Chic architecture, soft light, and a navy dress with a story to tell
A Dramatic Maternity Session on Iconic Worth Avenue
From the moment Cathy stepped out in her flowing navy maternity gown, I knew this session would be something special. The dramatic train of her dress, paired with the elegant Mediterranean-inspired architecture of Worth Avenue on Palm Beach Island, made for a timeless maternity session filled with elegance and anticipation.
Cathy and Bobby are expecting their first baby—a boy—and wanted photos that felt both elevated and sentimental. They chose Worth Avenue for its historic charm, palm-lined walkways, and neutral stone textures that pop beautifully in photos.
Why We Chose a Weekday for This Session
Worth Avenue is a popular photo location in Palm Beach, especially for engagements, weddings, and maternity portraits. But we planned this session on a weekday morning, when the streets were quiet and the light was soft. That decision made all the difference—it gave us space to move, pose, and create magic without feeling rushed or crowded.
A Dress That Deserved Its Moment
Cathy’s navy dress flowed effortlessly through the corridors, the long train catching the breeze with every step. It was elegant, a little bold, and full of movement—everything a maternity gown should be. And it looked stunning against the soft neutral palette of Worth Avenue.
Bobby was calm and supportive the whole time, smiling at Cathy like he already knew she was going to be the best mom. The connection between them made this session not just beautiful to photograph—but meaningful.
