From Bumps to Babies: A Beautiful Journey with the Fleming Family
Capturing the journey from pregnancy to welcoming a new baby is one of the most special experiences we get to be a part of. Recently, we had the absolute joy of photographing the Fleming family—starting with a stunning maternity session and then, a few weeks later, celebrating the arrival of their sweet baby girl! We also had the pleasure of capturing Big Brother’s newborn photos two years ago, so it was extra special to have them back in the studio. We love when our clients return to us as their family grows—it’s truly an honor to document these precious milestones!
The Maternity Session: Elegance, Style, and Family Love
For this maternity session, Mom had three breathtaking looks, each one capturing a different side of her beauty and personality. First, she radiated pure elegance in a long, flowing white ruffled gown—an ethereal vision of motherhood. Then, she switched things up with a bold, sophisticated black bodysuit and a stylish matching hat, giving off major fashion-forward vibes. Finally, we wrapped up with a timeless and casual family look: mom in a classic white top and jeans, joined by Dad and their adorable 2-year-old son, the soon-to-be big brother! Watching this little guy interact with his mama’s baby bump was beyond precious—his excitement was truly contagious!
The Newborn Session: Welcome Baby Girl!
And then… she arrived! Their beautiful baby girl made her debut, and we couldn’t wait to capture her first official portraits. We went all out with girly, dreamy setups—because why not? First, she snuggled up in an adorable vintage suitcase, surrounded by delicate flowers and the softest stuffed animals. Then, we brought out some of our favorite props: a whimsical hot air balloon setup and a tiny pink car, both accented in pink and purple for the ultimate girly-girl vibe.
Once we wrapped up all the fun, themed setups, it was time for classic family portraits. Mom, Dad, and Big Brother joined in for simple yet heartfelt images, capturing the love and excitement of their growing family. Big Brother was SO thrilled to be by his baby sister’s side—his sweet smiles and gentle snuggles melted our hearts! And baby girl? She was an absolute dream, making our job so easy with her peaceful, sleepy poses.
A Look Back: Big Brother’s Newborn Session
Before we wrap up, let’s take a quick trip down memory lane! Two years ago, we had the pleasure of capturing Big Brother’s newborn moments, and now he’s back in the studio as a proud big sibling. Watching him grow and seeing his excitement for his little sister has been such a joy!

A Groovy & Boho Milestone: Celebrating Two Years in Style
There’s nothing better than watching little ones grow—especially when we get to capture their milestones along the way! We recently had the joy of photographing a sweet two-year-old for her milestone session, and this wasn’t our first time working with her family. We also did her one-year cake smash, so it was extra special to see her back in front of our camera!
For this session, Mom had a vision, and we were all in! She brought the funk with a retro-inspired setup, complete with a groovy backdrop she found herself. Think bold colors, funky vibes, and a whole lot of personality—perfect for this spunky two-year-old!
But we didn’t stop there. We switched things up for a second look, going full-on boho with a dreamy teepee setup. Soft neutrals, cozy textures, and a free-spirited feel made for the perfect contrast to the retro fun.
If you’ve ever met a two-year-old, you know they don’t sit still for long! These milestone sessions are all about being quick on our feet and ready to capture those perfect moments as they happen. And let’s just say, this little one kept us on our toes in the best way!
Do you have a milestone session in mind? Whether you’re dreaming up something funky, boho, or totally unique, we’d love to bring your vision to life. Let’s make it happen!
Capturing the Glow: Stunning Maternity Photos to Celebrate Spring’s Natural Beauty
There’s something undeniably magical about the spring season. The days grow longer, the flowers bloom, and the world seems to come alive again. For expectant mothers, spring is the perfect backdrop to capture the beauty and anticipation of pregnancy in a way that feels both fresh and natural. If you’re considering maternity photos, there’s no better time than spring to take them outdoors.
Here’s why spring is the ideal season for maternity photos and how to make the most of the season's beauty for your photoshoot.
The Natural Beauty of Spring Sets a Stunning Backdrop
Spring offers an abundance of natural beauty that simply can’t be replicated indoors. From lush green fields to blooming gardens, every corner of nature is coming alive with vibrant colors and delicate textures. These settings can create an effortlessly beautiful backdrop for your maternity photos.
Think about fields of wildflowers in soft pinks, yellows, or purples, or tree-lined paths with fresh blossoms overhead. You can also consider a serene park with open meadows or even a quiet lakeside setting. The best part is that the spring elements—like soft greens, delicate flowers, and even a hint of dew on leaves—are naturally soft and light, which complements the glow of pregnancy.
Soft, Natural Light for Dreamy Photos
One of the greatest advantages of spring is the light. The gentle sunlight during this season creates a soft, glowing effect that’s perfect for photography. During the spring months, the sun isn’t as harsh as in the summer, and it sets at a more ideal time for “golden hour” photos—the period shortly before sunset when the light is warm, soft, and flattering.
The diffused light on an overcast day also creates a dreamy, serene atmosphere that highlights the natural beauty of both the environment and the expectant mother. These lighting conditions are ideal for capturing intimate, warm images that showcase the connection between you, your partner, and your growing baby.
The Serenity of Being Outdoors
Being outside in nature often brings a sense of calm and peace. For many expecting mothers, the serene beauty of spring provides a perfect opportunity to connect with the pregnancy journey. The gentle sounds of birds chirping, the fresh air, and the quiet beauty of the natural surroundings help create an atmosphere of relaxation, making the photoshoot feel more personal and meaningful.
There’s a certain tranquility that outdoor shoots bring to maternity photography, allowing you to embrace the moment and feel at ease. You can walk barefoot in the grass, take a deep breath of fresh air, or simply take in the beauty of the environment around you, all of which will be reflected in the relaxed, natural vibe of the photos.

