Motherhood.
I wish more moms realized just how important it is to get in the pictures with their kids. And listenā¦ I get it. I really do.
My personal goal this year is to be in more photos with my own girls ā despite the extra 40 pounds life kindly dropped on me during a stressful season š
because if I wait until I feel ābetter,ā āsmaller,ā āless tired,ā or more put togetherā¦ life will keep moving anyway.
Our kids keep growing.
As moms, we spend so much time protecting our babies, raising them, worrying about them, trying to prepare them for this big world. We carry so much. But I think sometimes we forget to think about the someday. The someday when we arenāt here anymore. What will they hold onto?
Photos.
Photos of you laughing with them. Holding them. Adventuring together. Fishing at the lake. Snuggled up at home. Windblown hair, messy buns, chaos, dirty shoes, bad weather, real life. Not because everything looked perfect.
But because you were there.
Because someday these images become proof of love. Proof of childhood. Proof of home. So hereās your loving little kick in the butt to stop caring about the size, the outfit, the laundry pile, or whatever excuse your brain has convinced you matters.
Book the session because every single day they get a little older, and these will be the photos theyāll hold onto forever.
