A couple of weekends ago I did some Mother's Day mini sessions in my Seattle studio. It is so wonderful to photograph the natural connection between a mother and her child, whether they are 6 months old, 16 years old, or 60 years old. As mothers, too often we are the one behind the camera instead in front of it. We deserve to be documented because we, as mothers, as so very important. This little lady happened to be 6 months old. I love the candid feel of just playing around on a bed because that's something I did so frequently when my children were babies. I absolutely love having my studio for this age of baby because we don't have to worry about pokey grass, bugs, or the hard ground.

Photographing motherhood must be in the air lately because I have two maternity sessions this weekend and my last 5 client inquiries have been for maternity photography!

Aren't these two just beautiful?! Sweet baby E was so curious about my camera!
