Last year a few brave women allowed me to photograph this intimate relationship between mother and child. I am sure a few were nervous. Another human would be watching and taking pictures of them feeding their babes. I get it. I was nervous for them too. The results brought me to tears and gave me so much confidence in my own breastfeeding journey. At the time I was breastfeeding my almost two year old and was pregnant with my second. Yup. You most likely won’t see images of that. I didn’t feel it was acceptable by the world so I didn’t really broadcast that I had been nursing past one year. These women made me feel proud and happy to document this short time in their lives. Now, a year later these babes are walking and talking. My baby is a big brother. Time slow down a bit please. I write this and have the mom guilt going about 100 different things. Squeeze those babies. Love them. Treasure them. When they make you want to scream just remember, one day they will be too big for your arms to carry. This time in life is so precious and so short.
