Hi There,

Hi I’m Abby and I am a Wilmington family and maternity photographer. My style is cinematic, unscripted and family forward. I believe family and motherhood in particular is the hardest and most beautiful part of this life. Capturing you and your family is a privilege that I do not take lightly and I am honored to be able to freeze these moments in time. As a mother myself, you can trust that no toddler meltdown is too big and no worry or concern is too small.

My approach to photography is rooted in ease, creating a space where you can simply show up, be yourself, and enjoy the moment. Sessions are intentionally relaxed, with gentle guidance that never feels forced, allowing natural connection and genuine emotion to take the lead.

The result is a collection of images that feel as good as the experience itself: easy, authentic, and undeniably beautiful.

“Abby is doing some sort of magic behind that camera. Her photos are so natural and beautiful! I would highly recommend her not only for the photos you’ll get in the end, but to work with Abby because she is so easy going and makes you feel so comfortable!”

A family of three, including a woman, a man, and a young girl, standing on a beach with the ocean behind them. The woman is holding the girl, who is wearing a blue and white checkered dress and a large white bow on her head. The man is wearing a blue shirt and white shorts. They are smiling and looking at each other.

Abby was so wonderful to work with! We had a really small timeline to be able to get family photos at the beach. With three different families (including 2 babies), Abby was so flexible and easy to work with! The photos turned out beautiful! We have already printed many out and hung them all over our home.
