Matrescence.

The transition of a woman into motherhood. A journey filled with love, growth and remarkable transformation.

Unlike any other life experience, matrescence encompasses the physical, emotional, and psychological changes a woman undergoes as she nurtures new life. Matrescence is not merely the process of bringing forth a child; it is a metamorphosis of the soul, an evolution into a role that shapes one's identity, priorities, and outlook on the world. 

This is about creating an artwork that celebrates you. I never want you to forget this time, and all that you have accomplished. It is remarkable.

My pregnancy sessions are relaxed, I am there every step of the way to guide and support you. Partners are welcome, as are any other members of your family. 

We start this process with a planning session where together we choose the location and style of portrait that tells your unique story.
