As the saying goes, "For when a child is born the mother also is born again.” (Gilbert Parker)

If you are a new mother or expecting a baby, you may be looking for connection, for answers and for community. It is out there and I encourage you to engage and find what you need! Although every mother’s experience is different, we are all on the same journey. We {as mothers} want to feel secure, loved and protected and we want the exact same for our babies. The gift of motherhood will bring you every extreme emotion and all the little feels in between, embrace them and share them with a friend. You are helping her in so many ways.

The pain that you’ve been feeling, can’t compare to the joy that’s coming. -Romans 8:18

I’ve taken a few minutes to think about this line from Romans 8:18 and how true this rings to motherhood. We are given such a gift with this role. It comes with hardship, pain, joy, love, laughter and everything both in between and on either side. Each experience is unique, each turn of events affects us each in a different way. In essence though, we are all on the same journey. Am I right?

Once I began to show the world only what I love to do, the people who resonated with that started to contact me. I would say that all of my hired work now centers around honest and intimate Motherhood. Whether clients are seeking a Maternity Session, a Newborn Session or a Family Session, the overarching theme in my work is Motherhood.  

My experience of coming home for the first time was like walking through a fierce storm that rushed through my life, breaking apart every thing I was once sure of and as soon as the chaos settled down, there were only just pieces of my previous life to pick up and build off of, to make better, and to enjoy differently.

I want to tell you about a mother who moves me, a mother whose love and strength are so vibrant that you can actually feel it when you are around her. This Denver mamma came to me years ago for our first Family Session and has continued to be a loyal client even when I moved out of town to Boulder County...
