Maternity
Whether it’s your first baby or sixth, pregnancy changes you. It’s a simultaneous self-emptying and deeper embodying that takes an immense amount of courage, every time. It’s an honor to photograph women and their partners and families in the uniquely liminal space of pregnancy.
“At the back of our brains, there is a forgotten blaze or burst of astonishment at our own existence. The object of the artistic and spiritual life is to dig for this submerged sunrise of wonder.”
- G.K. Chesterton
Rocio and Adam’s maternity session at Elizabeth Furnace in Fort Valley, VA
“If we had a keen vision and feeling of all ordinary human life, it would be like hearing the grass grow and the squirrel's heart beat, and we should die of that roar which lies on the other side of silence.”
- George Eliot
