THE BLOG

Support, stories, and more for your motherhood journey.

Sometimes I Wonder

Sometimes I wonder, when you look at me what you see? And when you close your eyes, what it is that you dream about? I wonder what it is that you’re seeing and what is making you smile as you sleep. I wonder about those things that have you bothered and all those things that pull you out of your slumber. Baby, I wonder what it is that you…

My Favourite Thing to Capture in a Session

When I get to work with parents, a family or siblings to capture images of them, the first and my favourite thing to look for is their connection. It is connection that not only makes an image stand out, but it is also is the very substance of our lives. Without connection, we are left hungry and wanting, but with connection, we are left satisfied and fulfilled…

Your Bright Smile is Contagious

Your smile lights up a room. That joy that bubbles out of you when you find something simply hilarious is contagious. The way your lips turn upwards when you meet someone new is beautiful. And how you tilt your head just slightly when you are doing something you love like you’re carrying sunbeams in your cheeks is stunning. I love the way you…

What Makes Your Portrait Experience Here So Different?

When I went to visit Jessica and Peter before their family session they told me a few things that opened my eyes. They loved the time we spent photographing, and the fact that we didn’t rush. Before you arrive at the studio, I’m spending time making it as comfortable as it can be. I’ll often ask you what music your kids love to hear so that I…

Sing And Dance Without A Care In The World

It doesn't matter if you're good, bad, or really bad. Don't do it for anyone except for you. Sing off key and dance like nobody's watching. Sing in the car. Sing in the shower. Sing at the top of your lungs. Dance in the living room. Dance at a restaurant. Dance like you've never even heard music before...

The Honour Of Being Your Home

One of the most beautiful gifts I have ever been given is the honour of being your home. For nine months, I got to be your home. I got to be the place that you snuggled into and were safe. I got to protect you from all of the elements of life and cover you in every single way. I got to feel you grow…

The Powerful Way Children See The World

There is something powerful about the way children see the world. Sometimes if you lean into their perspective, you can feel their fearlessness, like the world is something to be explored, never to be afraid of. You can feel the energy of their bravery and their wonder, that they’re just hungry to know more…

You Are A Dream Come True

When I officially found out you were a boy, I already knew. I could tell by the way you moved in my belly just so, sometimes it was almost like you just jumped. In a way I cannot explain, it was like I already knew you. Like I had met you before, maybe in my dreams, maybe in heaven. Like I had already held you…

This Is What Children Can Teach You

There’s so much we can learn from children. Kids can be our biggest teachers if we have enough humility just to say yes. As much as we know all that we know through life experience, there are almost some things it would be good to unlearn. There are some things we know, that it would almost be better if…

Do You Know How Valuable You Are?

Before you arrived, we prayed for you. Before we saw you for the first time, we felt we already knew you closely. With every movement of your heart and every breath in your lungs, your life has value.
And it’s so funny because before you, we had everything we needed. Or we thought we did. But…
