Maggie Coleman | An Anderson, SC Newborn Photographer

I was so excited when I got word that Maggie was born safely and that Alisha was home from the hospital and ready for her pictures! I consider it such a privilege to get to capture the first days of baby's life! It worked out for me to come over when Maggie was four days old. I was actually driving to Maryland and stopped on the way. I'm so glad I was able to take them before being gone for 10 days because I think you are able to capture so much detail in the first few weeks of a baby's life (like their little wrinkles and umbilical cord stump).

I had a wonderful time taking pictures of little Maggie. I was super impressed with how well she did! Seriously, she remained still for several minutes and she even has her eyes open in a lot of the pictures! It really felt like she was almost posing for the camera. I also loved Alisha's nursery and all of her cute props and ideas for the pictures (props can make such a difference!).

Here are a few of my favorite pictures of sweet little Maggie:

Alisha refinished this antique dresser and wanted to get a few of Maggie in one of the drawers. What an adorable idea! And her facial expression cracks me up!

Have you ever seen such an expressive newborn?!

I love her sweet little fingers in these ones.

I LOVE this one! Maggie decided to prop one of her legs up on the basket (she did it totally on her own!) and I was able to capture her little foot. I love that it's so detailed you can even see the fibers from the blanket on her toes.

Sweet family!

Hadley Jane Anderson Newborn Pictures | Clemson, SC

I was very excited when Carrie asked me to take pictures of her first baby, Hadley Jane! I haven't had much experience with newborn photography and so I was thankful for the opportunity to learn and develop as a photographer in an area I'm less familiar with. I was also excited to get to meet little Hadley right after she was born! Hadley was born a couple of weeks ago and I was able to take pictures of her at 4 days old. We had a tough time getting her to relax and stop crying in the beginning of the shoot. But after a little while she calmed down and did a fantastic job relaxing and being posed for pictures.