Located in Southeast Charlotte, NC, our private studio is equipped with everything you need to bring your vision to life, including a variety of props, backgrounds, and maternity dresses.
A Customized Styling Experience with Priscilla : Maternity Version
A big stressor for expecting moms planning a maternity session is figuring out what to wear in the first place, the cost involved in finding a dress, shipping costs, etc. With us, you don’t have to worry about gown shopping!
Our studio offers a curated collection of over 60 couture maternity gowns and dresses in a variety of sizes to fit every body type. Whether you want something long and flowy, fitted, ruffled, sheer, silk, chiffon, pearl-adorned, two-piece, tulle, lace, or even a dramatic robe, we have it all. Our collection includes gowns in every color, so we can create a look that perfectly complements your vision.
During your personalized styling consultation, Priscilla will help you select the perfect dress and accessories to match your style and session theme. You can browse many of our available dresses on our website here: Priscilla Green Photography Studio Dresses.
Beyond gowns, we also provide guidance on makeup, hair, and set design, ensuring every detail is planned to perfection. Whether you have a specific vision from Pinterest or just a color scheme in mind, we’ll work together to create a unique and stunning look that reflects you. We also have several makeup and hair stylists we can refer if you prefer that route.
Safety and Comfort with Newborn Photography
When it comes to newborn photography, safety is our top priority. Posing infants is an art, and it's essential to always listen to the baby and follow their cues. While you may see stunning, posed photos online, the reality is that babies will only go into a pose they’re comfortable with—and they’ll let you know if they’re not!
Priscilla takes the time to work with each baby gently, ensuring that their comfort and safety come first. Each session is handled with the utmost care, giving parents peace of mind that their little one is in good hands. Our studio, props, dresses, set ups, are completely sanitized before and after each session.
Milestone Photography: Capturing the Big Moments
Milestone photography is one of the most special aspects of our studio, and we love celebrating every little moment. Whether it’s your baby’s first birthday or a major milestone, we work with you to create a custom set-up that perfectly captures this moment in time.
Our one-year cake smash sessions are particularly popular—each set is designed with care, and we can even order custom cakes, balloons, and décor to match your vision.
If you have something specific in mind, like a unique color scheme or custom backdrop, we’re happy to accommodate! Many of our sets are custom-designed to fit the specific desires of our clients, from selecting the perfect props to creating a one-of-a-kind scene. We’ve even ordered special backdrops to capture that perfect linen look or a theme that’s close to a parent’s heart. We’re here to make your milestone moments unforgettable.
A Comfortable and Clean Studio Experience
Our studio is designed to ensure you feel relaxed, confident, and safe. We sanitize the space before and after every session, offering a clean, comfortable environment for you and your family. Whether you're preparing for a maternity, newborn, baby milestone, or first-year cake smash session, we have everything needed to make your experience seamless and stress-free.
Lasting Memories, Timeless Artwork
When you choose Priscilla Green Photography, you’re investing in lasting memories. After your session, we’ll help you choose the perfect photographic artwork to display at home, ensuring that your images not only capture the moment but also fit beautifully in your space. From canvas prints to framed photos, we’ll guide you through selecting pieces you’ll cherish for years.
Let’s work together to capture this beautiful chapter of your life.

Welcoming Sweet Baby Girl: A Session Full of Love and Lavender
There’s something so magical about a family welcoming their newest addition, and this in-studio newborn session was no exception! Baby girl stole the show, decked out in the prettiest shades of purples and pinks, with delicate bows and floral accents adding the perfect touches.
One of the highlights? The *cutest* spa setup Mom envisioned! From the tiny robe to the plush towel backdrop, made complete with a mini laptop and Starbucks coffee - it was pure Pinterest-worthy perfection. It added such a fun, playful vibe to the session, and baby girl looked as relaxed as ever. The family will cherish those photos for many years to come.
This family was such a joy to photograph. Their excitement and love for their newest addition were so infectious, and you could see the happiness radiating in their eyes. The parents were so proud, with every moment filled with joy and laughs that made capturing their story even more special.
We kept the rest of the session classic and timeless, featuring simple wraps and cherished props. The antique white heart bowl—one of our studio’s favorites—was adorned with soft blankets in lavender and blush tones. Baby girl, swaddled in a silky pink wrap tied into a delicate bow, looked like a living gift of love.
This session was overflowing with love, laughter, and sweet details, and we couldn’t be happier for this beautiful family as they embark on this new chapter. Congratulations to the proud parents and their precious little bundle! 💜🎀
