Her email came a couple of months ago, asking about whether or not I’d be available for travel to Charleston, South Carolina for an anniversary  session. And she signed off with a fun note- “If you’re gone in Europe, I may just have to follow you over there!”

Lol. NO BUT SERIOUSLY.

And by some stroke of luck on my behalf, it happened! Zach & Lindsay had been planning for a getaway before their little one arrives, and they both fell in love with Italy together during a trip a few years ago. So instead of Charleston, they headed to Chianti, Italy, where we had the Anniversary Experience session of the century! The rolling hills of Tuscany and Il Borgo di Vescine as our backdrop and an adorable vintage Fiat to boot, this was a dream come true. I’d had the joy of photographing their love once before in the fall of 2013 (remember this session?), so to be able to document their lives again during the beginning of a new chapter, it was utterly perfect!

Zach & Lindsay, I cannot thank you enough for coming all the way out to Italy for this! Your love is so sweet and so familiar that photographing you together is easier than should be allowed, and I’m so grateful you trusted me with these images, with your time and your comfort. I wouldn’t trade this experience for anything, including the bit where we all squished into the world’s tiniest car together! So much love to you both!

  18. Nicole Regan says:

    Oh my goodness these are absolutely breathtaking!!!! Wow!

  19. […] a cooking class, and sat in the sun.  We got all dolled up and met the FABULOUS Abby Grace for our maternity anniversary session and I know I’m biased but I kind of think they’re the most epic maternity pictures […]

  20. Rici says:

    BELLISSIMOOOOO!! ABBY! I love it so very much! Like every picture!

  21. […] it all came together so perfectly.  Seriously, it couldn’t have been better. And Abby did SUCH a great job, it just feels like these images deserve one last blog […]

  22. Ravyn says:

    ABBY!!! These are absolutely stunning. I am currently working with Zach on branding his business … he was telling me about his trip, and forwarded the session to me. While I don’t get to work with many of my clients in person (sadly, Zach is across the country), these photos make up for it. I feel like I know them so much more!! You captured so much beauty, and such an important part of their story!
