As a newborn and family photographer for over a decade, I often have to coax moms to get into the photos with their children. Some women are more hesitant than others, but I truly believe that it is important for very mother to have photos of her with her children.

Being a mom is one of the most important jobs you will have. You need to have photos taken that document this precious time raising your children. Here are some reasons why:

You are always the one taking the pictures

If you are anything like me, you are NEVER in pics with your kids because you are the one taking the photos. Don’t believe me? Scroll through your phone and check out the pictures of your children. How many of those are you actually in? It is kind of scary to see that although we are the most important person to our children, they have little tangible evidence that shows the times we spent with them. So, now book a photo session with me and lets get you some archival photos.

Allows you to enjoy time with your children 

So much of our time as moms is spent being caught up in the day to day activities of the household. We are often the disciplinarians, chauffeur, chef, educator, housekeeper, referee and the list goes one. A motherhood session will give you a chance to be present and enjoy special time with your children. It is a time to play, snuggle, kiss, and enjoy those sweet moments with your little ones.

It is the gift that keeps on giving

If your partner or husband is looking to give you a gift, why not ask for a photo session? It is not only a gift for you, but for your children as well. They will cherish having these images with their momma. The value of a photograph is immeasurable, and this will be something that can be passed through the generations.

Freezes this special time

I know that I am stating the obvious here, but your children will not be young forever. Motherhood sessions are an opportunity to capture those physical and emotional characteristics that you don’t want to forget about your children. I recommend that my clients schedule yearly motherhood sessions so that they don’t miss out on an opportunity to document this time with their littles. I feel it is especially important to schedule these sessions once the kids are older too.

Do Something for YOU

As mothers, it isn’t very often we get to do something for ourselves. It has probably been a while since you scheduled hair and makeup appointments. A photo session is a perfect opportunity to get all dolled up and to feel beautiful and special.
