Dreamy Maternity Portraits amongst the Southern Oaks – The Hart Family

Motherhood is an amazing miracle!  Mom is glowing and excited, Dad is patiently waiting to meet their new little one, and in the case of the Hart Family, Lyla just can’t wait to meet her new baby sister!  She didn’t have to wait long.

When Jennifer called and asked about Maternity/Family photos I was completely excited!!!  It’s very gratifying to have someone in your industry commission you to do work for them.  To have another artist look at your work and say “I would like to have some of that on my wall thank you!” it really kind of puts you on cloud 9.  Kind of like when Pasha Belman of Pasha Belman Photography had me photograph his family last year, I was honored!  What’s great about when another artist hires you, they usually have a good idea of what they are looking for but they usually relinquish creative control to you because they know that an artist works best when they are not micromanaged.  I will admit, I do work best when I work with someone and they just hand it all over to me.  My brain works better that way!

It was an amazing shoot!  The weather was perfect, Wachesaw Plantation was the perfect backdrop, and the flowers were in full bloom!  Mom, being an artist and photographer, had a good idea of how she wanted these last images of their family of 3 to look.  She herself made the adorable flower crowns for her and her daughter, who of course absolutely refused to wear them.  Thomas, the amazing videographer of Hart to Heart Media, wore his signature stylish hat.  Her dress from SilkFairies was just beautiful on her.  She really glowed!

Sawyer Rhodes was born last week and the family is over the moon.  I can’t wait to meet her!
