Maternity

I was super excited to do Lydia’s maternity pictures with a large family in Greer SC. I’ve photographed 3 of her babies including one of the two that came through the gift of foster care to adoption. In fact, big sister Zoey was one of the first 25 babies I ever had the privilege to photograph way back  in 2014.

Lydia had never done maternity photos, but knowing this was the family’s last baby so wanted to remember her pregnancy. She also loved that she didn’t have to get any clothing for the session because of my Mama Wardrobe included with your session.<– Click there to see my gowns in all sizes! In fact, this down to earth mama may have come to the studio in her favorite pair of pajamas and a full face of make up! It was amazing! One of the concerns that I often hear from clients with big siblings about booking a maternity session is “What will the kids do when they’re not being photographed?” This, ya’ll. They’ll stand in the backdrop playing with all the toys I hide until I’ve taken their images and bust out right before I focus on the couple.

However, the best benefit of a maternity session is that the big siblings become familiar with me and the studio BEFORE your coveted sibling picture. It also gives me time to create portraits of each individual kid as you’ll see below. It’s the best glimpse of big sibling’s personality!Are you looking to book your own maternity pictures with a large family in Greer SC? I can wait to meet all of your kids and make special me memories of this time for you! Click here to contact me today and tell me a little about your family. I’d be honored to serve you!

I think a Greer SC Maternity Mini Photo Session is the perfect way to capture a few beautiful images from your pregnancy. However, it’s also the perfect way to audition a newborn photographer. Just like a bridal portrait helps you get to know your wedding photographer and reduce the stress of so many portraits on your big day, a Mini Maternity let’s you get to know your photographer, find their studio, and know what to expect from your photographers business process.  I was so glad that Savanna chose to book her maternity mini!Savanna also chose to book hair and make up through me with Cotton Rogue. Katie Cotton, the owner of Cotton Rogue did a wonderful job pampering Savanna. Having your hair and make up done is such a confidence booster.

Holly contacted me for a Greenville SC Mini Maternity Photography Session including her older daughter Emma.  I met Emma when she was a newborn and was so excited to see her all grown up to almost 2 years.  Look at how cute Emma was in this natural and simple newborn set from her session. You can see the rest of Emma’s natural and timeless newborn session by clicking here.

One of the best parts about booking a maternity session for your second child is the photos we’re able to get of your first child during that session.  There’s a little less pressure and I’m able to focus fully on your big sibling.

And the added benefit is that when you come back for your newborn session, your child will already be familiar with me and the studio. It’s a win-win the day of the newborn session when we’re able to get the sibling photos you want a little easier 😉

Emma was pretty much the most fun child I’ve had under two in a long time! She likes to climb, play, and throw around my studio newborn posing pillows (don’t worry… I started that game not her!). We had a blast capturing some of that mischief on camera!

And ofcourse, we captured Holly’s pregnancy with Emma’s baby sister, too!

Because daddy was out of town on the day of the session, Holly’s dad joined her. I really enjoyed getting to meet him and capture some images with him as well.

Are you looking for a mini maternity session in Greer SC? Mini maternity sessions in my Taylors, SC studio include a full wardrobe for you to borrow as wells as dresses for your daughters and shirts for your husband and son. A mini maternity is perfect for getting no-stess images of big siblings individually before the session.  I flexibly schedule mini maternity sessions for week night evenings and afternoons (as well as normal daytime slots).  You get to select the images that you want most from your session after you see them.  And, best of all, if you book your newborn session after your maternity session, I discount your newborn session fee by the cost of the maternity session fee.

Cortney borrowed three gowns from my maternity wardrobe in addition to the cute outfit she wore. It’s so fun being able to play dress up with mamas in the studio. Wardrobe sizing ranges from S-3XL. I pin larger garments to fit you precisely. I hope all my mama’s feel like princesses in this time where everything feels like it doesn’t fit or flatter the way they’d like. I love playing with light during maternity sessions.  It’s such a fun way to add drama and highlight emotion in your images.  The two images below were taken just a few minutes apart and they tell such different stories about anticipation. The back lighting gives a sweet dreamy effect to their shared looked of joy. While the front lighting highlights the hopes and dreams for their baby girl..

I adored working with Emily on her Romantic Airy Maternity Photography Greenville SC.  Emily had both vision and amazing enthusiasm for this session. I can tell you how much fun it was to work with someone so excited.

Emily and Byron have wanted a little one for a long time.  But the process hasn’t been easy. After years, they gave it one more shot.  Wynter Rose is already so loved that you can feel it in these images.

In the midst of pregnancy joy, Emily and Byron have been dealing with moving and an extended house remodel.  So Emily rightfully splurged on hair and make up with the lovely Cotton Rouge who came to my studio ready to pamper Emily. I love watching the makeup artists work their magic.  Emily delighted in being spoiled.

Emily brought a few dresses from Pink Blush, but also borrowed this one from my mama wardrobe. I love providing a wardrobe for my clients so they don’t have to purchase something new unless they want to.  You can view my mama wardrobe items by clicking here.

I think these two are my favorite Romantic Airy Maternity Photography Greenville SC from this session.  I love how Emily is looking at Byron with so much respect and love.  And I love how both of them are looking at Wynter Rose with so much joyful anticipation.  I cannot wait to see them hold her in just a few weeks!

Are you looking for your own maternity photographer with a romantic and airy style?  I would love to be considered!

Maternity session fees are waived for all newborn clients, but if you’d prefer to try me out before booking your newborn that’s okay too. I apply your maternity session as a credit to your newborn session fee instead.  Contact me today to tell me about your dream session(s) by clicking here.
