I am so excited you’re interested in motherhood mini sessions! These sessions are so special, a beautiful way to capture your love & relationship with your babies. So what are the details?
There are 2 dates available for these sessions: Friday April 28th, and Wednesday May 3rd.
Sessions are 15 minutes long. You will end up with 25-35 images.
Sessions are $100 + tax.

Last summer, I photographed the most beautiful family. It was a day of mini sessions, but I arrived about 20 minutes early and they were already there. For some reason, I really felt a pull to start their session early and give them the extra time. We were able to get a lot of beautiful images of each parent with each child individually with all of our extra time.
A month later, I received the most devastating DM. Their aunt messaged me to let me know that this family had lost their 7 year old son in a freak accident. She asked me for the images, as she was the one managing funeral preparations, obituary, etc. In that moment, I knew exactly why I had arrived so early to their session the month before. They needed these pictures. The images of each of them with their son will be the last professional photos they ever have of him. It was sobering, to say the least. And the experience was a catalyst for a change in my business. I decided I needed to focus more on connections, whether that looked like longer sessions, or dedicated emotion sessions, like these Motherhood sessions. My sole purpose as a photographer, is to be able to capture the relationships you have with the people you love most.
So what will these sessions look like?
These sessions are SUPER quick, so we’ll jump right into it! My goal isn’t for a bunch of smiling-at-the-camera shots. I want those magical, emotion-filled shots. I want you to look at these images in 30 years, and be transported back in time to this beautiful moment. So we’ll immediately start playing games, hugging, kissing, tickling, etc! I’ll give you a variety of images with you with each kid, and you with all the kids together.
Can we sneak Dad in for one or two shots?
Sorry, not this time. I know it would be the *perfect* time to snag a family photo, but our purpose here is to capture Mom & her babies. And as silly as it is, I have to mentally prepare for all of my sessions. It will throw off my whole night of shooting if I have to switch into “family photo” mode, even just for one shot. He’s welcome to come observe & help herd kiddos! But I’d be so grateful for your cooperation on this one (and honestly, Dad’s probably going to be thrilled he doesn’t have to worry about being in the photos this time either!)
Will I have these back by Mother’s Day?
Yes, ma’am! I’ll have them edited and back to you before Mother’s Day! If you’re buying this session for a mother in your life (maybe your spouse or daughter?), and want to give her the images ON Mother’s Day (she’ll have to come to the session before, of course), let me know. I’ll send you the images directly and won’t sneak peek them. Then you can give the actual images as a gift on Mother’s Day!
