A rare sighting of the photographer actually being photographed. 😂📸

It's been a while since I've introduced myself around here, so hi! I'm Judy, the gal behind Judy Ann Photography.

I'm a photographer based in the Lowcountry, and while I photograph a little bit of everything, working with small businesses and entrepreneurs has become one of my absolute favorite things.

There's just something really special about getting to know the people behind a business. Hearing how they got started, what keeps them going, and what they're dreaming up next. I love the creative process of taking all those little pieces of someone's personality and story and turning them into images that actually feel like them. And getting to cheer them on along the way? Even better.

A few things about me outside of photography:

I'm a wife and mama to one pretty incredible little girl.

I've always been drawn to creative expression, especially when it comes to personal style. I love art, interesting textures, romantic details, and just about anything with a darker edge. Conveniently, photographers are usually expected to wear black to events, which works out beautifully considering approximately 90% of my wardrobe looks like I'm perpetually attending a funeral. 😂

Coffee is practically a personality trait at this point.

📚 Give me a dark, atmospheric book with a little folklore and I'll happily disappear for a few days.

I am an animal person. I have two dogs and a cat and a bathroom spider.

I love thrifting and giving forgotten things a second life. I'm also convinced every thrift store has at least one treasure waiting for me.

I'm equal parts creative, sentimental, and a little weird (in the best way, obviously).

More than anything, I'm genuinely grateful that this little business of mine allows me to meet so many wonderful people, tell their stories, and be part of things that matter to them.

So whether you've been here for years or just stumbled across my page, I'm really glad you're here. 🖤

And if you're a fellow small business owner, tell me what you do! I always love discovering and supporting other local creatives and entrepreneurs.

Nothing like young love and a moody sky 😍

Just casually crashing the Coastal Dance Academy comp team’s reel after photographing them all day 😂

These dancers are SO much fun. 2026 comp team photos are officially in the books 🖤✨

Me, hauling furniture across the studio because I suddenly have ✨a vision✨

You bring yourself. I’ll handle the posing, the angles, and the occasional chair relocation. 😂

I have been absolutely loving all the newborn lifestyle sessions I've been blessed to capture lately. Here is a peek of a recent one for the sweetest family. My favorite part is all the candid in between moments and little details that change so quickly at this age.

Hilton Head Island gave us the prettiest evening for this sweet maternity session

These two traveled here for a little getaway before baby arrives, and I love that they wanted their pup included in such a special season of their lives too. We spent the evening walking the shoreline, soaking up the last bit of light, and documenting all of those quiet little in-between moments before everything changes in the best way.

And yes, their dog absolutely understood the assignment.

There is something extra special about getting to photograph a family more than once. This sweet crew invited me back to capture another Hilton Head Island vacation, and I loved seeing how much the kids have grown and how beautifully their connection has stayed the same.

Windblown hair, sandy feet, big hugs, and another chapter of memories by the sea. I am always so grateful when families choose me again. 🌊

Big family sessions are always full of the best little moments. I loved watching Grandma and Grandpa jump right in and play with all the littles while everyone just enjoyed being together 🥰

There’s something so special about being invited into a family’s home during those first tender weeks with a new baby. 🤍

These two came into their session with a beautiful vision for what they wanted, but also trusted me completely to bring it all together. They were so relaxed, so present, and just let the morning unfold naturally. Everything flowed so easily and somehow came together perfectly.

We moved through their home, followed the light, loved on their sweet girl, laughed, snuggled, and captured all of those little details that make this season of life theirs.

Nothing felt forced. It was just them, in their home, soaking in this brand new chapter together.

I absolutely adore how this gallery came together. These photos are more than just a glimpse of what their family looked like in this moment. They’re part of their story.

Someday their daughter will be able to look through them and see how tiny she was, what her first home looked like, and just how deeply she was loved from the very beginning.

That’s one of my favorite parts of what I get to do. Creating photographs that aren’t only meant to be loved today, but will be cherished for generations.

We went to and were not disappointed! So many delicious ice cream flavors, soft serve and lots of toppings to choose from. I am so excited that this palce opened up right next to Cinemark! Nothing like grabbing an ice cream after your movie! Theyre open late too (ya know, for Bluffton standards). Go support a local business!! 🍨 🍦
