As the gentle warmth of spring began to awaken the world, this beautiful couple stepped into the soft embrace of the season, celebrating the anticipation of their first child. Surrounded by the delicate blooms of early spring, their maternity session was filled with the kind of magic that only comes with new beginnings. Mom radiated pure 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 the tenderness of this season in their lives—a time of waiting, dreaming, and deepening love. With dad by her side, they shared quiet, heartfelt moments, each image a reflection of their excitement for the journey ahead.
As the sun dipped lower, mom changed into a stunning hunter green mermaid-style gown, its flowing train a vision of movement and strength, perfect for tossing into the breeze. This dress, bold and rich, was the perfect contrast to the softness of the setting, symbolizing both the beauty and power of motherhood. Solo portraits captured her radiant glow, while couple’s images preserved the unspoken connection between them—the way he looked at her, the gentle touches, the quiet smiles. Every detail of this session, from the location chosen for its sweet blooms to the gowns that added a touch of drama and grace, came together to tell a story of love, anticipation, and the beautiful chapter they are about to begin.

A great spot to describe the dress, what you love so much about it, maybe mention something about pinning and photoshop so it will look great even if it might seem a tiny bit large at first! Describe the vibe and what else might go well with this to create the perfect look for your clients and their photos!

There’s something truly magical about capturing the beauty of motherhood in a way that feels both glamorous and deeply personal. This stunning couples studio maternity session was everything and more—a celebration of love, anticipation, and pure elegance. Coming from Charlotte, this mama-to-be wanted a session filled with breathtaking, high-fashion moments, and she absolutely delivered! She selected three gorgeous looks from my curated client closet, each one highlighting her radiant pregnancy glow in a unique way. From flowing gowns to a delicate silk wrap, every detail was perfection. And the best part? We spent the entire session laughing, celebrating, and embracing the joy of this special time.
Her husband was the ultimate hype man, helping with fun dress tosses and creating the dreamiest movement with the silk wrap, making their images feel effortlessly romantic. The connection between them was undeniable, and seeing them share these moments together in my Waxhaw studio was a reminder of why I love being a Charlotte maternity photographer. Maternity sessions are about more than just portraits—they’re about preserving the feeling of this chapter, the excitement of what’s to come, and the love that’s already so strong. I can’t wait for them to look back on these images and remember not just how incredible they looked, but how much fun we had creating them!

Some sessions carry an extra layer of emotion, and this was one of them. This sweet couple booked a Bump to Baby session, ensuring that every step of their journey into parenthood is beautifully documented—from the quiet anticipation of pregnancy to the joy of holding their little one in their arms. Their maternity session felt like the perfect beginning to this story, capturing their deep love, excitement, and the fleeting beauty of this season in their lives.
Nestled within the quiet beauty of a garden stream bed, they embraced the simplicity of the moment. Dressed in soft, neutral tones, they began their session in a setting as peaceful as their connection, letting the gentle sounds of the stream and the warmth of spring surround them. The natural, effortless feel of these images perfectly reflected the quiet joy they share as they wait for their baby’s arrival.
For the second half of their session, mom changed into the dress from her baby shower—a sentimental nod to the love and celebration that has surrounded this little one from the very beginning. As she walked across the garden’s bridges and stood among the flowers, the dress flowed around her, carrying the emotions of this journey in every movement. Dad held her close, his admiration evident in every touch and glance, and together, they shared a tender glimpse into the love that will soon welcome their baby into the world.
This session wasn’t just about capturing beautiful images—it was about telling their story. A story of anticipation, connection, and the beauty of stepping into parenthood together. And with their newborn session still to come, this is only the beginning of the memories they’ll cherish forever.

“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
“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!!!"
Trinity
"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!”
“Tobi was wonderful to work with! She made me feel comfortable, confident, and beautiful during our maternity shoot. She offers several gorgeous gowns and backdrops. Couldn’t be happier with the photos. Such a special way to capture and celebrate my first pregnancy.”
Amber
“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!”
Monet
“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!

I have a handful of hair and makeup artists that I highly recommend. Most will come to your home for your convenience and ensure you are comfortable during your session preparation. If you live outside 30 minutes of the studio and are doing a mommy only studio session you are also welcome to have the artist of your choice come here 1 hour before your session start time - and I am happy to contact one of my preferred artists for you. (hair & make up is typically an additional *200.00 fee)
