This weekend I’ll be celebrating my second Mother’s Day and the adventure has changed dramatically since last year.  We now have a walker, talker, mover and shaker in the house, my baby’s looking more like a big girl and I get to hear “Mama” at least 100 times a day!  I’m back to work full time but […]

I had the pleasure of working with the exquisitely stylish (and beautiful) Jennifer Collins this week as she rocked her bump for my camera. We captured the sweet anticipation of her 2nd baby boy who’ll joining her crew next month- Dad Martin and Big Bro Bennett were hands on to show the love, and the city itself […]

Gone are the weekly photo shoots of my baby in a cute outfit propped up on the couch, I now have a fully mobile wild child on my hands.  By the time I turn my real camera on she’s halfway out the door, or halfway in the toilet, or throwing her lunch on the floor.   […]

There’s a special place in my heart for this boy- I waited 4 years to welcome my daughter into the world and The Johnson’s have been hoping for a second baby since I photographed their first.  I thought for certain that he was going to be a she, I even saved a few of my favorite Gemma outfits for him! My […]

At this time last year, Terria was one of my first Beyond Love clients, I was 5 months pregnant and had absolutely no clue how much I would need women like her in my life post-partum.   Terria knew she would need help capturing Bodie’s first year,  since she had a toddler at home this go around.  So I got […]

Spring has sprung, and after a long winter of creating a new normal for our family, I demanded Dad and Gemma take a time out for my camera. They visited me at my studio yesterday to capture their magical bond and delight me with their smiles.

When I went a week plus past my due date last summer, I was beyond ready to hold my sweet girl.  I walked miles everyday (in August), bounced endlessly on my yoga ball, ate a whole pineapple for every meal, and some other foolery I’m not willing to admit here.  In the end they had to […]

As a photographer who works almost exclusively capturing women’s journeys, I always recommend a professional photo shoot to mother’s when their babe is between 6 and 9 months.  It’s the period of time when your baby becomes more of a person, and reaches that adorable milestone of sitting up unassisted (at least for a minute or […]

February 27th  was a gorgeous sunny day and I happily set out for my Bump Session with Lisa, who was still hustling around at 37 weeks. I went on location to her apartment to make sure we included her partner Jonathan and their first child, Sandy, the Italian greyhound.   I usually recommend these shoots occur between 30 and 36 […]

I started offering pregnancy photo sessions a year ago, I was pregnant and the time and in love with my new curves.  I was looking at pregnant bellies in a new light and compelled to put my lens to this beauty inside and around me.  Now having given birth and having my babe out in the […]
