Breastfeeding Mamas, I have a question.

I am nearly 14 months into breastfeeding my 2nd born and I have started to think about stopping. But I have no idea how?!

My milk dried up during pregnancy, so my firstborn had to stop at around the same age.

Any tips? 👀🫶

You take all of the photos - but who is taking yours?

My phone storage is running out of space from photos of the girls or selfies of the 3 of us.

My partner’s phone? He has barely filled 1/4 of his storage 😂 but he did take a photo of us the other day 🎉

I started motherhood sessions for you. The Mum’s who have a never ending jobs list. Who wake up in the morning and meet someone else’s need before you’ve worked out what day it is. Motherhood is hard and we often think about ourselves last.

So be in the frame. For them, for you, for the story you’re living right now.

You don’t need to “get your body back.”
It never left. It just evolved.

Like so many Mums, she was learning to accept her postpartum body. She was nervous to bare herself in front of the camera, but she did it anyway.

And afterwards, she said…

“I could cry at those photos. I love myself in them too.
I think I look beautiful!! And I’ve not felt that for a long time. Thank you so much.”

These moments matter.
Being seen matters.
You matter — exactly as you are.

This is for you if you want photos that feel real and not staged.

We spent the afternoon running, laughing, and letting the girls just be themselves. No pressure to pose. No “stand here and smile.” Just moments that unfolded naturally.

And the results…photos that feel like them. With Mum right there in the frame, making memories too.

Sometimes the simplest things are the most precious.

Intimate motherhood sessions will always pull at my heart. A chance for you to slow down, shut out the world, and celebrate your journey. Your strength, your body, your story - every detail matters.

Truth is…I always disliked my body and appearance. Ribs stuck out. B**b job consultations. Acne. 5”1.

But it wasn’t until I fell pregnant that I realised how amazing my body is. It has grown and nurtured 2 beautiful girls, and I am still breastfeeding now. I am in awe of it! And I love celebrating it.

Every time I see a weeping willow, I think of my grandad.
He had one in his garden. It was our little hideaway.

He passed away when I was seven and that tree is one of the only memory I have of him. Maybe that’s why willows have always felt special to me — a reminder that places can hold love and stories.

Photographing motherhood under a willow will always feel extra special.

5 strangers, 1 sunset.

We had the best time in that field! These ladies were amazing to work with - we laughed, shared stories, and left as friends 💕

Thanks for trusting me to capture your breastfeeding journey, it means a lot x

It’s always the little things, isn’t it?
The way their tiny hands hold on tight, the curiosity in their eyes when they discover something new. These are the everyday moments that feel small at the time but end up meaning the most.

My youngest turns 1 in a few days and I am not ready. I held her for 2 months because she hated me being out of reach, let alone out of sight. I was her safe place, snuggled into my shoulder when the world felt too big.

And now she is off chasing her sister, laughing and trying to keep up! I am so excited about what is to come for her, my strong Irish girl. But I already miss the little details of our first year together.
