This was my first time working with this beautiful couple, and I look forward to documenting the arrival of their first child next month! For their maternity session, the couple shared that they have a love for the coast, so we decided to have our maternity session on-location at sunrise on the beach!

I love photographing portrait sessions at sunrise, especially on the coast. Saint Augustine Beach makes for the perfect sunrise photo session location since we're on the east coast. You get those colorful skies and that soft, beautiful light - perfect for dreamy maternity sessions.

Although I typically like to have my clients leave props at home, and go for a more natural lifestyle feel, I loved that we were able to incorporate the kimono wrap into the portrait session. It was actually one of my favorite things about this session! I think it brought a Boho feel to the portraits, and made for beautiful backlit images. And who doesn't love fringe! <3

Whether you're pregnant now, or planning to expect, make time for a maternity session. You'll never regret the effort, or the investment. Be sure to stay tuned next month when we welcome the arrival of their very first child. I look forward to meeting the little nugget soon!
