Why Every Mom Deserves a Motherhood Session
A Look at a Sweet Studio Moment in NE Minneapolis
Motherhood is a whirlwind of diaper changes, sleepless nights, endless snack negotiations, and heart-melting moments you wish you could bottle up forever. If you’re anything like me, you blink and suddenly your baby is a toddler asking existential questions about why the sky is blue. That’s where motherhood photography in Minneapolis comes in—a way to pause the chaos and capture the beauty of this fleeting season. Let me tell you about a sweet session in my studio last year and why you deserve to be celebrated as a mom.
A Memorable Studio Session with Mom and Her Baby Boy
Last year, I had the pleasure of photographing a mom and her adorable baby boy in my studio. She wore a stunning toile-patterned dress from Baltic Born—a client favorite that’s practically a studio MVP at this point—and her baby boy was the picture of cuteness in a blue knitted romper from Zara.
This session wasn’t just about looking fabulous (though they absolutely did); it was about capturing the love and connection between a mom and her little one. The way she gently held him, the way he smiled up at her, and even those candid moments where he tugged on her earring (babies always keep it real) were all reminders of why I love motherhood sessions. These aren’t just photos—they’re glimpses of a bond that only grows stronger over time.
Why Moms Deserve to Be in the Frame
Raise your hand if your camera roll is 99% photos of your kids and 1% blurry selfies with them (because toddlers are surprisingly terrible photographers). Moms, you deserve to be in the frame, too! Studies show that taking pictures captures more than just memories—it strengthens connections and tells your story. Motherly explains it beautifully here.
Motherhood sessions are all about celebrating you. The messy buns, the endless coffee refills, the love you pour into your family every day—it’s worth documenting. And no, you don’t need to lose those last few baby weight pounds or wait for the perfect time. The perfect time is now because your kids already think you’re perfect.
Timeless Keepsakes for the Whole Family
One of my favorite parts about motherhood photography in Minneapolis is creating timeless keepsakes that you’ll treasure forever. Imagine flipping through an album 20 years from now and seeing how little your baby once was, how they looked at you like you were their whole world. (Spoiler alert: you were—and still are!)
These photos aren’t just for you, though. They’re for your kids, too. One day, your baby boy will grow up, and these images will remind him of the love and care that shaped his childhood. Plus, they’re perfect for embarrassing him in front of his prom date. Win-win.
The Studio Wardrobe: Stress-Free Style
Let’s be honest: picking outfits for a photo session can feel like a second job. That’s why my studio wardrobe exists—to make your life easier and your photos look amazing.
The toile-patterned dress Mom wore during this session is one of my go-tos for a reason. It’s elegant, comfortable, and looks stunning in photos. And the baby boy’s knitted romper? Pure charm. The best part? You don’t have to scour the internet or the mall for the perfect look—it’s already here, waiting for you.
A Sneak Peek at This Year’s Motherhood Appreciation Event
This year, I’m excited to transform my annual Motherhood Event into something extra special—an Appreciation Event to celebrate the amazing moms I’ve had the privilege to photograph! It’s likely happening in May (just in time for those Mother’s Day vibes) and, as always, will take place in my cozy studio.

It’s a day to focus on you, filled with love, laughter, and the chance to create even more beautiful memories.
