Documenting the stages of motherhood

maternity to birth to newborn


Whenever I get the opportunity to document all the stages of motherhood, especially after the family has experienced a loss, is such an honor. There's nothing like looking back at these moments to realize you can't take back time.

As I remember back to my own two births, I actually don't remember many of the details. I wish I would have invested in a photographer, so that I would have these moments to look back on. The experience is intense and painful, your body created a human that you deliver into this world. It's absolutely amazing and the last thing you're thinking about is whether someone is remembering to take pictures.

I'd love to document this moment in your life. I've never had a family member regret this investment. Your baby only stays little for so long. I do my very best at providing you with a large gallery of detailed images of your family. I want to give you all those sweet moments as you share this beautiful blessing together. I'll leave you with a few images from our newborn session below.
