Somewhere lost in the woods...actually
Machaela
When we think of Mother Nature, we think of untamed strength, quiet beauty, life-giving warmth, chaos of storms, and a grounding presence that keeps everything in balance. If she were a real person walking among us, she would be her.
From capturing her wedding day to watching her navigate the beautiful chaos of raising two sweet, energetic toddlers and now preparing to welcome boy number three I’ve had the absolute front-row seat to her growth. She is a true staple in my life, a valuable soul, and a bright light to every single person who knows her.
This session was created solely for her. We brought her out into the elements surrounded by towering trees, mossy riverbanks, and glowing forest light to reflect the breathtaking energy she embodies every single day as a mother:
Grounded in the Earth: Barefoot in the lush grass and leaning against weathered woods, carrying herself with effortless, natural confidence.
Flowing & Restorative: Sitting in the cool, running stream, reflecting the calm, restorative power of water.
Luminous & Radiant: Bathed in sunset sunlight filtering through the canopy of ancient trees looking toward the beautiful chapter of becoming a boy mom of three.
When I think of Machaela, and when she reached out for a unique session that was for her, to celebrate her body as it is during motherhood I knew it had to be a true vision of her, she reminds me of a darker part of earth, a grounding factor deep in the roots of forests, how I view her and ultimately how I believe the world sees her.
She is a remarkable mother, a fierce protector, and the ultimate embodiment of creation, strength, and grace. Motherhood is beautiful and she makes it look so flawless.
Thank you- Your Vision Rentals for providing most of the props to make this come to life. Bree you're a true gem. As soon as I say it, you can make any of my visions come alive. I appreciate you! 🫶🏻
