The Mullis Family at their custom marshfront home in Townsend, GA. From their first baby announcement with Kannon to now with two boys, it’s been an honor to document their story and capture these special family memories.

Some traditions just keep getting better every year. The Desko family’s annual picnic at Wright Park in Bluffton is one of those days I look forward to photographing. This year marked my third time capturing their gathering, and it was every bit as joyful as the first.

We met at the iconic fountain in Forsyth Park, a place that’s as full of charm as it is history. The morning light danced off the water, and the park’s oak-lined paths created the perfect backdrop for capturing his curious spirit. Between the greenery, the fountain spray, and his determined little hands gripping every surface he could find, it was pure joy to watch him discover new abilities.

We met at Isle of Hope, a place where she loves to take walks with her dog. The marsh stretched out under the soft evening light, and the gentle breeze made everything feel calm and unhurried. April’s mom joined us too, which made the session even more special—three generations together as they await the arrival of April’s first baby girl.

On a golden South Carolina evening, we met on one of the most picturesque boardwalks at Palmetto Bluff. With the warm sunlight filtering through the trees, laughter bouncing off the wooden rails, and the calm marsh waters below, the setting could not have been more perfect for capturing this beautiful family.
