Loving on my babies

Stone-1

Before every session I ask my mamas "Ok, you say to yourself, 'I've got a session with Mae Burke, I need to make sure I have *this* picture.' Now, what comes to mind?" Over the years the responses I've received have changed from "Well there's this one I saw on Pinterest" to "...Just me loving on my babies!" It means something different to every single mom, but somehow universally the same.

Excited to keep shooting in today's soft grey skies and surging tides

Fosters on the Bay

Wrapping up my summer with this gorgeous little family was just what I needed. I shot Samantha's maternity session last December and have been anxiously awaiting to get her new little nugget in front of my lens.

They are genuine, funny, (resilient parenting) people and I am so excited to get to watch their family grow.

Maybe She's a Wildflower

The young woman that she is growing to be - one that seeks to be obedient to her parents and Lord, one that is kind and girly and full of wonder - makes my heart ache with joy. Oh my little wildflower, I love you so.
