Why Maternity?

   To me maternity photos show the unconditional love between mother and child. Amazing how natural and easy it is to love someone she has yet to meet. Being a mother doesn't start when your baby is born, it starts from that first moment you know.

It is no different for fathers, and yet so much more.

From that first moment, they realize there will be someone that he loves more than life itself, someone that he will put first before anyone else, provide for the best he can, and try to be the best dad to forever.

Granted, during the pregnancy he may take the brunt of the occasional mood swing. He might be a late night ice cream deliverer one day or a on-call massage therapist the next (for those 5am leg cramps), but to him you are the most amazing, strong creature he knows. You are growing a little person in that bump of yours, a little person that may have your eyes but has his smile...

and he will not change it for the world.

I know most women, once they are close to their due date, don't feel like putting on pants let alone having their photos taken but maybe, just maybe....

....it would mean the world to him.

Super Heros with blanket fortresses, hosting tea parties with princesses, making their favorite cookies (Smartie - but only the red ones), jumping on the bed, reading a favorite book....over and over again...

and giggles...lots and lots of giggles.

It documents your life, raw, chaotic, unscripted, unrehearsed, temper tantrum filled, never dull life.

You may think that these moments are not that important, you live them everyday.

It may be true now...

but when they become memories lost - trust me they are.

They are the ones you want to remember forever.

"We take photos as a return ticket to a moment otherwise gone. We take photos to recall - with greater vibrancy - those experiences that have shaped and made us. We take photos to bridge distance and shorten time, to lend legacy to the little things and life to the forgotten.

And we take photos to feel like artists on a Tuesday – and storytellers on a Sunday."
