Your body is changing from moment to moment. From the time you become pregnant, your body feels different every day. Pregnancy is a long 9-month journey, and you experience it - the highs and the lows. But rarely does anyone record it.

Maternity photography is something many mothers invest in to capture that beautiful bump in its glory before her baby comes into the world. It is powerful and a lovely reminder of what your body went through to get to this place. However, for your matrescence journey - recording the reflection of your experience is the first step in defining your matrescence journey. To begin to make sense of this new phase of life for you.

My maternity sessions are more than images of your bump - they are a celebration of everything you have been through in this time, for some even reflecting on past losses and celebrating a rainbow pregnancy. We will sit down and record your pregnancy journey and offer you a calm and inviting space to reflect and process before your big day.

Your birth story is a powerful thing. You went through an experience that can never be matched to any other, nor will be the same for any subsequent pregnancies. Record the story; you won't have any regrets.

Everyone is quick to shift focus on the baby once they arrive. The photos, the videos - and while hormones may have you on a euphoric trip, you too need to remember you birthed a child, and in that, a mother was also birthed.

My newborn photo sessions transcend the typical sweet images - with natural posing, photos of you with and without your beautiful bundle in arms and a recording we make together to give you space and time to reflect on your experience. Recording your birth story and the first few days (or week) depending on when you come in for your session.

You have survived that first year! The days were long, yet the year was fast. To be the bearer of bad news, the days only go faster from here. Pause.

Let’s take this moment to photograph your sweet-cheeked angel before that sweet baby face has forever grown. It has also been a year for you! take this time to reflect and process the year that was all your baby’s changes but, just as importantly your own growth.

My one year sessions will feature natural posing photos of your baby, you and together - this is a time to celebrate you both! And as always a recording session with them to encapsulate this time forever.

You can purchase just one of these sessions. However, I strongly recommend buying a package of all three, where I will publish a beautiful book for you with three chapters of photos and audio embedded at the beginning of each chapter, enhancing your reflections while fondly gazing at your images. Understand more about the Experience here.

Investing in all three will provide you with beautiful processing space of this wild transition into motherhood - a sacred and little spoken about time for all parents.
