MY STORY

I am sharing this before and after pictures not because I have a magic shake for you or a wrap of some kind to sell, I don't. This was not a quick fix.. this was something hard, that took time and lots of research with hours of reading. So if you see this and want a quick fix, you should probably stop reading.

I am sharing to show what it looks like to have a lifestyle change. For those who don't know, I wanted to share this story with you... 


Mother's Day | REAL LIFE PICTURES


Happy Mother's day to all mommas out there!! Today was my mom's birthday too! So a special day to celebrate my mom! After lunch, I took my sister and two nieces outside for a mini-crazy shoot ;) The cuteness, realness ... just perfect for Mother's Day.... it isn't always pretty, but there are so moments in between the craziness that it's all worth it <3 


Bluffton, IN Maternity Session | Brittney

This session was a breeze. Brittney was "glowing" and rocks the belly look ;) But for real, I really enjoyed this session and can not wait to meet their baby girl here soon!! 




JANE MARIE | BIRTH

It was 2 years ago in March I was invited into the Nickol's home to photograph the birth of William. This was my first birth to witness and I was all sorts of excited and nervous. What I witnessed was something so beautiful and so incredible I left feeling on a high. I told everyone in sight about it and had found a new joy in photographing .... birth photography! I have since then photographed 6th other beautiful births and each one is special and makes me love my "job"

When I got the text that Natalie was asking me back to photograph baby number #2's arrival I was again on cloud nine knowing this would be another beautiful birth.

At 1:38 am on Tuesday morning I got the text "Baby time" oh, joy! It's the only time it will be okay to be woken up so early in the morning! 

Then came 5:38 am ... Jane was earthside! Wow. What a moment! Natalie has shown me that birth is something not to fear but to embrace and be empowered. I love how she welcomes other moms, soon to be moms and even just friends wanting to see into a small room to watch such a miracle of life.
