How to plan a summer maternity session in South Florida without melting
A Serene Summer Maternity Session at Kai-Kai Farm
There’s something so peaceful about photographing a maternity session in the early morning—the soft light, the quiet calm, and the fresh start to the day. That’s exactly what we captured with Kelli and Jason’s maternity session at Kai-Kai Farm, just outside of Indiantown, Florida.
Set on over 40 acres of working farmland, Kai-Kai Farm is known for its wide open skies, blooming gardens, and peaceful, natural backdrops—making it the perfect location for a maternity session with a soft, romantic feel.
Why We Chose Kai-Kai Farm for This Maternity Session
Kelli and Jason are expecting a baby girl this fall, and they wanted photos that felt natural, joyful, and full of life. Kai-Kai Farm’s open fields and rustic charm gave us space to explore and create photos that felt timeless and organic—without the need for a lot of props or distraction. Plus, this happens to be where they got married two years before, which made it all the more special.
If you’ve never been, Kai-Kai offers:
- Rows of seasonal crops and flowers
- Tall grass meadows and tree-lined walkways
- That unbeatable South Florida golden light in the early hours
How We Beat the Summer Heat in South Florida
Let’s be real: South Florida summers are hot. But with some thoughtful planning, we were able to avoid the heat entirely.
We reserved Kai-Kai Farm in the early morning, just after sunrise. This gave us:
- Cooler temperatures
- Soft, even lighting (no harsh shadows!)
- A quiet, peaceful space before the day got busy
If you’re planning a maternity session in South Florida during summer, early morning is your best friend—especially if you’re later in pregnancy and want to stay comfortable.
A Few Favorite Moments with Kelli & Jason
- Kelli’s smile when Jason whispered something that made her laugh
- The moment they paused to pray together with their hands over her belly
- Their excitement talking about the nursery they’re setting up for their baby girl
It’s sessions like this one—simple, meaningful, and full of anticipation—that remind me why I love photographing growing families.
