Stuck on What to Wear? Here's where to shop…
So, you've picked your session date and found your perfect photographer... now comes the hard part: What in the world are you going to wear?! Whether you're pregnant and thinking renting is the way to go, on vacation and wanting to shop locally, or a busy mom who only has time to shop online, I’ve got you. Here is my short list of some of my favorite spots to help you find that outfit you’ll feel confident in for the photos that will soon undoubtably line the halls of your home.
Local Shopping in the Myrtle Beach Area
Let’s start with local! As a small business in a community filled with amazing other small businesses, I can’t say enough good things about our local boutiques. Shopping local not only supports our wonderful community, but it also adds that special coastal charm to your upcoming beach photos. The styles you’ll find here perfectly capture the fun, laid-back vibes of Myrtle Beach, making your photos even more memorable.

Where to Rent a Dress for Your Session
Renting is great for those of us who don’t really foresee ourselves wearing that dress again. A friend of mine recently recommended renting, and she put it simply: she loves buying something new for a special occasion but doesn’t want to store all those dresses she only wore once, nor does she want to pay full price for something she'll only wear once. Honestly, I had never rented a dress before, but she really opened my eyes to how convenient and cost-effective it can be. Her favorite site is Nuuly, in case you were wondering—it's a perfect option for renting trendy, high-quality pieces for any occasion.

Online Shops for Photo-Worthy Outfits
Maybe renting isn’t for you—you’re not quite the return-type, or you’re totally fine with wearing something you love more than once. If that’s the case, these three sites have endless choices that will keep you scrolling for hours and hours. With stunning, photo-ready outfits that are totally worth the investment, you’ll find pieces you can wear for other occasions too. So go ahead, treat yourself to a wardrobe addition you’ll wear again and again
