The anticipation of a new addition to the family is a time filled with excitement, love, and sweet moments. And what better way to capture this beautiful chapter in a family’s life than through a heartfelt in-home maternity photoshoot? When little ones are involved, you can always expect the unexpected, and that’s precisely what happened during a recent maternity session where a toddler’s affinity for a particular book stole the show.

The beauty of this in-home maternity session lies not only in the perfectly captured moments but also in the unexpected, candid interactions that unfold when children are involved. Parenthood is a journey full of surprises, and this little one’s unwavering attachment to her favorite book, “Everyone Poops” served as a gentle reminder that these fleeting moments are what make the story of family so incredibly special.

This mom even emailed me to say her favorite pictures were the ones with the “Everyone Poops” book. I love that this family embraced the chaos and as a result has photos that truly capture this stage of their lives.
