Not much better than one baby, other than two babies! 👶🏼👶🏼

I want to slowly transition to doing more in home sessions, I just know it’s where my heart is, in home newborn specifically, but all in home sessions just feel so different 🥹 being in someone’s home and doing the day to day with them is just 👌🏻 I know that’s the stuff I want to remember and have memories of!

I am so blessed that I have already gotten to do 2 in home twin newborn sessions, and I have one more I get to do in couple weeks! Bring me alllllll the babies!! 🥰

All the little babies and all the little details. 🥹😍 these adorable little babies definitely have not been helping me with being “done” having my own babies 🙃

But a perk of the job certainty is getting to cuddle and hold these precious little babes. ❤️

Just an FYI August is pretty much fully booked and I am booking into Fall now so if you were wondering when the best time to book maternity, newborn, or any other session is, it’s NOW. 🥰

Would you ever guess that there are not one, but TWO babies in that beautiful belly of hers?! 🥹🥰 so excited to meet these sweet little babes! I have been doing so many maternity sessions lately and I am kind of obsessed. When I started photography, I was not sure what kind of photography I wanted to do, it’s surprisingly hard to narrow down! But I have found my passion and it’s near and dear to my heart, capturing motherhood and all its glory is it for me! Mamas carrying their beautiful babies, fresh little newborns and the connection to their families, and then family as they grow and change playing together and loving each other! ☺️

1 picture, cropped 3 different ways. ✨ Taking pictures, knowing how to use your camera, being able to communicate well with clients, styling, those are all important things that go into a session, BUT having the eye to edit artistically with a consistent style, being able to look at an image and see it in multiple ways and know which is the best way to crop/edit is a whole other part of photography. 🥰 I thought I would show you an example so you can see a little glimpse into my mind and how I see an image! On a side note, how incredibly STUNNING is this mama? 😍 like seriouslyyyyy. 🥰 so excited to take pictures of their new addition to their family in the next few weeks! ❤️

The days are long, but the years are short. I heard someone say that today and it hit me like I ran into a brick wall. I actually teared up a bit. The harsh reality that as we push just to make it through the day, they fly by faster and faster. The years have felt SO short lately. Life is flying by right before my eyes just like everyone warned me it would. I am trying to hold on desperately to every little moment and the days sure do feel long, but I can’t believe how fast time is going by.

***Trigger Warning***
I went back and forth about this post, how to write it in a way that gives justice to it, but is still delicate, this picture carries so much weight and emotion. When a picture makes me feel something every time I look at it, I know it has power. This beautiful mama wears a permanent reminder of loss, but has chosen to to show that loss in a beautiful way, the flower tattoo on her arm is the flower of the birth month of the baby she never got to hold. During the session when she said she had a request for a picture and explained it all to me, it was hard not to tear up, not that I am worried about showing emotions in front of people, but also crying in front of someone you just met about a half hour ago feels a bit weird, But man I felt it. Being an empath I feel it allllllll, and every time I look at this picture I feel it all over. Beauty, pain, happiness, grief, love, loss, all wrapped up in one simple little picture. I am so happy I was able to take this picture and that she was vulnerable enough to share this with me as well. Here’s to all the mamas and the babies they never physically held, but hold forever in their hearts. ❤️

During a session we laugh, we play, we take time to connect. It’s not about “everyone look at me and say cheese” it’s about you having so much fun together that I don’t have to say “ say cheese”, you are already laughing and enjoying time together. 🥰
Does that mean every session is laughs and giggles the whole time? Definitely not, as someone who takes a lot of pictures of young kids, we often go through a sea of emotions! And I want to catch them all, because I want you to remember them all. I am all about fostering an environment that creates connection. Sessions are usually a bit (or a lot) chaotic, but the chaos is real, and there is beauty in it! ❤️
