Oh, my maman!

I was cleaning today when I found (or rediscovered) this photograph taken of my mother when she was pregnant with me. I really believe this picture was what inspired me to focus alot of my work on maternity portraiture.

When I look at this photograph, it never fails; my heart flutters a little and I feel special, and a sort of connection to the unique love my mother had for me when I was still a stranger to her, yet the closest thing to her heart.

Consider these feelings, mums-to-be! It's not just about belly pictures; it's about the bond that is captured, and the gift you're giving your child in capturing this bond, not just now, but for years to come.
