Family Session at the SC Botanical Garden in Clemson

Winter in the southeast?

It's not a snowy wonderland.

It's chilly and dreary.

However, (thanks to Lauren) we found our go-to spot for photo sessions.

The SC Botanical Garden is located in Clemson, only a 45 minute drive from the Greenville area.

Instantly upon entering the garden, we were greeted with a diverse range of landscapes for photos, including woods, fields, trails, and even a red train.

We started the session by exploring a wooded area of the garden, taking in the sights and sounds of the natural surroundings. Little Noah loved playing in the crunchy leaves and pinecones.

From there we ventured down a path that wound through areas that were examples of different South Carolina Habitats.

As we walked through the habitats, Noah had a blast running through the trails, finding all of the puddles and rocks possible.

The soft, diffused light from the overcast day gave us a dreamy atmosphere, perfect for capturing this family's love for each other!

As the session came to a close, we made our way to the red train situated near the exit of the Botanical Garden.

They climbed aboard for a little adventure and of course, a few photos.

As photographers, we always look for new and exciting locations for photo sessions. The SC Botanical Garden in Clemson, South Carolina is definitely on our favorites list from now on. The variety of landscapes and the natural beauty of the garden provide endless opportunities for beautiful photos.

Ashton and Lauren: Thank you for the opportunity to capture these beautiful moments of your family together. We absolutely loved spending time with you guys, especially running around to keep up with Noah! We hope that you will treasure this collection of once-in-a-lifetime moments for years to come
