White Point Gardens Maternity Session Preview | Charleston Maternity Photographer

I had the best time walking around downtown and chatting with this mom-to-be. I am so thankful for this job that connects me with such fun people!

I was so upset when I woke up to the sound of rain. This mom-to-be had booked her Folly Beach maternity session months in advance and I really wanted it to be the perfect night. Late morning, the sun came out and I was so hopeful the day would turn around. And that's when a nasty, black could rolled in. I checked the radar (a few dozen times), fired off an email and then waited. 

The radar promised a clear sky over the beach, so I loaded up the car in the rain and started driving. Sure enough, the sky started to turn blue the closer to the beach I got. And, without fail, as soon as I parked the bottom dropped out. 

BUT.... 

About the time the rain stopped, we started walking out to the beach with a "hope for the best" attitude. As we topped the sand hill we were met with a glorious view of the lighthouse and the most beautiful cotton-candy cloud sky. The evening just got better as the sun started to set. We laughed, dad danced, there was a peanut gallery of little boys playing at the beach offering their commentary on our session - it was just a fun night! 

I am so thankful for this couple that drove through a thunderstorm for pictures with me. I think Folly Beach was showing off for them because it was one of the most beautiful nights I've ever seen.

It was so windy, a little cold and we were the last people at the beach, but HOLY COW! I am so thankful for clients who trust me and hang in there until the sun sets. First beach session of the year set the bar pretty dang high. I cannot wait to meet their little girl soon.

This sweet baby is keeping everyone on their toes, but I am so happy we were able to get some pictures of this beautiful momma!

A downtown Charleston, SC Maternity Session

There were a ton of snuggles this morning during this freezing downtown session. I cannot wait to meet this little guy in the spring.

A historic Charleston Maternity Session

He grew up in Charleston and the Army brought them together in Savannah, GA. They traveled back to his hometown for a classic, historic Charleston maternity session. Despite the cold weather, the sunset was to die for!

There was a surprise proposal behind us, a man with bagpipes and -20 degree wind chills (slight exaggeration, but it was COLD) but these two had an amazing maternity session last night.
