Another client print order out the door! I love this part of my job so much. I realized after this order that I hadn't printed new photos of my family in awhile that I had to put it my own order. But seriously, look at those canvas ones. 1.5" thick🤩

We have officially started planning and booking our summer roadtrip! 2 weeks full of camping, hiking, and exploring new places. Oh how I've missed traveling.

I've been thinking about adding some sessions to my books to capture some new landscape....🤔 I'm not sure I want to take the family time off but then again I don't want to miss those amazing opportunities!

This momma didn't know it, but that day I was having a stressful day and as soon as I showed up and we started shooting, all my problems went away and I was able to just enjoy what I love most, which is capturing raw moments with amazing clients. They were so easy to photograph and so sweet that it turned my entire night around. My clients are the best!

Breastfeeding didn’t come easy for me and to tell you the truth, I’m still not sure how we got through it. My son Landon is my first born, and although I was not able to breastfeed him by latching, I exclusively pumped for the first 3 months. This was not the ideal situation and I knew that when I became pregnant with Mila, my number one goal was to conquer breastfeeding. I tried to mentally prepare myself and read all the books that I could before her arrival, but nothing will ever prepare you until you’re faced with it head on. My daughter Mila was born, and this was my second chance. In the hospital I had a difficult time latching and by discharge we were still not able to succeed. The first month was full of challenges from latching issues, possible tongue tie, weight loss, and of course the pain that I felt while learning to breastfeed. We powered through the days and weeks but to tell you the truth, I’d cry everytime it was time to feed. The pain was excruciating and even felt more painful than the birth itself. I was always cracked and bleeding and it was a vicious cycle trying to heal when you have a newborn to feed. The third week came and I was still in pain. I needed a break both mentally and physically if I was going to change my situation, so that is exactly what I did. No mommy guilt this time because this break was for the both of us. I took 3 days off of breastfeeding to heal, then I came back full force. Healing was the most important step that I had missed and one that I wished I’d done sooner. There was finally a light at the end of that tunnel and the pain started to disappear more and more each day. Each day we got better at breastfeeding and I grew to love it more and more. Knowing how difficult our breastfeeding journey has been, we were still able to donate over 3,000 oz of breastmilk to families in need and Mila is now 26 months old and still going strong with breastfeeding.

I am so behind on posting! Why is social media so time consuming? Who has time for this?! Ugh, anyways, if you didn't know this about me, I dislike most social media platforms and spending time on them so posting regularly is a CHORE for me. But I love that people trust me enough to capture their stories and share them for you all!

My son is one and a half, we have been nursing pretty strongly from the beginning. I had some issues when I developed mastitis not once, but twice, which we were able to pull through. Maverrik mainly nurses for comfort now since he goes to school a few days a week while I do schoolwork and he just stopped nursing in the middle of the night. My daughter breastfed until she was 2.5 and I plan to nurse my son until he self weans or until he’s 2.5, whichever comes first. All of our journeys are so different, but the one constant thing is that we do this out of love of our child and love out of motherhood.

There are so many different paths you can take through your journey into motherhood and being able to breastfeed your baby is one that you can always be proud of! No matter how long or short that path was.

It has been six months since my daughter was born, and I can full heartedly say I love breastfeeding her. It’s magical being able to nourish my baby with my body and I’m so grateful I get to do it. I’m also grateful I didn’t have the rocky start to my journey so many women seem to have. She was a natural latcher from the start and besides one bad case of mastitis, breastfeeding has been easy for us. Even with that ease, going back to work and having to pump on a schedule has me understanding why so many people don’t make it to a year and beyond. Being a source of fuel for another human is mentally and emotionally draining and it was probably the most difficult part of being a new mom for me. My journey has humbled me and taught me to be thankful for the small victories. I had no idea so many women struggled with breastfeeding in the beginning, until I started to read and research in preparation for pumping and bottle feeding.
I’m thankful my daughter and I have had such a strong bond from the beginning thanks to the way we had chosen to feed her. I’m most thankful for my husband though. I do not think I would have kept this up as long as I have without his constant support.Even though he wasn’t the one feeding her those first few months, he was always by my side making sure I had everything I needed in order to properly feed her. Whether that be a glass of water, a snack, or even just a conversation, he has made it his mission to support me in this journey. I don’t know how long I will breastfeed Aurora for, but I am grateful I have gotten to experience the bond that comes with it; it truly is my favorite part of the day. Gettng to come home, hold my girl tight, and nurture her ever growing body is an experience I will never take for granted.

If you don't know me personally, I am a huge believer that women are total rockstars and we should all feel the freedom to empower each other in anyway we can. Women are such strong, capable beings and I am in awe of their raw beauty every single day. The things we are biologically capable of doing is just breathtakingly beautiful. The sacrifices we make for others on the daily, the pain we endure bringing a human life into this world... seriously, it's all just a beautiful mess and I am so honored to have the opportunity to capture these special moments and help tell these stories.

Her story:
I remember our first night home from the hospital, it was midnight, he was hungry and I had a breakdown. I didn’t know what was happening to me. No one in my family had ever breastfed before and all my searches were coming up empty. I was in so much pain. I couldn’t lift my arms past my shoulders or get Emmitt to latch because my ni***es became inverted when my milk was coming in. It wasn't until this random woman on a social media post started explaining everything and giving me advice on how to get through it! The power of community and strangers coming together to help one another is so beautiful and heartwarming.

Unfortunately, at 2 weeks old, my son started projectile throwing up constantly, had awful baby acne, burns on his butt and when I laid him down flat he’d start choking and was constantly crying. After 2 doctors and switching practices, I found someone who actually helped and didn’t just brush me off saying it was because I had an oversupply.
My son was diagnosed with GERD, then was prescribed reflux medicine and I was to start eliminating foods from my diet. I eliminated dairy, eggs, caffeine, seafood and acidic foods. After the 8 week detox period, we were able to get his reflux under control with my new diet and his medication. Things finally started looking better. I returned to work after 3 months. Pumping was exhausting, but so rewarding, as I was able to donate just over 3,000 oz of breastmilk to babies from all over the state!

Emmitt has been breastfeeding for 18 months now and showing no signs of wanting to stop!
