The Glow | A Maternity Shoot with the Young Family

This rockstar mama was getting ready to have her 4th baby and couldn’t have been any more calm cool and collected about it. Because of this Mom & Dads relaxed vibe, I was really able to have the kids connect with mama, by that I mean, we actually captured those genuine “I love you’s” and hugs that sometimes don’t come out on family photo shoots if mom is feeling stressed… it was giggles and splashes, and of course no true adventure goes without a few tears… overall we all had lots of fun!

What made this shoot so successful in my eyes was not only the perfect weather and sunset (that magic hour & buttery light)… but the way Mom and Dad set the mood… let’s have some fun, we aren’t going to be uptight and nervous and let the kids be kids!

A nurturing mama who has since had an all natural home birth with midwife team!

The Glow | a maternity shoot with Kathryn

This very talented little mama came into my life around 2011 (ish) when she started dating one of my husbands bff's (still with me?)... Justin and Jake made our worlds collide and here we are, 6 years later, married and grown up! MOTHERS!!!!

Kathryn is a very talented designer who recently, took her show on the road and started her own company, The Everyday Co. She has done a beautiful job creating + growing it and continues to wow the home decor community. Her success certainly didn't come from luck, she's the true definition of a hussla' . She's working her tail off and it is paying off in big ways.

KAY - I wish you luck on your own personal journey of figuring out how you're going to balance it all! If anyone can do it, it's you.
