Senior Pictures, Folly Beach

How mother AND daughter agreed on MCG Photography for senior pictures!

We are always curious how clients find us. Julie (aka. Abby’s mom) shared that she made a list of photographers for Abby to pick from for her senior pictures. Abby looked through the websites and went with us. She selected Folly Beach as her location and crafted her look with two different outfits. Folly Beach Pier has gorgeous lines and stunning backlight along with grasses for various texture other than the sand and surf.

She was authentically not super smiley, but there were gentle smiles of deep contentment. I think sometimes as a photographer, it is a default mode to except a full toothy smile that moms often really, really want. And it is a gift to everyone to hold space for being and expressing themselves in a way that feels natural.

I had asked Julie (mom) for some Abby traits to get a sense of her and her mom’s eye view. “One of Abby’s best qualities is she tells you how it is…. no matter what, and she truly has a heart of gold!” Abby’s confidence, composure and warmth definitely illustrated her mom’s description.

We would love the opportunity to photograph your senior, tween or teen and discover their uniqueness!
