Happy World Breastfeeding Week. 🤱🏼

To the moms nursing babies 20+ times a day.

To the ones waking every hour through the night.

To the moms producing an abundant freezer stash.

To the ones giving every ounce of themselves to make even just one ounce of milk.

To the babies who latched with ease.

To the ones who fought it tooth and nail before finally figuring it out.

To the moms exclusively nursing.

To the ones exclusively pumping.

To the moms combo feeding, supplementing, or adapting their plans while still loving their babies fiercely.

To the moms nursing toddlers.

To the ones tandem nursing.

To the ones feeding twins, triplets, or more.

To the moms using donor milk.

To the ones nourishing a baby that isn’t biologically theirs.

To the moms healing from tongue ties, mastitis, cracked ni***es, low supply, oversupply, clogged ducts, or countless tears.

To the moms who melt every time the oxytocin hits.

To the ones who don’t enjoy breastfeeding at all, but continue anyway.

From overnights to early mornings. In bed, on the couch, in the car, at church, in restaurants, grocery stores, parks, airports, and everywhere in between. Through joy and pain. Confidence and uncertainty. Changed expectations. Countless sacrifices. Endless perseverance.

No two breastfeeding journeys look the same. Every mother is different. Every baby is different. Whether this is your very first latch or your tenth baby, you are doing something incredible.

Breastmilk is amazing.

But mothers are magnificent.

You are seen. You are loved. And today, you are celebrated. 🤍

and she had a sticky shoulder + a nuchal hand 🤪 really gave me a run for my money.

here's my point: while these issues can become emergencies, a majority of the time in physiological birth, they can be easily solved or avoided altogether.

Weight estimates by ultrasound can be off by 1-2+ pounds. A skilled birth attendant can help with position changes and extractions. Focusing on gravity and physiology can promote baby to descend smoothly. Induction doesn't mean less risk or no complications. A baby that is large may just need more time and movement to make space.

There are so many reasons why "your baby might be big" does not have to be a scary statement.

In a healthy normal pregnancy, your body is growing a baby that it is meant to birth. When you are empowered and educated on this topic, you will learn that there are so many options besides an automatic induction or cesarean that are still safe for yourself and baby.

My husband was 10 lbs and I was an above average baby, so I was mentally prepared for a larger baby. But I was not panicked. My midwife and I made mutual decisions about care and I trusted that if any roadblocks popped up, she would be able to assist. And when the time came, she did!

My baby's shoulder was slightly stuck on my p***c bone, but she was able to non-invasively release it, and I had no idea until after birth when she told me! I was so grateful that she not only had the wisdom to help in this situation but that she did not work out of fear or jump to the most hands-on, aggressive approach. She took a physiological approach, simply having me shift one of my legs up, and using gravity to my advantage. All these decisions are what helped us avoid an actual emergency or injury.

This is why it's so important to choose your birth team wisely and do your own research to be the authority in your care 🤍

Make my photography dreams come true and save some money? I’d call that a win-win. 🤍

I’d be absolutely thrilled to photograph any of these sessions before summer fades into fall. If one of these feels like you, I’d love to chat!

🌿 Homestead Session
Whether you have a few backyard chickens or a full family farm, I’d love to document your family in your element—feeding the animals, gathering eggs, tending the garden, doing chores together, and finding joy in the simple, everyday moments.

🌊 Sunset & Swim Session
This isn’t your typical beach session with everyone staying perfectly dry (although you’re welcome to dress up if you’d like!). I’m dreaming of a family willing to kick off their shoes, splash in the waves, chase the sunset, and embrace all the carefree magic of a summer evening by the ocean.

🌼 Garden Harvest Session
Whether it’s a vegetable garden bursting with tomatoes or a yard full of blooming flowers, I’d love to capture you harvesting, exploring, getting your hands dirty, and soaking in the beauty you’ve grown together.

🏡 Lifestyle Newborn Session
A slow, cozy, family-centered session in the comfort of your own home. No pressure, no stiff posing—just snuggling your newest little love, soaking in these fleeting newborn days, and preserving your family’s story exactly as it is.

These are the sessions I’ve been dreaming about creating—the kinds of images that feel authentic, joy-filled, and deeply meaningful. If one of these sounds like your family, send me a message! I’d be honored to tell your story before summer slips away. 🤍

*Please note: The inspiration photos in this post are not mine and are simply meant to show the style and feel I’m envisioning for these sessions.

it's been almost a whole year since I started this page, so I figured I would reintroduce myself to all the new faces!

I am Vic, a follower of Jesus, wife + mama, birth doula + photographer/videographer. I love the life I live and who I get to do it with, and I adore what I get to do with my passions. I'll never get over how blessed I am to be able to serve the women in my life and for the wisdom and gifts that the Lord has given to me.

Whether you follow me as a friend, a client, or a fellow birth worker, I am so happy you're here and love making connections! Never be afraid to reach out for anything🤍

and if I truly couldn't...
• I have friends who would've nursed my baby
• pumps and bottles were an Amazon order away
• I'd find a CLC, a good chiro, a craniosacral therapist...

the list goes on. and while we're at it.... I'd choose raw goat milk over formula, so 🤠 but that's just me!

In summary, my key to breastfeeding was just DOING it. Exhausting all my options if I had to. Not saying "it just wasn't for me" if we ran into some road bumps. It was too close to my heart and important for me to give to my daughter that I wasn't going to switch gears without a fight❤️‍🩹

That's why I didn't want any of these things - because they were going to be so low on my priority list no matter what happened. I was determined to stick with nursing, and I'm so glad that those who went before me in motherhood confirmed that those were a true last resort, that most breastfeeding troubles can be worked through and resolved, and sometimes it takes pure grit and tenacity.

I know it won't always be easy and yes I know it is not possible for every woman. There is nuance. But the best choice for me was to just go in and try it before having any of these plan B's taking up space in my house 💯

more from sarah + tim's (+ baby ketelhut's) shoot 🌅

at the last minute, we pivoted from a flower field to a local farm owned by a family friend and the photos could not have turned out better! from the golden sunset to the tall grass, everything was just so dreamy and the perfect fit for these two.

so elated for your growing family and excited to support you guys on this journey 💕
