When Chloe and Shawn reached out to book their maternity photography session with me during their babymoon getaway from Texas, I knew we were in for something special. The couple had already taken several professional portraits in the past, but this session—celebrating the upcoming arrival of their baby boy—held a uniquely emotional weight.

They found out the baby’s gender at a recent reveal and were overjoyed to learn it was a boy, something they had both hoped for. And while Florida’s unpredictable summer weather had us wondering whether the session would need to be rescheduled, Chloe and Shawn chose to go ahead—and I’m so glad they did. The skies may have rained on us briefly, but the results? Absolutely lovely.

Why the Beach Was the Perfect Backdrop for This Babymoon Photography Session

Chloe mentioned how she and her husband are both “water babies” who hold a special love for the ocean. That made Fort Lauderdale Beach the perfect location for their shoot. We focused more on capturing intimate, connected moments along the water’s edge, rather than relying solely on land-based coastal scenery.

They brought two outfit changes that worked beautifully with the soft light, cloudy skies, and motion of the sea. The mood was romantic, grounded, and joy-filled—exactly the kind of energy that defines a maternity portrait session.

The Perks of Booking a Local Photographer for Your Babymoon

Planning a babymoon in South Florida? Booking a Fort Lauderdale photographer ahead of time is a great way to turn your vacation into something even more memorable.

When you hire a local photographer:

  • You get a built-in activity to look forward to as part of your trip
  • You’ll receive high-quality images to celebrate this unique stage of life
  • You can relax knowing someone knows the best local spots, lighting, and timing—even with unpredictable weather

Chloe summed it up best in her kind review after receiving her final gallery:

“10 out of 10. Would use her for every photo shoot if we lived in Florida… Her personality is so sweet, and she was such a joy to work with… I literally love every single photo she produced which is a huge deal. You don’t get that with all photographers.”
