Breastfeeding

After we’ve chatted and decided on a time and date and you have agreed to my terms & conditions this is what you can expect from our sessions.
I had a wonderful session with Ann and my little boy, Thomas. I was a little nervous before she arrived, not knowing what we would do and that Ann's style is so beautiful and raw. Taking my clothes off in front of someone after, in my new postpartum body also daunted me. I should never have worried. I found myself so relaxed, feeding him during the session, moving intuitively and just being with my baby. The whole session was so natural and relaxed, I would recommend that every Mum does this. I have beautiful photos of my little boy and I, ones that would otherwise, just be memories as they are so personal. I will treasure them always. Thank you Ann.

These sessions are so incredibly special to me. There is something so sacred about the breastfeeding/chestfeeding dyad, it creates a connection that is so powerful and capturing this bond is something that I absolutely love to do. I love capturing the serenity of these moments, the milk-drunkedness, the little grasping hands and the feelings of safety and love all bottled up into one moment. As a breastfeeding mother myself I know how fleeting this time really is in our lives and seeing images of me and my little ones nursing are some of my most precious images.

You can see my MILK project here, a personal project very close to my heart.

It was all about sisterhood and celebrating where we are at in our motherhood journeys and it just genuinely filled me up with so much joy! …
