a warm winter maternity session in greenwich, ct

Whenever clients book me for outdoor sessions at the beach in the middle of winter, I have to admit I am crossing my fingers and checking the weather for weeks leading up to it. The weather is just very unpredictable in Connecticut in January...and though I think winter is a gorgeous time for outdoor photos, I do not enjoy subjecting pregnant mamas to extreme temperatures or weather! I try to set expectations of that unpredictability of this time of year and usually set it up so it's half at home, half at an outdoor location in case we need to adjust. Well, on January 21st we we're particularly lucky with the extreme temperatures in Fairfield County...it was nearly 50 degrees! We met at Steve & Becca's home and then headed to the beach. Big bro Ringo (the black lab) was particularly happy with the location and the weather!
