There’s something magical about capturing a mom in her element — not posed or polished, just present.

This recent in-home motherhood session was the perfect reminder that the beauty of motherhood lives in the quiet, everyday moments. We started the morning curled up with books in the living room, soft sunlight pouring in through the windows. Then came a latte in the kitchen — little hands helping, of course — followed by playtime in the backyard, boots on and laughter filling the air.

It wasn’t about perfection. It was about presence.

These are the memories we’ll want to look back on — the way they looked at you when you read their favorite story, the way they added cinnamon to your latte as a special touch, and the pure joy of running through the backyard in their rain boots.

Motherhood is made up of these in-between moments, and I’m so honored to document them for you.
