As spring’s gentle warmth awakened the world, this beautiful couple stepped into the season’s soft embrace, celebrating the anticipation of their first child. Surrounded by delicate blooms, their maternity session captured the magic of new beginnings. Mom radiated elegance in a rose pink gown from my client closet, its dramatic side slit and long sleeves adding an ethereal grace as she moved through the blossoming landscape. The soft hues of the flowers mirrored this tender season in their lives—a time of waiting, dreaming, and deepening love.
As the sun dipped lower, she changed into a stunning hunter green mermaid-style gown, its flowing train perfect for catching the breeze. Bold and rich, it contrasted beautifully with the softness of the setting, symbolizing both the beauty and strength of motherhood. Solo portraits captured her radiant glow, while couple’s images preserved their unspoken connection—the way he looked at her, the gentle touches, the quiet smiles. Every detail, from the floral-filled location to the gowns that added drama and grace, wove together a story of love, anticipation, and the beautiful journey ahead.

There’s something magical about capturing motherhood in a way that feels both glamorous and deeply personal. This Charlotte couple’s studio maternity session was just that—a celebration of love, anticipation, and pure elegance. Mama-to-be wanted high-fashion moments, and she delivered, selecting three stunning looks from my curated client closet. From flowing gowns to a delicate silk wrap, every detail highlighted her radiant glow.
Her husband was the ultimate hype man, helping with dress tosses and creating dreamy movement with the silk wrap, making their images effortlessly romantic. Their connection was undeniable, and capturing these moments in my Waxhaw studio was a reminder of why I love being a Charlotte maternity photographer. More than just portraits, maternity sessions preserve the excitement, love, and joy of this chapter. I can’t wait for them to look back on these images and relive not just how incredible they looked, but how much fun we had creating them!

Some sessions hold an extra layer of emotion, and this was one of them. This sweet couple booked a Bump to Baby session to beautifully document their journey into parenthood—from the quiet anticipation of pregnancy to the joy of holding their little one. Their maternity session felt like the perfect beginning, capturing their deep love and excitement.
Nestled by a peaceful garden stream, they embraced the simplicity of the moment, dressed in soft, neutral tones. The natural setting mirrored their quiet joy as they awaited their baby’s arrival. For the second half, mom wore her baby shower dress—a sentimental nod to the love surrounding this little one from the start. As she moved through the garden, the dress flowed with her, carrying the emotions of this journey in every step.
This session wasn’t just about beautiful images—it was about telling their story. A story of love, anticipation, and the beauty of stepping into parenthood together. And with their newborn session still to come, this is just the beginning of the memories they’ll cherish forever.

I can’t say enough great things about Tobi!
My family has used her photography business twice now. We did a mommy and me shoot, and I also did a maternity shoot. She was very professional, family friendly, fun, and just fantastic. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful photographer. We plan to continue using her for all our future photography needs!

I absolutely loved working with Mrs. Tobi! She is such a funny and kind person and truly puts you at ease in the studio! I tend to be nervous when taking pictures and Mrs. Tobi truly knows how to make you comfortable! We were laughing the entire time and it felt like I was with an old friend during the session! She is also the absolute best hype person EVER!!! She makes you feel like royalty while in the studio. The photos all turned out truly gorgeous and I’m so thankful I did my maternity pictures with her to best capture this beautiful time in my life. I’m so thankful for her stunning work, and for her! I look forward to working with her again in the future!

If you are looking for a maternity and newborn photographer, the search should end with Tobi. She is absolutely amazing and easy to work with. She did the bump to baby session with me, I could not have asked for a better photographer to make both me and my newborn more comfortable. Her organization and attention to detail is incredible, and she contains a wealth of knowledge relating to pregnancy and newborns.
Thank you Tobi!

“Tobi was amazing to work with! For both our maternity pictures and our newborn pictures, she was so patient and made sure we loved all of our photos. She has a special way of making sure a mother feels comfortable during the maternity pictures and makes the newborn session customized to things that the family likes. We are so lucky we chose to work with Tobi and absolutely love all of the pictures we've gotten from her."
Kellyn
“Our Maternity photoshoot with Tobi was such a delightful experience! She made us feel so comfortable and welcomed during the whole shoot. She helped guide us through poses with patience and executed the shots amazingly. An extra plus is that she kept my husband and I laughing and smiling the whole time with her firecracker personality. The outcome of our photos were beautiful and I'm already anticipating the next time our family will be booking with Tobi again!”
