Denver Maternity & Newborn Sessions that bring community
There is a movement happening. The more I talk about it, the more I dream about it, the more I see it happening not just in my life, but all over. There is a movement to create community around motherhood. A movement to stop the comparison and I’m better then you game. It’s about love, acceptance, truth, and non-judgement. We, as moms, are trying to do the very best we can. Some further along the journey then others, but all striving to give our kids the very best this world has to offer.
My dream to welcome new moms into this journey is coming alive in ways I never thought possible just 6 months ago. It was just an idea that gained momentum and now I can proudly say is changing and touching lives. I wanted to do something that went beyond photography and dug deep into the well of our souls. Discovering Motherhood is about ushering parents into parenthood with open arms. Sharing in their struggles and celebrating the new life entering the world. It’s about being real and not quieting our hearts because it might not measure up to what the world thinks we should be doing or thinking. Discovering Motherhood is about learning to listen to your own voice and trusting in it.
I’m so excited to be adding even more goodness to these sessions and giving mom and baby a little care package. It’s filled with things to heal the heart, calm the soul, and snuggle that new bundle of joy you’ve been waiting for. Every Discovering Motherhood client will receive one during their first session. My heart is in this bag and I hope it helps each new mom on their journey.
– Peppermint Hydrosol helps calm the mind and bring peace. It can be used before, during and after labor.
– Hush Little Baby essential oil rub. Not all babies are easy babies, this essential oil can help calm the fussy babe. (I’m a huge believe in oils, and no I don’t sell them.)
– Baby moccasins. I love these little mocs by Liam & Isabella
– Hello World organic onsie by Dream Little
– The perfect swaddle blanket by Modern Burlap
– A journal. Writing has become what I need to process big changes. Just writing down fears and challenges help the brain to process. We can find answers in our own writing, answers that we had no idea lived inside us.
– My own personal tote bag design and screen printed by yours truly.
I know without a doubt that Discovering Motherhood sessions are meant to help create community in a place that was once harsh. I pour my heart into each and every session and I’m so grateful for all my clients that have trusted me with their own hearts. I will continue to be as authentic and real as possible. Please share this with anyone you think could benefit from these sessions. New moms or moms having second or third, or fourth babes. If there’s one thing I’ve learned being pregnant with #2, is that my story is only beginning to unfold and another big change is just around the corner. Any time new life is being ushered in, it’s time to reflect and celebrate.
To celebrate adding the ‘Bringing Baby Home’ tote bags, I’m offering one family $500 off their Discovering Motherhood Sessions. I know there’s a family out there that needs this. They need the support and community now more then ever. I sincerely hope it’s you. I’m guessing this one family will step forward soon, please don’t hesitate or wait to email me. I can’t wait to hug and welcome you into parenthood with open arms and a community of like minded moms!
xoxo – Rachael
