Newborn Sweetness! Fuquay Varina Newborn Photographer

Have I mentioned lately how much I love my job!   I get to go and hold these precious sweet newborns and cuddle with them for a few hours and then often get to watch them grow!  What fun.  This little one was no exception.  So very sweet!  Angie and Ryan, you have such a precious little boy…thank you so much for letting me hang out with you for a few hours.  I think these images capture him perfectly!

I’ve had several inquires about newborn sessions and so I wanted to give a few details about them here on the blog!  (you can always e-mail me for more info)

  • If you are expecting right now, it’s a great time to book as session with me as I’m running a really great promotion, so feel free to e-mail me and check out availability
  • Newborn sessions are scheduled up to 7 months out.
  • Newborn sessions are best shot in the first week of life (it’s how we are able to get those sleepy all curled up poses)
  • I come to you (which is very nice for new parents) and sometimes the sessions can take up to 2 hours…just depending on the babe…but it’s not a big deal.  If your baby needs feeding or cuddling or a change, no biggie
  • Most of my newborn shots are taken in just a diaper or naked…newborn outfits really don’t fit very well and babies get all lost in them.  But if you have a special outfit that you want photographed, I will be happy to do that.
  • It’s all about light….I will find the best light possible…sometimes that is on a back porch, bathroom or even a garage with the door open.  Please just trust me that this is part of what gives my images such a great exposure!
  • Poop happens…yes, it does!  Please don’t be alarmed if your baby potty’s….it’s part of the job for me and ALL babies do it!

Okay, so enough babling!  without further ado….meet baby Landon!

Wrapping up the Summer: Holden Beach

I’m so sorry I haven’t been as faithful of a blogger as usual.  You would think that with the kids in school, I would have more time, but I’m just slammed and loving it!

This is a busy week at SAP…lots going on!  I’m in the process of redoing all my written promotional items and though I love it, it’s time consuming.  I’ve had some new mommies schedule some newborn sessions and Stephanie from gigiCreations and I will head to Atlanta in a few weeks for a weekend of Models and Minis…so fun!

I wanted to touch base about the How Did She Do That class….it will be launching in a few weeks and there are still a few spots left so if you are at all interested, please go ahead and sign up!

Okay, well there’s lots more to share, newborns, beach sessions, etc.  This just just one quick peek from a recent beach sessions.  Enjoy!

Giving Back: North Carolina Photographer

As a photographer, I feel that the gift/skills I have been given are not my own!  I truly believe that they are God’s gift to me to use.  I often find it hard to give back my gift.  Yes, I come into contact with many people and along the way, the Lord has used that, but for a while, I have had this tugging at my heart to do something more.

I have been thinking about doing this for some time now, and you know how things just stay on your brain for a while.  So I’m really excited to announce my “giving back” program.  Please if you know of anyone (it can be a family, a child, a teen….) who you think is perfect for this, then please send me an e-mail.    I can’t do this without your eyes and ears keeping me informed!  Thanks so much, I’m so excited to see what God is going to do through this!

I Blogged! Photographer North Carolina

I’ve been a bit absent with my blogging….it’s just that time of year when things are just so crazy.  I’m trying to wrap up everything from the summer and still plan and get ready for a very busy fall season.  A few tid bits!

  • Family:  we are all doing well.  Kids go back to school tomorrow and I have to say, I’m not sure they are really excited about it.  We’ve had a great and full summer and I think they will welcome the routine of school, but I know Micah will not enjoy just the mere fact that he will have to get up early again:)  Makaley is just having fun “back to school” shopping and I think she will love 2nd grade.  Things are busy at church…and they will just increase as the year comes to an end.
  • Fall/Holidays: Make sure you check here for information about our fall/holiday promotions
  • I’m running a fabulous newborn special…if you are interested please e-mail me at info at sara-annephotography.com
  • As you think about the Holidays and gifts, make sure you check out my product store that is filled with fabulous gift ideas.  These are only available for clients
  • Lots of fun things coming my way…a Next top Model shoot (High School) and my trip to Atlanta with gigiCreations…can’t believe we have 9 children signed up for that weekend.  Still have one available, so if you are interested, head over to gigiCreations and sign up.
  • Still trying to reach 1000 fans…please click here if you haven’t already joined our FB family

I had so much fun with this family…they have been a favorite of mine since I took the mom & kiddo’s pictures as a surprise gift to dad.  Was so happy when they called me to shoot them on Holden Beach!
