Charlotte Maternity Photographer / Sunflower Maternity Session

Every maternity photo session at this location is memorable.  It is simply my favorite spot in Charlotte for photos.  This session really stands out because it took place over two days.  Did we plan that?  No.   During one of our gown changes, I set my Nikon D750 with 70-200mm lens attached down on a bench.  Turns out that the bench was a little wobbly and my camera rolled off and hit the ground.  It only fell about 2 feet but that was enough to break the camera.  It wouldn't focus.  Now, I always, always brought a backup camera to sessions .  Except on that day I did not.  I'd never had an occasion where I used my backup and I was bringing so much along with me that I thought I'd make room in my bag and take out the backup.  Murphy's law, right?  Lesson learned.  I'll never take that backup out of my camera bag again.  

On the bright side, those sunflowers were in perfect bloom on that second date so it worked out perfectly!  Heather looked beautiful and they were a fun couple to spend extra time with!
