Jon and Molly’s candid maternity session in Nashville nothing short of a joy-filled adventure. Set in the woods and along the peaceful water’s edge, the session was full of genuine laughter, sweet moments, and just the right amount of chaos that comes with wandering through nature—bug spray and all. From the very beginning, their easy connection made the entire experience feel less like a photo shoot and more like spending time with old friends. Every glance, smile, and burst of laughter was effortlessly real, the kind of magic that makes a candid maternity session in Nashville so special.
As they prepare to welcome their little one and count down the days to their wedding at the end of the year, the love and excitement between them was impossible to miss. You can tell they don’t take themselves too seriously—which made everything feel natural, spontaneous, and honestly, just plain fun. We roamed through sun-dappled trees, stopped to soak in the calmness of the water, and took our time enjoying the surroundings. Their comfort with each other made capturing beautiful moments effortless.
We wrapped up the day at golden hour, with soft, glowing light spilling through the trees and reflecting off the water. Jon and Molly snuggled close by the shore, laughing and soaking in the moment, as the sky put on a show just for them. It was the perfect ending to a session that was equal parts playful, peaceful, and heartfelt. These two are in such a beautiful season of life—expecting a baby, planning a wedding, and clearly loving every second of it. I feel so lucky to have captured this chapter for them, and I can’t wait to document their wedding day later this year—it’s going to be something truly special. Until then I’ll just be over here swooning over these images.
