Motherhood photography. Because what could be MORE profound than the journey from pregnancy to motherhood?
Lolo & Noa both believe—wholeheartedly—that every mother’s journey into and through motherhood is worthy of being documented with gorgeous images that capture each stage along the way. We offer motherhood photography for all stages of this beautiful human experience!
We also feel so fortunate that many of the clients we have from our wedding photography business also become our motherhood photography clients and then family photography clients as their families grow! There’s something really special about documenting the lives of our photography clients in wonderfully raw and heartfelt imagery.
Types of motherhood photography sessions Lolo & Noa offer:
• Maternity Photography Sessions (indoor and outdoor)
• Newborn Photography Sessions (in-home)
• Mother & Baby Photography Sessions (in-home or outdoor)
• Mother & Children Photography Sessions (in-home or outdoor)
When Lois was pregnant with her daughter, she didn’t get any maternity photos (except one iPhone pic) and she has always regretted it—even now, 10 years later—so she has a special place in her heart for maternity photography.
And, since she missed out on her own maternity photos, she encourages every pregnant woman she knows to invest in herself with some maternity images!
Many mothers who have done maternity photos in Golden with Lois have told her that they didn’t think they actually needed them, until they got the images back and realized how precious they are.
Noa recently had her first baby and she thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to finally be in front of the camera for her own maternity photography session rather than shooting it this time!
For Noa, offering motherhood photography such as maternity photo sessions at the ocean in Victoria adds a sweet, calm, and peaceful element to her maternity images. It’s majestic, just like the mountains, but with an entirely different feel, from the light to the colors to the hues to the energy.
Let’s face it, newborns change EVERYTHING! Whether you’re having a baby for the first time or fifth, it’s still filled with profound emotion.
The bond between a mother and her child runs deep enough to touch her soul and nothing captures that bond as strongly as images taken in that first week or two of life.
While lots of baby photographers offer in-studio newborn photography in Golden BC, Lois prefers a more documentary style—a day in the life in your home—newborn session where she follows you with her camera and just captures the joy and struggle and beautiful chaos of it all.
Since Noa HAS a newborn, she knows all too well the precious connection between a mother and her baby in those first few weeks of life.
Those quiet moments—just sitting and holding your child in complete awe—and those crazy, no-sleep-for-days moments when it feels like you just want to shut out the world and take a long nap with your newborn...if they would ever settle down!
Booking an in-home newborn photography session in Victoria with Noa will get you a fresh-from-the-nursery mother who will totally understand what you’re going through and understand how to capture those precious (and unexpected) moments as they unfold.
After that initial “fresh session” of a newborn shoot, things really start to open up and change at the speed of light and that’s just another reason Lois offers mother and baby photography sessions in Golden.
Mother and baby photography showcases fleeting—yet beautiful and intimately unscripted—moments between you and your baby at each stage of development. And the BEST part of mother and baby sessions is that you don’t have to take any photos (because moms always end up taking the photos)—you can fully relax into your time with your baby while someone else captures the full experience and emotion of the connection with your baby.
One of Noa’s favourite types of motherhood photography sessions is mother and baby photography. Even before her little one was born, she enjoyed them.
Maybe it’s because we women seem to be drawn to that indescribable light that shines out of the mother and child bond and, for a photographer who is also a woman, capturing that light is completely irresistible. Or maybe it’s because she knew she’d be having children of her own someday soon and offering mother and baby sessions gave her future self some good insight of what was to come.
Whatever it is, mother and baby sessions are right up there as one of her favourite photography sessions to shoot.
Since her daughter is now 10, mother and children photography sessions have taken on new meaning for Lois. Sometimes, it can be tough to nail that kid down long enough to get some quality photos of the two of them just spending time together, doing their mother-daughter thing.
It makes Lois so happy to photograph other moms and their children with Mother and Children photo sessions. It’s so much easier for an experienced motherhood photographer to capture the beauty and bond of a mother and her children than it is for a mother to try to capture it herself.
You deserve to be in the middle of everything, surrounded by your children and living in the moment, without trying to work your phone and fit everybody in.
Just like Lois in Golden, Noa loves shooting mother and children photo sessions in Victoria BC. She also believes that mothers deserve to be pampered and put in the spotlight while they interact with their children, enjoying each other and being fully present.
There are SO MANY amazing places in Victoria to go—for a mother and children photography session—that allow you to relax and just be with your children in the moment. You can even have your mother and children photo session in your own home and Noa can come to you.
Whatever option you choose and wherever you go, you can bet that you’re going come away with some beautiful memories that you’ll definitely want to hang on your walls.
