Winter Golden Hour Family Photos at Furman University

Let this family photo session be your sign that you can get beautiful, colorful, sunny, golden hour family photos even in the middle of winter. These photos were taken on December 22. And they are some of my favorite family photos that I’ve ever taken here in the Greenville, SC area. Arielle really loves the colors and vibrance of spring, but she also really wanted photos of her babies before they get too much bigger. She regretted not getting newborn photos with her youngest, so she didn’t want to wait too long for photos. She asked me to find a spot that would still be green even in the winter. I knew the perfect spot. Furman University has so many beautiful spots that are still beautiful and green in the winter.

This sweet family was my final family session highlight video of 2024. I’m so excited to start focusing even more on session videos in 2025.

Greenville, SC backyard and in home family Christmas photos

I’ve been loving getting to photograph lots of last minute family Christmas photos this year! Jenna, who is a fellow photographer, reached out to me last week hoping to get some last minute family photos before Christmas! Luckily I was able to squeeze her into my schedule last minute! She has a big family with her, her husband, and their six kids! I always love getting to photograph big families. They are so much fun!

Jenna wanted photos of all of them in front of the Christmas tree in their home in Greer, in their back yard, and on their front porch. I love the personalization and the authenticity of in home and backyard family photos! Especially for Christmas photos!

Winter Family Photos at Furman University

I was so excited when Kari found me to photograph and video her sweet family when she was looking for a family photographer and videographer for her winter family photos here in Greenville, South Carolina. She shared with me that these are actually their first family photos with their second daughter! They have lots of family photos with their first daughter before their second was born, but when they bought a new house, they really wanted to decorate the walls of their home with framed photos of all four of them!

Speaking from experience as a mama, I can tell you that you can really feel that something is missing before you get photos on the wall with your newest baby. I know I wanted to get new family photos on my walls as soon as possible after my youngest was born. I didn’t want her to be left out!

We took these photos in the middle of December in freezing cold on a dreary day in December, but they still turned out so beautiful! Kari wore one of the dresses from my client closet! All mamas and babies are welcome to use outfits from my client closet for their newborn or family photos! You can see all of the dress options in my client closet here.

I’ve been wanting to offer videography in addition to photography for newborn sessions for SO long, and I’m so excited to finally start creating newborn videos for my sweet families. While I truly believe in the magic of photos to capture your precious memories, video pulls at the heartstrings and helps you relive the moment in a way that photos just can’t.

You are now able to add video on to any family or newborn session and receive a sweet highlight video like the one below in addition to the photos from your newborn or family session. I’m so excited for you to start experiencing the magic of session videos!

In Home Pregnancy Announcement Photos in Greenville, SC

Julian and Dr. Kristen reached out to me when they were looking for a maternity and newborn photographer for their in home pregnancy announcement photos at their stunning new build home in Simpsonville, SC here in the Greenville, South Carolina area of the Upstate. I loved hearing all about their love story, their recent Cabo destination wedding, and their excitement over their honeymoon baby! I couldn’t be more thrilled to photograph this part of their journey as a family from their pregnancy announcement photos, to their private gender reveal and a gender reveal with their families, and then, of course, their newborn photos once their baby is born!

We took these photos in Kristen and Julian’s beautiful new home that they just built in Simpsonville! The house has a stunning, modern, open concept design with lots and lots of windows. I’m a HUGE fan of all the beautiful natural light in their home. Kristen wore a dress from my favorite online boutique, Worth Collective! So many of the dresses from my client closet are from worth collective! If you need recommendations for where to shop for your family, maternity, or newborn photos, you can see my full outfit planning guide here!

We also included Julian and Kirsten’s two dogs in their pregnancy announcement photos. And of course, we had to take some photos in front of the Christmas tree as well! I can’t wait to photograph this sweet couple next week for their private gender reveal photos! In the mean time, enjoy a few of my favorite photos from their pregnancy announcement photos!
