Utah Motherhood Photographer | Jess and Stella

Being a motherhood photographer is an absolute honor! Every time I have the privilege to work with a mother and her children, I feel so honored! As a motherhood photographer, I see how hard moms work and I think they deserve all the credit in the world. It’s such a gift to witness the love they have for their children and to be able to document it for them. What a treat to have forever!

Mothers

There have been so many inspiring moms in my life. My own mom has been there for me countless times throughout my life. My business (and life!) truly would not be where it is without her. I can’t describe how thankful I am for her continual love and support!

The role of a mother goes far beyond nurturing; it is a source of inspiration, strength, and love. As a motherhood photographer, I am so grateful that I can help mothers remember this fleeting stage of life. Whether it’s your child’s tiny fingers wrapped around yours or those loving glances exchanged between you two, these moments make my heart melt! That’s why I love to photograph mothers and their children: each image is a celebration of the extraordinary within the ordinary, where the simplest moments hold so much meaning.

Jess and Stella’s Motherhood Session

Jessica is another woman who I look up to immensely. She’s been like a sister to me my whole life and it’s been such a joy to watch her become a mother. She inspires me every day!

During my Valentine’s Day Minis last year, I had the privilege of working with Jess and Stella for a simple and stunning motherhood session. We were able to capture such beautiful images! I spent weeks creating this hand-painted backdrop and I am so happy with how it turned out: soft and beautiful with the perfect amount of color for this motherhood session!

As I look back at these images nearly a year later, I still get a little teary-eyed! Being a motherhood photographer is so fulfilling, and preserving these special moments is something I wouldn’t trade for the world.

I am passionate about capturing the entire journey of motherhood, from maternity to newborn and family photos. If you’d like to schedule a session, please reach out to me through my website! If you want to see new work and keep up on my life and upcoming sessions, follow me on Instagram, or join my newsletter. Being a part of mothers’ journeys throughout Utah is an absolute honor!

Sending you all lots of love!
