When your friend calls and says "I'm picking my kids up from school, let's go to the beach!" You drop everything and go to the beach!
That's what happened last Thursday.
An afternoon on and empty beach with sweet friends was a great way to spend a spring day.
The water was chilly but kids didn't seem to mind and spent most the day in the waves.
This session is from last years National Breastfeeding Month sale. Her photos can be seen on my main page but I just noticed I hadn't blogged them yet.
This mama radiated motherhood at her session with me. Her gentle parenting (and perfect livingroom window light) quickly became the highlight of our session when Westley was more interested in checking me out than nursing.
The thing I love about nursing sessions is they are so much more than pictures of a baby at the breast. They show a bond and connection between a mother and her child. Older nurslings are often distracted by my camera at nursing sessions but I take my time and photograph them playing and cuddling with their mothers as well as nursing.
