Capturing the moments we hold so dear
FAMILY AND NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER
Serving Pinehurst, NC & surrounding areas.
Specializing in wrinkly fingers and toes, motherhood, toddler belly laughs, and relaxed chaos!
 
 
Hi! I'm so happy you ended up here. My name is Alyssa & I love documenting motherhood, newborns, families, and so on. To tell you a little bit about myself, I'm a mom to a feral toddler, a wife, and teacher. Thriving in the chaos of it all. As a mom, I realize time is fleeting faster than ever. I find myself wanting to freeze every single moment in a photo.
 
 
You want to document everything - whether it's a new milestone or a food covered face, you want to remember it all. That's what I love to capture the most during sessions! The real, silly, authentic moments you hold so close to your heart as a parent. I love hearing your birth story, how you met, and your toddler's favorite color. To me, these details & events create the story of who you are as a family that I can visually deliver through a photo.
What to expect when working with me:
Step 1: Book the session! Whoop whoop!
Send me a message, either here or on my socials to get started! I like to briefly chat to get a feel of what you are envisioning and answer any lingering questions you may have. Then I send a quick questionnaire that covers any ground we didn't cover that let's me learn more about your family.
Step 2: It's session time!
Every session is unique so I do not run them the same - but my core focus is on genuine connections and fluidity. I gently guide you through the session so you can relax and enjoy quality time with your family. I follow baby's (or toddlers!) lead during the session - if they're having fun you're having fun. (so you may end up a little sweaty by the end of it!) My goal is to not make you stand there awkwardly for what I call a "grandma photo" for the duration of your session. Yes I do try to take at least one picture perfect photo with all of you looking at the camera that grandma's love, but I do not force this!
Step 3: Gallery Delivery Day
You will receive your full digital online gallery within two to three weeks after your session via email with a download pin attached.
Lifestyle Newborn Sessions
Newborn sessions are my absolute favorite to document. They’re perfectly imperfect. Tiny toes, milk-drunk smiles, messy hair, and parents running on love (and very little sleep). There’s no pressure to pose or perform - just snuggles, yawns, and real moments happening in the place where your story actually lives. I adore these families so much and I'm so grateful for their permission to share their photos.
