Capturing the nostalgia, chaos, and magic of your story — from beachside families to Lowcountry “I do’s.

Hey, I’m Sydney — the eyes (and heart) behind Moody Momma. I specialize in storytelling photography for couples and families who want more than stiff poses. After years of documenting families and weddings in Northern Virginia and the DMV, my crew and I relocated to the coast. Now based in Myrtle Beach, I also serve Charleston and frequently travel back to NOVA for sessions and events. I’ve never felt more inspired by light, movement, and salty ocean air. Whether you’re wrangling sandy toddlers at sunrise, planning a backyard wedding, or just want the fleeting stuff captured forever — I’m here for the real, raw, beautifully imperfect magic of your story.

Let’s create something magical together in Northern Virginia, Myrtle Beach, Charleston, or wherever your story unfolds!  Click the links for info on sessions in Myrtle Beach and Charleston! 

I'm Sydney

Looking for a Myrtle Beach family photographer who isn’t afraid to get messy with your toddlers in the sand? Planning a Charleston wedding and dreaming of timeless, emotive coverage with a nostalgic twist? Or maybe you’ve worked with me in Northern Virginia and want to reconnect for beach sessions or seasonal minis? Moody Momma serves families and couples throughout the Grand Strand, Lowcountry, and DMV — including Myrtle Beach, North Myrtle, Pawleys Island, Charleston, Mount Pleasant, Loudoun County, Leesburg, and beyond.
