This might be my favorite beach maternity session of all time. Taylor and Ryan were expecting their first, a darling baby girl, and they wanted to capture this new season while visiting family in Delaware. The beach is not only home for them, but it holds so many memories and stories for their relationship. While they now reside in Nashville, the beach is still held close to their hearts and they are so lucky to be able to visit often. So, I couldn’t contain my excitement at the prospect of this wonderful session! We decided on Fenwick Island State Park, and we were blessed with exceptional beach weather. Everything came together perfectly, and thank goodness it did!

If you can’t tell by their faces, they are ecstatic to be parents! Ryan treats Taylor with such love and tenderness, and keeps her laughing nonstop. Their daughter is going to be cherished, and has a wonderful set of parents to guide her.

What a stunning mama!

Now, when I tell you they were down for anything, I mean it! I asked if they’d be okay with getting in the water for the very last few shots, and they didn’t even hesitate!

 

Congratulations Taylor + Ryan! Your baby girl is absolutely precious!
