Fantabulous Fall Family Fun
Posted on November 10, 2011
Charleston is a magical place to live. Conde Nast recently rated Charleston as the top city in the US and the third best travel destination in the world. Yeah, In The World. We have beaches with temperate water, history dripping like moss off the sturdy oaks, world-class cuisine (whether you dine out or cook local produce and seafood at home), sleepy tidal creeks where you can paddle with dolphins or reel in redfish, and one of the largest historic districts in the country. Our easy pace has even been known to inspire non-Southerners to utter “y’all” in the proper context. I dare say the only thing we lack is deciduous trees. In fact, since we can’t count on cooler air arriving by October, my trusty autumn signal is the persistent knocking on the roof as pecans fall from the trees.
That’s one of the reasons this family session was so fun. (Oops, maybe the segway implies this family is nutty, but I was rambling about my fondness for fall.) Obviously the AKF (adorable kid factor) was off the charts, but it was also fun to shoot in a little green space that felt autumnal — like a pumpkin spice latte with plenty of crunchy leaves underfoot.
I have a few spots left if your zany clan needs to bedeck your walls with holiday merriment. Contact me to book your family session.

Meet Ila Gray! What a precious six-month-old girl, and her mom should be the modern-day Ivory girl. Looking at these images, I’m amazed that you cannot really tell it was 100-plus humid degrees. Rebecca and her Charleston baby look flawless, and sweet pea never whimpered. I love the simplicity of Ila Gray’s antique gown and her mom’s dress.
Know anyone with pinchable cheeks or a smattering of freckles who needs their own photo session? Contact Jen before the autumn slots fill up.

I always enjoy capturing the unscripted moments that take place between group poses or as we move from one scene to another, so this session was especially fun. An acquaintance from my Atlanta high school contacted me to take some photos of her clan enjoying the Charleston lifestyle one afternoon at her family’s beach house. Hopefully these moments will help keep summer fresh in their minds as the kids start back to school.
