the first forty weeks

three milestone sessions capturing your baby’s first year

 
 
 
 
 

So much change in such a short time

We have such special family photos from when my second baby was a newborn and then again at one year. It’s so wild to see how different we all are in each of those sets of photographs. How much had shifted and grown in that little body of hers. And how much I had shifted and grown in myself. Of course I took a million photos of her in between. Enough that you could probably make a flip book and watch her little cheeks grow. But what I don’t have is any images showing how WE changed together. How our relationship deepened. How I thought I knew how to mother a baby and how quickly I learned that it was all new again - that I was creating a relationship with a new person and had become a new mother in the process.

So I’ve created a new offer for my clients to document the incredibly fast (but that feels oh-so-slow much of the time) growth that happens in our babies first year. 3 sessions: the first when they are fresh new babies, the second as you both exit the fourth trimester, and the last when you’ve been outside your body for as long as they grew inside you.
