Myrtle Beach Maternity Photography

For the past few years, the beginning of our year has been filled with a consistent flow of maternity photoshoots! This beautiful flow in our business, as photographers in Myrtle Beach, reminds us that things are always birthing, internally and externally; it's a reminder that life is a dance of returning.

The Nudges of the New Year

The New Year and progressive arrival of Spring offer us a physical call to action to prepare for what is coming into our lives, the challenges and beautiful aspects that come with birthing something new, whether it's a growing family, a business, a relationship, or a way of living. It all takes intention, awareness, consistency, and care; it takes sacrifice.

Before we embody the full experience of a new year, this is a perfect time to "nest" and prepare for what's to come in the most compassionate and thoughtful way.

The New Year isn't meant to illicit rush and anxiousness; instead, it's meant to inspire mindful preparation; to develop the moves that cultivate ease, progress, and joy; to dance in the moment, and rehearse the steps for success.

Our photoshoots offer beautiful pauses for couples, families, and individuals to cultivate that special time to go inward, to connect deeper, and anchor into the present, so that the future is even more fruitful.

Some of my favorite moments of a photoshoot are witnessing the nervousness and feeling to "look perfect" melt away, and clients rebirthing beautifully into presence, into deep connection, and enjoying the fullness of what births a pause in time.

The Best Part of Dancing is in The Doing

Taking steps together in gratitude, breathing in each other's air, and dancing with the textured feeling of warm (sometimes cold) sand underneath their toes. It all reminds me that true wealth, joy, and success are in the present.

Over the last 10 years, we've hosted Vision Board Parties, New Year Planning Strategy Sessions, and Family Vision Parties. The wisdom that has developed over this last decade is balance, to remember that the dance of life requires preparation and ACTION. We don't birth a better life by reading or just learning about it. It happens when we live it! With the popularity of how-to videos, and a vast ocean of classes, workshops, and e-books out there, this year, whatever it is that you're heart is desiring, I emplore you to just do it. You've likely researched it enough, and reflected on it plenty. The power is truly in the doing; driver's seat experience.

Dancing into 2026

So my dearest sweet friend, have a plan, but remember that the best part of dancing is the experience of it, not reading about it, studying it, but waving your hands in the air, swaying your hips, sweating it out like it's 1999, and surrendering to the power of the present!

May you birth your most beautiful year yet. Honoring the wisdom and lessons of the highs and the lows, but staying on the dance floor and finding your rhythm through the waves and variation of melodies.

Happy Dancing loves!
