This year I have decided since there has always been such an awesome response to our Mama and Me Minis and I continue to get inquiries all year, I would do something a bit different to accommodate that. I also realized that I was getting a huge amount of expectant Mamas and wanted to make things easier on them as well because these two kinds of sessions are some of my most favorite to shoot.

Here is how:

Instead of ONE mini session event where I host everything on one date, I am sharing a hand full of dates below I am available for these. The sessions will be held the last 40 minutes to get the best light possible. I am also including a shopping cart link. You will use that to check out and purchase your spot and then message me either via e-mail, the blog contact form or my fan page message option to specify which date. These are first come, first serve so be sure to message as quickly as possible as I can’t guarantee the date until you and I are in touch. I also have a very special payment option. You can either pay half for the deposit or purchase all at once for a slight discount.

The dates below are for both The Mama & Me Minis and the Maternity Minis

Dates: May 21st,  June 1st, June 2nd, June 20th, August 2nd, August 3rd. August 8th and August 9th.

(If there are weekday dates not mentioned here and you need something specific, especially for the maternity minis, we will work something out.)

Mamas.

I know that as a mother myself I tend to be on the other side of the camera. The side that is taking the images. And it makes me so incredibly sad going through and realizing I am missing from so many. When my children sit down with their children someday, they will know I was there in spirit but they won’t see the love in my eyes. And honestly you do not in fact even need to be a professional photographer to be guilty of this. We are the care takers, the nurturers, the soft place to land. We are a shoulder to lean into, to cry on and to occasionally fall asleep on. We sing and we rock and we soothe. We have our hands so full so often- that we are making memories but we aren’t recorded in them.

Let me help you change that.

I want to photograph you in all your glory. I want to record the love and bond between you and your children. There is no pressure. You only need to show up and love on your children.. and I will document it beautifully for you. You deserve to leave your legacy AND have it tangibly to cherish always.

And for those expectant Mamas. There are few things as beautiful as a pregnant woman. At this moment you may not feel as so. You likely feel swollen and tired and maybe a bit weepy. Whether this is your first, or your last child however know that it is going to go in a wink. It is going to go so fast in fact you will think you will remember it all, but the bittersweet truth is likely… you won’t. You won’t because between the exhaustion and the newfound rosy glow of motherhood, it is going to be so breathtakingly beautiful and your mind is going to snap to trying to preserve your babies chubby features and how you feel in that moment.

Let me help you remember. This time demands to be cherished. I made the mistake of taking time for granted and as a woman that doesn’t have nearly enough images of myself heavy with my own babies, you want to do this. You need these photos.

I absolutely loved the time I spent with this sweet family. They were troopers and were even up for a little bit of a hike despite the fact that this Mama is getting closer and closer to her due date. We had already had to reschedule their session to later in their vacation here due to Thunderstorms and as soon as we showed up to the location it began to completely down pour.  We waited it out in our cars while it slowly passed and then noticed the storm was heading in the opposite direction so we decided to brave it out. We were rewarded with the prettiest rainbow and lovely sunshine. The rainbow couldn’t have been more appropriate considering she is carrying their very own rainbow baby. I was also excited to learn that they are letting the gender of their child be a surprise, (Especially because we have that in common!) and I am now stalking her on social media waiting to hear news of what they are having lol! Everything about this session was seamless once we got started. They were down to earth and fun to hang out with. We joked, we picked flowers, we dodged tiny cactus and really just spent a couple of hours hanging out and getting some lovely images in the process.

And a quick update on Fall sessions. As of now October is now all spoken for. There is a couple of dates in September and possibly one or two for early November and we are booked for the year. Feel free to get in touch via my fan page or the contact blog to claim a date for yourself. <3 I will begin booking 2016 late Fall/Winter.
