Due Date Pals | Folly Beach, SC Maternity Session

When this mom first reached out to me about a maternity and newborn session I was so upset because I was unable to photograph her baby. It turns out that we were due just two days apart! I was thrilled that she still wanted to do maternity pictures together. 

Torn between Downtown Charleston and Folly Beach, I think she picked the most perfect spot. The light was magical and they definitely had that first time parent glow. It was fun to photograph someone just as pregnant as me, however I was struggling on the sand way more than she was! 

We left the session with, "good luck! See you at the hospital!"

He was pretty good to me this morning

I always end sessions with an all white portion. While I love the beginning with color, it's always these end shots that tug at my heart.

Mepkin Abbey Maternity Session | Charleston, SC Maternity Photographer

After weeks of planning, location hunting and then rainy weather, I was thrilled with how the evening turned out for this sweet couple's maternity session. Mepkin Abbey in Monks Corner, South Carolina is a beautiful backdrop. The grounds feature live oaks, old bricks and an overgrown field with wild flowers with the most perfect sunset. It was hot, the bugs were out and we even saw an alligator... just what you expect from a South Carolina summer evening.  

I already called dibs on mom's dress if you were wandering :) 

Check back in a few weeks to see their little bundle of joy! I'm so excited to meet him.

Sunset at Folly Beach | Folly Beach Maternity Photographer

Folly Beach has always been a special place for this out-of-town couple. They've visited many times and were even married on the beach. When it came time to do their maternity pictures, it was only fitting that they drove back down to "their beach". It was a perfect early fall night at Folly. The sun even put on a show for them - the sky was the most beautiful shades of pinks and oranges.

The most beautiful couple in a stunning location (mom in the most perfect dress). Y'all, this is maternity session perfection. Can't wait to meet this little guy!

And because I couldn't decide. Which do you prefer? Color or B&W?
