The February 2020 luncheon (pre-Covid) presented by the Women’s Council lived up to previous expectations. Documenting Charleston events where style drapes from the tent, florals are here, there and everywhere, food is an art and belly delight along with humorous and extremely talented guest speakers is par for the course at the Art of Design Luncheon.

We had planned for a Folly Beach maternity session with these two, but we regrouped to James Island County Park due to high winds. James Island County Park has lush green areas, more neutral marsh spots, draping moss, a few wood bridges, floating docks and dog friendly.

So many milestones and celebrations were postponed, paused or cancelled during 2020. These sisters b’ not mitzvah was postponed. While technology allowed friends and family to witness their rite of passage in the synagogue, their party did not happen.

Weaving in a variety of backgrounds into your annual family beach session is always welcome.

If you have a rental or family vacation home with cool walkways, paint colors or stairs; it makes for great contrast to the beach and a wind free spot to begin. Walkways and beach paths are the next stop for green surrounding and great light.
