I just finished the live run of my Life in the Shadows course last week, and it’s time for some editing catch up! I took this a couple weeks ago before that snow pile doubled in size and the concrete long disappeared. Overheard from my kid’s today: “Ughhhh I can’t wait for summer!!!!”. My sentiments exactly guys! I miss that summer light and the freedom to roam! . #lifeintheshadowscourse . Welcome to our storyteller’s loop.

My crazy strong 5 year old. 😳 Can you tell I’m obsessed with light pockets this time of year?? The cold is getting to us- we take advantage of every warm spot we see!

I love profile images like this. ❤️ Believe it it not, this was shot at my dining room table in the middle of a sunny morning.

Today’s my last day over at Hello Storyteller, talking about my course “Life in the Shadows”.... which is all about pulling together light, moment, storytelling, and editing to create art. ❤️ Watch a peak of the PDF in my stories! . . #magicofchildhood #cameramama #momazine #oureverydaymoments #ourcandidlife #illuminatechildhood #kidsforreal #atdiff_kids #beyondthewanderlust #blacknwhite_perfection #magicofchildhood #bnw_captures #bnw_greatshots #bnwphotography #follow_this_light #galleryoflightfeature #dearphotographer #infinity_children #ig_yourshot #ig_exquisite #instagood #featurememozi #theilluminatedartist #bnw_captures #bnwmood #hellostoryteller #instagood10k #thelightwithin #trs_lowlight #tws_lowlight #jjitskids_lowlight
I had a goal of redoing this shot this month, before my baby hits 6 months and starts solids. First off, I could have chosen a calmer image, but I went for real life instead. 😉 It blows my mind that this baby was grown by me for 9 months inside, and nourished entirely by me for this last 5+ months.... that I made this chunky little thing. (No offense intended to those who nourished their babies in other ways, by choice or otherwise, or whose babies came to them by different means). It’s just an amazing thing to think about. My body is still healing and still has a long road back to whatever the new normal will be. Exercise isn’t even on my radar, and I eat whatever doesn’t upset his tummy, which rules out veggies and dairy. 🤷🏼‍♀️ But I need to give this body thanks for the job it’s done, and done well. I mean, look at those thighs!! 😍😍 (Swipe for original image at 2 days old). • • Welcome to our #motherhoodselfportraitloop. • • Motherhood is the most difficult, rewarding, exhausting and exhilarating job in the world. The moment you become a mother, the entire framework of your existence changes. You hold that precious child in your arms and your heart, and you know in an instant that there is nothing in your life more important. But this time is so fleeting, they grow like wildflowers, and you joke with them to stop,... but they keep on growing and time slips by in the blink of an eye. One stage passes and it’s leaving is bitter sweet, but with every change comes new joys...So we search for a way to bottle it up, and keep it forever. • • Next up @yanliuphoto. . . #Getin52 #portraitsofme #tcp_52 #coi_mamamonday #thehonestlens #galleryoflightfeature #the_cic #gatherandtend #beunraveled #jj_portraiture #theechoesinside #p52radness #theechoeswithin #mynameismama #uniteinmotherhood #thefountcollective #ig_motherhood #storytellinghands #coi_mamamonday #writeyouonmyheart #eternalmotherhood #acupofmotherhood #momentsinmotherhood #dearphotographer #remarkablyimagined #_a_beautiful_you #t_c_c_thisisme
I think being a mom to a girl is one of the hardest things. Especially one who clashes with you so often. It’s beautiful and hard and ALL THE BIG EMOTIONS. I sure hope I’m doing some of it right. Anyone else have one that is just like you in the ways that drive you crazy, and opposite everywhere else?? 🤷🏼‍♀️ . . #cameramama #momazine #freelensing #thefreelensedproject #galleryoflightfeature #atdiff_kids #beunraveled #unraveledstudentfeature #clickpro #clickmagazine #childrenseemagic #let_there_be_delight #jj_its_kids #dearphotographer #featurememozi #themagicofchildhood #simplychildren #illuminateclasses #howiclick #gatherandtend #hellostoryteller #momswithcameras #moodyportraits #shotwithlove #loveourbigkids #magicofchildhood #our_everyday_moments #dpmagfaves
Hey friends, it’s me! ☝️I’m taking over @hellostoryteller the next few days, plus talking about myself and my course and giving away a couple things, so come say hi! 👋
This image could have gone so many different ways. I could have exposed the image brighter in the first place, I could have edited to be airy, I could have chosen to create a starburst instead of that soft flare.... there’s so many choices to be made. Mine side towards the dramatic and shadowy much of the time. If you want to learn how to find and use that light, make these kinds of choices, add creative elements, and much more- join me in my elective course “Life in the Shadows.” PRESALE LIVE NOW- link in my profile. 😘 . .

I didn’t plan this shot. I was a mess in day old clothes with no makeup and unbrushed hair, and I plopped my camera down on the bed and took the shot. And now there I am forever, nose to nose with my month old baby. ❤️ . . #Getin52 #portraitsofme #tcp_52 #coi_mamamonday #thehonestlens #galleryoflightfeature #the_cic #gatherandtend #beunraveled #jj_portraiture #p52radness #mynameismama #uniteinmotherhood #ig_motherhood #storytellinghands #coi_mamamonday #writeyouonmyheart #eternalmotherhood #momentsinmotherhood #dearphotographer #remarkablyimagined #_a_beautiful_you #t_c_c_thisisme #simplymothers #capture_your_stories #selfportraitphotography #selfportrait_society#thebeautifulstruggle #realmotherhoodseries #a_beautiful_you #emotiveportrait

I can’t resist one more of my favorites of these two. As disappointed as she was when she found out she was having yet ANOTHER brother, she lights up when he smiles at her. She makes a pretty good babysitter for this one, she’s quick to run in and fix his paci if I’m busy, and she’ll do anything to make him laugh. Sometimes the biggest age gaps make for the best siblings. . . #momazine #magicofchildhood #howiclick #hellostoryteller #our_everyday_moments #instagood10k #my_magical_moments #ig_motherhood #ourcandidlife #pixel_kids #atdiff_kids #embracingtheeveryday #uniteinmotherhood #letthekids #letthembelittle #kidsforreal #clickpro #inbeautyandchaos #thebloomforum #clickinmoms #featuremama #shared_joy #siblinghoodlove #dearphotographer #jj_its_kids #follow_this_light #featuremama #atdiff_kids #loveourbigkids #kidsforreal
