YOUR CHESAPEAKE VIRGINIA MOTHERHOOD PHOTOGRAPHER

MOTHERHOOD

Motherhood is a remarkable adventure, brimming with both beauty and resilience. From the quiet cuddles in the early hours to the laughter-filled chaos of family dinners, every moment is a testament to the strength of a mother's love. Documenting and photographing this journey is like capturing fireflies in a jar - it freezes those fleeting moments in time, allowing us to cherish them long after they've passed. 

Yes, I frequently hear the sentiment, "Let me lose a few pounds before booking a session." Ladies, don't let your size hold you back from being in front of the camera. You are beautiful and worthy of celebration at every size. I'm here to support you throughout the process, ensuring we capture the most flattering shots from every angle. My aim isn't just to document the beauty of your journey into motherhood but also to make the experience stress-free and enjoyable for you.

Remember, the true essence of motherhood lies in the love and joy you bring to each moment, not in the number on a scale. Embrace yourself as you are, for that authenticity shines brightest in photographs. Let's create timeless memories that reflect the beauty and strength of your journey through motherhood, ones you'll treasure for a lifetime.

THE PROCESS

After you submit your inquiry form, I will call you so we can discuss and plan out your own custom portrait experience. We will cover everything from location, dates, vision for the shoot, clothing etc. This might sound overwhelming but don't worry as I'll be here to guide you through the process.

Say Hello

After our phone consultation,  an email with your contract and session fee invoice will be sent. Once I receive your signed contract and session fee payment, it's official! Your session fee also serves as a retainer, blocking your date on my calendar which confirms our session. Please note that retainers are non-refundable but is transferable to a later date should something come up. 

Contract & Payment 

This is the fun part! I recommend arriving 5-10 minutes prior to the start of the session. This is to allow for outfit changes, snacks for little ones and makeup touchups if needed. 

Session Day

Not sure if you're ready to commit to a large canvas print of your beautiful family? No problem! I want you to buy what you love. I offer digital and print products a la carte , so you only pick those you genuinely love! 

Create your collection

Two weeks after our session, we will set up a mutually agreed time so you can view,  select and purchase your favorite images and artwork, and that's it! 

Gallery Reveal

Select the images that truly speak to your heart! I offer digital files and beautiful print options so you can curate a collection that feels uniquely yours. Your session begins with a $500 non-refundable retainer, which is credited toward your chosen artwork. Both products and digital files are available separately. Are you excited to book your session? Reach out to me below, and let's start crafting a memorable experience for you and your little loves!

We're incredibly fortunate to have crossed paths with Iya and utilize her services from Okinawa to the East Coast of the USA. Over the last 2.5 years, she's worked with my crew (young daughter and 3 dogs) to create some FABULOUS results. 

Highly recommend her for her precision, creative visions and the final products are absolutely breathtaking.
