I’m just absolutely in awe to have permission to share such a meaningful maternity session. Im in awe of womanhood in its entirety, really.
We carry resilience and perseverance on the chin throughout every stage of motherhood.
I admire how we carry life + home so gracefully while waves are violently crashing inside our minds, as if this is the new normal. (It is)
I admire the dedication we pour into motherhood as the 4am silence somehow equates to the loudest tornado siren to have ever existed.
I admire how the house + home is tended to, although we haven’t tended to ourselves in months, some of us years.
I admire how committed we are to our children as we watch our bodies grow and stretch into bodies we don’t even recognize anymore. I also admire how courageously we approach birth, knowing the likelihood that this may be the last thing we ever do. (We wouldn’t have it any other way)
Waves crashing, lightning striking, angels singing, two worlds combining into one, and not to mention the mental warfare we face during post partum— and all at the expense of ourselves because we prayed for this.
These thoughts saturate my mind with every one of my maternity sessions. You may see a girl holding a camera, but I get to witness womanhood and motherhood all over again through each of you.
What a blessing that is. What a privilege that is.
In a world that neglects to see or hear women, let alone newfound mamas— please know that I feel everything so very deeply alongside of you guys 💐
Also for the record, ChatGPT could neverrrr ^
Sincerely,
A very Piscean photographer
