I was there when River was brought into this world.
The immense power and strength, mentally and physically that I saw from his mother that day changed me.
I realized then, that as woman, no matter what the circumstances, we power through.
Taylor taught me that.
Now as a mother of a happy, wonderful one year old boy, I am still learning from her.
I quietly observed their connection with my camera.
I documented his beaming personality, her patience and the incredible bond they have as mother and son.
Its been a wonderful year getting to know them,
celebrating their beginnings and all the incredible moments that came after it.

Here are some of my favourites from a beautiful motherhood session,
following a busy toddler exploring in the grass
and watching the sun set behind the moutains.
