Capturing the Beauty of Pregnancy: Why Charleston Moms Should Consider Maternity Portraits

You may remember Shelby and Jay from a session I featured on here earlier this year, when they announced they were expecting a baby girl in early August! This spring and summer have FLOWN by, and we, fortunately, worked in this sweet maternity session FOUR DAYS before baby girl arrived!

I met with this wonderful duo and their two pups, Riley and Bailey, for their second installment of portraits one hot, humid morning in between rain showers. Hampton Park in July is just stunning with gardens overflowing with bright colors. The crepe myrtles were in full bloom and provided the perfect backdrop for documenting this special chapter of motherhood. The soft morning light filtered through the Spanish moss, highlighting the joy and anticipation of their growing family.

Shelby and Jay have already welcomed their little baby girl Ava into this world, but they will always cherish this fleeting time. Shelby’s maternity photographs capture the beauty and strength of her journey, preserving the anticipation and love that filled these moments. Her images will become treasured keepsakes, a reflection of the bond she’s already formed. When Baby Ava sees these photos in the years to come, she’ll share laughs with her mom about our hot and humid Charleston summers, and she’ll know how much she was already loved, even before she arrived.

For those looking to document the exquisite journey into motherhood, I offer a Motherhood Membership Program. This program includes multiple sessions throughout your pregnancy, newborn, and early family phases, ensuring that every milestone is beautifully captured. As a member, you'll receive exclusive perks like priority booking and session credits towards prints and albums. It's the perfect way to ensure that each chapter of your story is lovingly documented, creating a timeless legacy for your family. Consider capturing this extraordinary time—you’ll be glad you did.

What sets Amy apart is not only her talent but also her dedication to her craft. Her attention to detail and passion for photography shine through in every image. As a friend, I always want to support those closest to me, but choosing Amy for our professional photos was a no-brainer. Her work speaks for itself, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Thank you, Amy, for capturing this special moment in our lives so beautifully!
