Documenting the journey Of motherhood.

Documenting motherhood, is one of my favorite ways to celebrate precious moments in our life.

As mothers, we experience a plethora of emotions and milestones that are worth capturing and remembering forever.

From the first ultrasound to the first steps, every moment is precious and deserves to be documented. With this beautiful miracle comes some of life’s biggest changes, and honestly they go by too fast.

I’ve heard so many times “ time is a thief “. And in motherhood it truly is.

Motherhood sessions are a beautiful way to connect with our significant other, your baby, and your own body, during this transformative time in your life.

There are many ways to document motherhood, obviously as a photographer my favorite is to take photos and videos capturing the little moments that make up your journey.

Motherhood session milestones to consider a session for:

This is an exciting time in your life and one that should be celebrated. Sharing the news with your family and friends can be a special moment for everyone involved. These sessions are typically scheduled during the second trimester (14 weeks to 20 weeks is ideal)

Maternity photos

Maternity photos are a beautiful way to capture the anticipation and joy of bringing a new life into the world. Don't forget to include your partner or other children in the photos to make it a special. These sessions are typically scheduled between 32-36 weeks.

Birth photos can be a beautiful and meaningful way to commemorate the life-changing experience of giving birth.They can capture the raw emotions of the parents, the incredible strength of the laboring mother, and the first precious moments of a newborn's life. Typically requires and on call photographer and happens around 36-38 weeks or when baby decides it’s time) 😉

Fresh 48 Photos

Fresh 48 photos are a type of photography session that captures the first 48 hours of a newborn's life. These sessions typically take place in the hospital or place of birth, and aim to capture the intimate, raw moments that occur during this time.

Breastfeeding photos

Breastfeeding is a natural and beautiful way to nourish and connect with your child. This kind of session can serve as a strong symbol of empowerment, strength & femininity for mothers. These sessions are typically scheduled any time during your breastfeeding journey.

Family photos

During my family sessions, I love focusing on mom. From tender moments of mom with each child, mom and dad together and the family connections and interactions, I love to make her feel special. Mom is typically behind the camera for photos and I love letting her be the center of the attention during family sessions. What a better way to celebrate motherhood than to have a session with the family you created.

Celebrate Motherhood

No matter how or when you choose to document motherhood, it's a wonderful way to celebrate the love and joy that comes with being a mother.

Capturing these moments allows you to reflect on your experiences and appreciate the unique journey that you're on.

So, please take some time to capture those special moments and memories, and create a lasting tribute to the beauty of motherhood.
