I found a call for entry for a photography show with the theme of “Like a Mother.” I said to myself, Ooh, that’s such a rich topic, ripe for so many possibilities! I didn’t have any existing work that felt like it worked, so I put out a model call in a local Facebook group. I got a number of replies and realized I could do so many interesting things! Because, of course, motherhood is different for every single mother.

I’ve created a handful of images so far:

The Calm in the Storm

 

Pregnant Mom of a Toddler Portrait at home
Their Home

 

Gravity

 

Comfort
