Moms, let’s be honest—how often are you the one behind the camera, snapping all the memories but barely in any of them? I get it. You're busy loving, guiding, feeding, planning, and giving all of yourself to your family. But here's the truth: your children want to remember you, too. Not just what you did for them, but what it felt like to be wrapped up in your arms, see your smile, and be loved by you.

As a Reading, PA photographer, I’m here to make sure that happens—and Mother’s Day is the perfect time to make it a priority.

The Gift of Being Seen | Reading, PA Photographer

One day, your little one will flip through a photo album and see your smile—the way your eyes lit up when you looked at them, the way you held them close. These images become more valuable with time, not less. They’re a reminder of the love, the connection, the everyday magic you lived through together.

Having updated portraits with your children isn’t just a treat—it’s an act of legacy. These photographs will outlive the baby teeth, the tantrums, and the toy-strewn living room. They’ll show your children where they came from and how fiercely they were loved.

And here's the best part: the experience doesn't have to feel stressful or stiff. In fact, with me—it’s the exact opposite.

A Storybook Experience, Made Just for You

From the moment you reach out, I’m here to guide you every step of the way. My Motherhood sessions are crafted to make you feel relaxed, radiant, and completely celebrated.

Imagine this...

You arrive at my makeup artist studio in Reading, PA, a quiet morning carved out just for you. The coffee is warm, the music is soft, and you’re greeted warmly by Veronica. First stop? The beauty chair. My professional hair and makeup artist will take care of you—because this is your moment to feel taken care of, too.

Then, we head to my Reading, PA photography studio for wardrobe, where you’ll find an array of client closet gowns for women and girls. Think flowing fabrics, flattering cuts, and timeless styles that photograph beautifully. Whether you want something ethereal and romantic or bold and elegant, I’ll help you find the perfect fit. (No shopping, no stress—just magic.)

During your session, I guide every pose and interaction. No awkwardness here—just gentle direction that results in magazine-worthy images that show off not just how beautiful you are, but how loved you are. Your child’s hand in yours. The way they snuggle into your shoulder. The way they laugh when you kiss their cheek.

And the best part? You don’t have to wait weeks to see it all come to life. We’ll sit down that very same day for your viewing and ordering appointment, where you’ll get to relive your session, choose your favorite images, and design beautiful prints or albums that will become treasures in your home.

Mother’s Day Special – Through May 18, 2025

To celebrate YOU this Mother’s Day, I’m offering something extra special. When you book a 2025 Motherhood session between now and May 18, you’ll receive a $200 gift card toward prints. That’s $200 to spend on gorgeous wall art, fine art albums, or keepsake prints that you and your children will cherish for years to come.

Whether you're marking a first Mother’s Day or just realizing it's time to get back in the frame, this is your moment. Let’s create something that lasts longer than the sleepless nights and snack crumbs on the floor.
