I might be a little slow to answer emails as we wait to see what happens with Hurricane Matthew. I'm still planning on getting galleries from last week out in the next few days. Everyone stay safe out there!
First Look: Folly Beach Sunset Maternity Session | Folly Beach Maternity Photographer
Because there were two stars of the show last night...
Rain in Charleston is pretty rare. Or at least it feels that way after living in Seattle for three years. We had gone days without a drop of rain and then on session day, it was pouring! We pushed the session back until the next day without a chance of rain and hoped for the best since Missy and her husband were on vacation at Folly Beach.
Y'all, last night was perfection. Cotten candy clouds over the surf and a pug wearing a bow-tie. What could be better that that?

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.

Photography Class for moms in Charleston, South Carolina
First Look | Monks Corner Maternity Session | Charleston Maternity Photographer
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?
Pastel Cake Smash Cake
The colors of this cake smash have me smitten. I found this paper flower garland right before we moved and had it stashed away for the perfect session. We decided that a simple white backdrop and a little pop of color would be adorable.
I strongly believe that I am commissioned to take your pictures of your child. Therefore, I will never post pictures without written permission.
Do you have a little one with an upcoming birthday? Let's chat about planning your little one's cake smash and splash session!

Fall Pictures | Charleston, South Carolina Child Photographer
We practiced over and over again. We got out to the field and he suddenly couldn't hold the pumpkin without dropping it. You wouldn't believe the coaxing (and promises) that happened to make this picture. Luckily, by the time we got home he forgot about everything promised to him and just wanted to run around with the pumpkin on his head.
