Charleston Maternity and Motherhood Photography

Celebrating the beautiful moments of pregnancy, motherhood, family, and the joy of new life.

Motherhood is a journey filled with countless emotions, from the raw excitement of pregnancy to the precious moments spent with your little one as they grow. Each stage of this journey—whether you’re celebrating the beauty of your pregnancy, welcoming your newborn, or capturing the milestones of your baby’s first year—deserves to be documented with care and intention. These moments, while beautiful, are also short-lived, making it all the more important to preserve them. You can choose to include your children, partner, or even your mom or beloved pet—it's entirely up to you how you want to capture this special time. As a mother myself, I know how intimate and meaningful these moments are. My goal is to honor each unique chapter, from the powerful transformation of pregnancy to the joy of watching your baby grow. Together, we’ll create timeless images that reflect the authentic beauty and connection of your family.

Capture the Beauty and Excitment of Your Pregnancy with a Maternity Session

Motherhood starts with pregnancy—a time of profound transformation. A maternity session is about capturing the raw emotion, pure excitement, and anticipation that come with expecting your little one. I will document the beauty of your amazing body and the incredible changes and curves that reflect the journey of carrying new life. My sessions are designed to honor your strength and the natural beauty of this time.

The location for your session is entirely up to you and what feels most meaningful. Whether you prefer the serene beauty of a Charleston beach, the comfort and intimacy of your own home, or the natural charm of a beautiful park, there are many options to choose from. My goal is to ensure the setting enhances the experience, allowing us to capture authentic, heartfelt moments that showcase your connection to your growing family and the incredible journey you’re on.

Testimonials from Charleston Families

I highly recommend Amy for all your photography needs! Amy did an outstanding job with the new baby announcement photos for my son and future daughter-in-law. The photos truly captured the couple's excitement and love for one another. Amy was very patient and accommodating to our requests. She did the photo shoot a the family's property in Hollywood and captured the perfect shots with the best natural light. The quality of Amy's work is top-notch and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an intuitive artist who knows how to capture the moment. We will definitely use her again!
