Exciting news! Doulas are now allowed back at some Ottawa hospitals (although, I am not sure about Pembroke yet. Does anyone know?). This is such an amazing thing for birthing mamas. Having a doula present at your birth can be so beneficial to mama, baby, even dad!

If you are or know a doula, tag yourself or them in the comments. 👇

Dreaming of the days when photographers will be allowed back in hospitals, too! I miss my favourite Fresh 48 sessions!

Looking for a pregnant mother between 24 and 32 weeks gestation and her family to model for a Lifestyle Family Maternity session. This will be a relaxed and comfortable session, celebrating this exciting time of anticipation for you and your family as you await the arrival of your newest addition.

MY GOALS FOR THIS SESSION:
My theme for this session is "Waiting for Baby". I want the session to be comfortable and 'homey.' Just a weekend relaxing at home, cuddling, and preparing for baby's arrival. I intend to shoot the session in a mix of documentary-lifestyle and posed/prompted styles.

DETAILS:
- family must have at least one older sibling (would prefer at least one toddler, between 1-2 years of age)
- session will be done in photos and video
- expect the session to take approximately 1.5 - 2 hours.
- photos and video from session will be used for portfolio and promotional campaigns for Beginnings Photography by Elizabeth McFarlane
- full model release must be signed
- the clothing will be styled - relaxed and comfortable but "put-together"

* As these photos and videos will be used for promoting Beginnings Photography, I would love to photograph a family who loves colour as much as I do, either in their home decor or in the clothing styling.
* Pets very welcome!

WHAT WILL YOU RECEIVE?
- 3-4 minute film of special moments from your session ($400 value)
- approximately 1-minute highlight version of the film for social media use. ($200 value)
- $100 product credit (can be used towards the purchase of any Artwork Collections, Digital Collections, printed products, or digital products)

So, I did a thing and made a fun GIF with my kids. It took us a few tries but Liam loved having the socks dumped on his head and was laughing hysterically.

I'm throwing it back to 2014 on the blog today!

"Sometimes a newborn session just sticks with me. Sometimes baby has a memorable feature. I had a baby girl with the most amazing eyelashes, and a baby boy with such incredible hair, and another baby boy who seemed to be smiling his entire session. Sometimes it’s the name. I have photographed some babies with names that will stick with me for life (both unique ones and classic ones). Sometimes baby makes it memorable, maybe they were a dream to photograph, maybe they pooped on every single one of my blankets and props! Sometimes, I really just click with the parents and we end up friends for years! And sometimes there isn’t really a particular reason that I can pinpoint, but the session and the baby just stay with me."

One of my big photography goals for this year is to get in front of the camera more. Or more specifically, to get in front of the camera with my children more! I'm going to try to do at least two self-portraits per month, so you'll probably be seeing my face a little more often here.

It's really not easy being both the photographer AND the subject. This was hard! But I am so incredibly glad that I did it. I am going to print this one for our wall! One with each of my littles.
P.S. This dress from Joyfolie is now available as part of the Client Closet! Size L - but super versatile and adjustable. Bump-friendly!
