Capturing Authentic Moments: A Guide for Moms of Neurodivergent Children
As a mom to a Neurodivergent child myself, I know firsthand how every family’s story is uniquely vibrant. It’s made up of moments—big and small—that deserve to be cherished and celebrated. That’s what I strive to capture in every session: the heart of your family’s journey, just as it is.
My Approach: Focused on Your Family
My goal is simple: to create an environment where your family feels valued, seen, and safe. I understand the diverse needs of Neurodivergent individuals, and I tailor each session to honor those needs while capturing the beautiful connections that make your family who you are.
How to Prepare for Your Session
Let’s chat beforehand: If there are specific needs or concerns, feel free to reach out so I can be ready to accommodate them. I want this session to be as relaxed as possible for everyone involved.
Timing is key: We’ll schedule the session around your child’s routine so they’re comfortable and at ease.
Comfort items are welcome: Whether it’s a favorite toy, book, or activity, familiar items can help make the session feel like home.
Sensory preferences matter: If there are any sensory sensitivities or aversions, just let me know—I’ll adjust accordingly to make the environment as comfortable as possible.
The Session: A Safe, Flexible Space
During the session, we’ll keep things relaxed and flexible. Need a break? No problem. Need to switch gears? Let’s do it. My goal is to create a space where your child feels free to be themselves, where the focus is on capturing real moments—not perfection.
Authenticity Over Perfection
I don’t believe in stiff poses or forced smiles. The beauty of your family lies in its authenticity—in the giggles, the quiet moments, and the connection that binds you together. Those are the moments I want to capture because they tell the truest version of your story.
Honoring Your Journey
To moms of Neurodivergent kids: I see you. Your journey is beautiful, vibrant, and worthy of being celebrated. Through photography, I hope to honor your family’s unique story—just as it is, full of love, resilience, and joy.
Let’s create something real together.
