"Play With Me Mommy" Mini Sessions

Short, lifestyle photo sessions exclusively for moms and their children. The perfect gift for Mother's Day.

Maybe I’m a bit bias but us moms rock. We’re the ones packing the lunches and drying the tears and barely containing melt downs (our own and our kids’) in Target. But a lot of time it just seems like we’re so busy keeping our head above water with the work of being a mom, it’s hard to find time to enjoy it.

Sure, we all make an effort to spend quality time with our kids because we love them and because we know we should (check that to-do off the list.) But when was the last time we did something with them just for the pure joy of it? When was the last time we luxuriated in the freedom of letting go of the dishes and the laundry and the diet and really, wholeheartedly jumped into their carefree world for a while?

It’s rare that I get in that space but when I do, my shoulders relax, my pain-in-the-ass-thinking-adult-brain turns off (blessed be!) and the time runs away unnoticed and untracked. It’s like one big, fat yoga exhale.

Being a kid is spectacular. No worries. No responsibilities. Everything taken care of for you.

Maybe you can’t live that life daily but I want you, mom, to have a little taste of all that, if just for a while.

And that’s my plan to celebrate you this Mother’s Day. Give your husband the honey-do list for a couple of hours, grab your kids and let’s have some fun.

Limited “Play with me, Mommy” mini sessions

Here’s how it works:

  1. Pick an activity – an ice-cream binge-eating fest, swinging on the swings at the park, jumping on the trampoline – anything fun that your kids like to do and that you can dive into to access your inner sense of childlike joy.
  2. Let’s go do it for just 45 minutes. (You can fit that into the family calendar, I betcha.)
  3. I’ll photograph it.
  4. You’ll get 5 digital images and an 8”x10” print of you having fun with your kids to put on your wall in time for Mother’s Day.

All this goodness will be yours for just $550 – more than 50% off!

Better still, ping the husband about this and drop a heavy hint about how this would be an amazing Mother’s Day gift for you. That way it will be fun without guilt. (THE BEST kind.)

Mother’s Day is Sunday, May 10th and I only have openings for 4 of these special sessions before then. So please, get in touch soon and let’s get some amazingly fun, carefree shots of you having super-awesome fun with your kids. Shots that they’ll want copies of on their own bedroom walls because their mom rocks!
