There is something so special about photographing children in a space where they can truly be themselves, and our recent farm mini sessions at Jewell Family Farm in Wilmington were exactly that — pure joy, wonder, and the sweetest memories.


Four wonderful families joined me for these special kids and family mini sessions, and each little one got the chance to meet and snuggle the most adorable farm babies, including baby bunnies, goats, chicks, and ducklings. From the moment the families arrived, the excitement was contagious. These sessions were full of genuine smiles, cuddles, giggles, and so many unforgettable moments.


As a Wilmington family photographer specializing in children and family photography, these are the kinds of sessions that remind me why I love what I do so much.



Riley’s Sweet Start


Riley was our very first little guest of the day, and she was an absolute natural in front of the camera. It’s no surprise, since her mom is also a full-time photographer!


She gave me the sweetest smiles and was so incredibly patient while the animals got comfortable around her. Watching her gently interact with each baby animal made for the most beautiful child portrait photography moments. She truly made the session feel effortless and so full of charm.



Lyla and the Ducklings


Lyla was ready to love on the animals the second she stepped out of the car.


She jumped right into the experience with so much excitement and joy, and it was impossible not to smile watching her. Her parents and I were absolutely losing our minds over how adorable she looked holding the ducklings. They seemed so calm and cozy in her little hands, and the images we captured are some of my favorites from the day.


These kinds of candid children’s photography moments are exactly what make family mini sessions so special.



Cora & Owen’s Farm Adventure


Cora and Owen brought so much excitement and energy to their session.


They were thrilled with every new animal they got to meet and absolutely loved showing off every farm animal sound they knew. Their reactions were priceless, especially when they met the baby bunny.


Mom shared that they have been asking for a bunny forever, which made that part of the session even sweeter. Capturing their genuine excitement and sibling connection created the most heartwarming family photography and sibling portraits.



Walker’s Mama Snuggles


Walker might just be the smiliest little boy ever.


While the animals were adorable, he was much more interested in being photographed and getting snuggles from his mama — and honestly, I loved every second of it.


We spent much of his session walking around the farm and letting him explore at his own pace. Those quiet moments of connection between him and his mom created some truly beautiful mother and child lifestyle portraits that I know they’ll treasure forever.



Why Specialty Mini Sessions Are So Much Fun



I offer family mini sessions and children’s photography sessions year-round, making it easy for families to update portraits throughout every season.


But extra special themed sessions like these farm mini sessions in Wilmington are planned in advance and tend to book quickly because they offer such a unique experience for little ones.


These sessions are perfect for families looking for:


  • kids photography

  • family portraits

  • seasonal mini sessions

  • mommy and me photos

  • sibling photography

  • outdoor family photography in Wilmington

  • children’s milestone photos



The best part is that they are not just photo sessions — they become an experience and memory your children will talk about long after the photos are delivered.



Stay Updated on Upcoming Mini Sessions



I love creating fun, unique experiences for families and children throughout the year, and I already have more exciting themed mini sessions in the works.


Be sure to follow along on social media so you’re the first to know when the next special mini session is announced. These sessions are always so much fun and a wonderful way to capture your little ones exactly as they are in this season of life.


If you’re looking for a Wilmington family photographer for your next kids photography session, I would love to create something beautiful for your family.
