the sweetest thing ever and I’m so glad Michelle captured that moment. I was also so glad that Michelle offered wardrobe not only for me, but for the kids as well! That took so much stress out of the planning process. Just as the makeup and hair styling was amazing and so helpful, especially for those newborn photo shoots when you don’t have time to get ready yourself.

"If I could bottle up one feeling from our sessions, it would be that rare mix of confidence and calm. I felt seen and beautifully captured, without needing to be anything but myself."
- Jaclyn
"During our session, it felt like time slowed down. You created such a peaceful space for our family, and when I saw our album, I was overwhelmed by how beautifully you captured not just how we look, but who we are.

Become a part of the First Year Collective
Because one session could never hold all the love and grace of their very first year
With the membership you have three to four sessions during your baby’s first year, each one a chance to pause, take it in, and remember what this season really felt like. The little changes and the milestones that come and go without warning.
It’s the experience so many families turn to when they don't want to miss a moment of their baby's first year. It's for the families who want more than just one day frozen in time, it's for the ones who want the full story.

On the day of your session, all you need to do is be present with your baby and simply slow down and take it all in. The love. The connection. The way this season feels right now.
And after your session, we’ll meet again to turn those memories into lasting artwork that tells the story of this sacred season.
The session fee is $350.
