A few months ago, I was sitting in the rocking chair with my youngest daughter, Emmersyn. As I was reading her ‘Goodnight Gorilla’ for the 3rd time in a row, I thought about how even though I was tired of reading this over and over, there would come a day (probably very soon) that she would not want to hear it again. In that moment, I wished someone was nearby to snap a photo of us together right then and there.
So often I find myself wishing I could keep all of these moments stored in my memory forever. I began thinking about how as moms we are always in the thick of it and those day to day moments slip by so easily. They also leave our memories faster than we’d like. We want to remember so we think we will…but I’ve found that these little details fade quickly and are replaced by new ones only to be replaced by even newer ones. And so it goes. So I decided that I could take these feelings of time going too quickly and turn them into a gift for other mothers who also experience this.
The motherhood session were birthed (definitely pun intended) out of a NEED for me to help capture these fleeting moments and to show moms how beautiful they are...right now, today, in those clothes you already have on and are comfortable in. The point is to document your life as a mother and the sweet moments with your children that you enjoy each day but that often go unnoticed. I want to get YOU in the same frame WITH your beautiful children so that you have photos to look back on in 20 years. This is a gift for your future self and for your children…they will want to look back with you and see all of the silliness, the sweetness and the love that you so clearly have for them.
By now you may be wondering if this is right for you. You may be thinking about how you might not have the right clothes, or you may not be feeling photogenic or you just need to lose a few more pounds or get your hair done… and mama, I’m here to tell you, that’s just not true. You are enough just the way you are right now. You are beautiful, you are strong and you are a damn good mom. I promise you your children ONLY see beauty when they look at you and I want to show you that too!
Come on this journey with me. This is your life and it’s so freaking beautiful.
What to expect at the Motherhood Sessions 4/14/19:
I’ve created a comfortable and inviting space for you and your children to just be. No pressure to look at the camera, no posing or stressful moments. Let me capture you as you are right now… in these 30 minute “come as you are sessions” we will play, cuddle, read stories, have tickle fights, jump on the bed, eat snacks, dance, giggle, cry...whatever comes up! I’ll be there to document it all.
Before the session, I will send you a questionnaire to get to know your family better and give you ideas for making these sessions extra personalized. I will encourage you to bring along favorite books, toys or comfort items…I want to document those uniquely special details of your family.
And because I want you to enjoy these photos right away, I am gifting you a set of 10 4x6 everyday prints or 1 8x10 canvas wall print with all sessions booked by 4/1/19.
