Becoming a mother is a unique moment in every woman's life. It doesn’t matter if it’s the first or third pregnancy - every pregnancy is different and special in its own way.
The pregnancy journey is not just about the baby’s growing inside you, but it’s about your change as well. And no, I’m not just talking about your body change. I know when I got pregnant, everything changed for me: my mindset, my feelings . . .
Halfway through my pregnancy, I developed pelvic girdle pain and it was very painful for me to move, walk and turn from one side to the other on the bed. So I wasn't very mobile. This was over a decade ago.
I started to take self-portraits of my growing belly and when I looked back at those photos I could see myself with different eyes. I was seeing the power and the strength of my body. I wasn't seeing a miserable woman restricted in her movement, but a strong woman who was creating life and whose body was working hard for it.
It was simply empowering and made a positive impact on me.
This is the same impact I want to give to other women too.
I decided to specialize in maternity and newborn photography and show pregnant women how beautiful they are and how powerful their body is.
Because every woman deserves to have beautiful photos to remind her power.
