Motherhood Collective l vol. 7

Every year, January 1st, I wake up with a new hope for a great year. I joyfully start to search inside my soul to see what goals I can make to enrich my life. This year my resolution included taking more pictures of me with my kids, another was to become a younger me. Yes it’s possible! Healthier eating, exercise, and a better attitude. Well we are past the halfway mark and I have to say I’m proud of my progress. Had you seen me a year ago you might agree. Sometimes being a mom, working a full (plus) time job, and running a photography business, well… “everything self” kind of takes a back seat. Seriously I went an 8 month stretch without getting my hair done. I gained 15lb (and I was already overweight), and life was wearing on me. I was tired All-The-Time. Working sometimes from from 5am to as late as 3am. I felt I had no time with my family either. I might have been a little bit of a mess. (it happens). So this year I planned vacations with my family, with my husband, and with my girlfriends. I’ve gone to more movies this year than in the last 5 put together. I’ve worked with some close friends on self discovery and soul cleansing, and have also started working out, eating clean, and taking on less work and giving myself to my husband, kids and ME. I-Feel-FANTASTIC! I’ve lost some of my weight, I’m looking and feeling younger, and I’m happy! Not just the kind of happiness that comes when the scale says I can be 😉 but the soul cleansing confident refreshed kind of happy! I’m so excited to keep my resolutions going and see where this year takes me!

Thinking of spring? Feels like we haven`t had winter here yet with this record breaking heat in December, but I`m feeling ready for longer days, early morning walks, flowers budding and signs of new life.

Motherhood stretches you, changes you, fills you in ways nothing else can.

Motherhood stretches you, changes you, fills you in ways nothing else can.

These are the days when time both stretches and disappears. One day blends into the next, and suddenly they’re a month old.

2025, you were full in the best way.
This year in the studio looked like little fingers wrapped around mama’s hand, brand new babies settling into safe arms, tiny smiles turning into belly laughs, and families learning how to just be together long enough for it to show.
I’m still undone by how fast it all goes.
Thank you for trusting me with your season.
For showing up tired, hopeful, pregnant, postpartum, joyful, tender, and real.
These highlights are a little love letter to the families I got to work with in 2025.
Here’s to more connection, more presence, and more moments that actually matter.

Eight years of tradition.
Eight years of families walking through these doors, year after year.

Some of these kids have been coming since they were babies. Some have grown up and moved on, and that feels just as meaningful. Being a small part of their childhood memories is something I’m truly grateful for.

Here’s a glimpse into a full day of quiet moments, nervous smiles, whispered conversations, and the calm magic that happens before Santa even says hello.

I’m deeply grateful to the families who trust me with this tradition, and to the Santa who has shown up year after year and become part of so many childhood memories.

When I first started this, I had no idea how it would be received. I’m so grateful it’s become part of so many families’ holiday traditions.
