If the last two pictures don’t accurately depict siblings idk what does! 🥹😂
Friends, getting pictures with the whole extended family is so special. 🫶Having those wall worthy memories of the grandkids with Grandma & Grandpa, siblings being silly, and the whole big family is something that I promise, will always be treasured!

I’m always immensely happy when I get to work with moms and their littles! The biggest reason why is because as moms we end up being the one behind the camera and not in front of it 95% of the time and tend to not get a lot of pictures of us and our babies (unless it’s a selfie). So I always make it a priority to snap a beautiful selection of images of you moms with each of your littles at our session!

I cannot believe it’s already back to school already! Mamas how are you feeling? Happy for the extra time or bittersweet? Since we homeschool it doesn’t really change much in routine for us but I’m still amazed that I have a 1st grader & preschooler! Like what!? I feel like I’m hyper aware of time now that I’m a mom and every single phase just seems to go by so fast which is so not cool. 🥹 Anyway, I’ll be hauling out the fall decor and melting a pumpkin spice candle today cause your girl is READY. The last half of every year is my favorite! 🎄🎃🦃
Anyone else ready to jump in to the holidays?

A FAQ question by all the mommy’s to be is

”when is the best week of pregnancy to book a maternity session?”

From my experience I suggest between the weeks of 30-34 weeks being the most optimal.
•Here’s the top 3 why’s•
-you’ll still be (somewhat) comfortable to be walking around.
-Baby will be big enough so that we can still get that cute bump 🤰
-Less chance of going into labor and missing photos all together

Getting photos during pregnancy outside this timeframe is still completely acceptable ☺️and I’ve taken photos of mamas all the way up to their due date!! So don’t sweat it if you have to have them done earlier or later just keep this in mind if you have the ability to schedule in advance. 🤍

“Motherhood-
Emotional, yet a rock.
Tired, but keeps going.
Worried, but full of hope.
Impatient, yet patient.
Overwhelmed, but never quits.
Amazing, even though doubted.
Wonderful, even in the chaos.
Life changer, every single day”
