I am so excited to share the beautiful results of my Mini Portrait Session Event that took place at Melons and Clementines last Thursday! My lens was loving every single thing about these stunning Mamas and their sweet babies!

The Ultimate Bond

First of all... If you are not familiar with the amazing cafe/boutique that is Melons et Clémentines and you are a breastfeeding mother or know a breastfeeding mother or a mom-to-be, you really need to visit! Co-owners, Marie-Maude Grenier and Renée Boudreau have created the perfect, one-stop-shop for all your breastfeeding and baby-wearing needs. Situated in NDG, it is also a bustling cafe that has child-friendly food, a play area and a meeting room that hosts a variety of classes (and photo sessions!). This is the place for moms to meet up and enjoy a coffee or tea in a warm, comfortable and welcoming environment. 

Thank you ladies for hosting this amazing event!

Melons et Clémentines

The mamas and babies were truly wonderful and so trusting of me... the time flew by and the images showing up on the back of my camera were touching, tender and full of love! I knew I had to immediately download the images and get to work on the editing. I wanted to have them ready for showing clients in time for Mother's Day. Editing three sessions and getting them ready for the in-person viewing appointment in such a short time was a challenge but I am proud to say.... mission accomplished! 

It was hard not to tear up during the shoot at times...flooded with memories of my own breastfeeding days... the sweet bond between these Mamas and their babes proves just how important physical closeness is. 

Happy Mama, Happy Baby! How happy is this little guy? 

The antibodies, the nutrition, the nourishment, the comfort, the trust and the amazing bond that is established between mother and babe at the breast... aside from actually growing a human being inside you, breastfeeding truly is the second most amazing super power!

A full baby is a happy baby!

For those of you with older children you know that the old adage, "They grow up so fast" is true. It seems that all of a sudden your children are eating from a plate, talking up a storm and walking away from you... I am so happy to have captured the spirit of this early and precious time! And what a spirit on this little bundle of joy below ... doesn't she have the BEST expressions?

Nursing Mama and Sweet Cheeked-baby!

Sweet memories that will last a lifetime... Don't you just adore creamy baby skin? This mama and baby are just so lovely together. I can't wait to deliver their beautiful prints so they can get them up on the walls in the nursery to look at and admire through the years.

Beautiful Bond

Thank you, thank you, thank you to each of these mamas for trusting me to capture such intimate and tender moments. Your beautiful babies will be so grateful to look upon the two of you together in the years to come! 

Happy Mother's Day to all mothers celebrating... may you all be as spoiled as your children are with love on this day and everyday!
