Woman to Mother

Firstly we devote our time and energy into our pregnancies, but what about that postpartum period. The short 6 weeks after birth where our hormones are rampant. We are sleep deprived. Submerged in the unconditional love of a newborn bubble. Furthermore our bodies are experiencing massive adjustments. However it’s something that is often overlooked. Especially for first time mumma’s who are trying to find their sea legs. Consequently as a westernised society have lost touch with the women centred community care. Which allows a new mum to transition into motherhood. But this is the most important time for mother and baby to slow down and bond.

The First 40 Days

The first 40 Day – the essential art of nourishing the new mother by Heng Ou, Amely Greeven and Marisa Belger is an amazing resource that explains the importance of nurturing the postpartum experience. The book is filled with an abundance of recipes that help warm and heal the womb. Rebalance hormones and boost lactation. It gives helpful tips on slowing down and replenishing the new mother.

Postpartum Rituals

There are an abundant of traditional and modern day rituals that you can easily incorporate into your postpartum experience. To encourage healing and replenishment. Castor Oil Packs are an amazing and easy thing to do postpartum. Castor oil packs detoxify the womb area, increase blood flow, bring warmth and reduce pain. Simply soak a cloth into castor oil. Pop it on your womb area with a hot water bottle. Relax and recharge for ten minutes whilst it works its magic. Finally another amazing ritual. Rubbing black sesame seed oil onto your womb. Nonetheless this is so easy to do in the morning and at night to help promote warmth to your womb.

With just a little bit of preparation you can set up an amazing postpartum healing period. By incorporating, warmth, retreat, support, rest and ritual. You will leave the early days of postpartum completely rejuvenated.

South Gold Coast QLD Newborn Photographer | Nass’s Newborn Session

Oh so creamy and dreamy Nass’s newborn session was! Nass’s mama came to me and explained that she wanted all creams, beiges and neutrals for her baby boys photography session. Oh boy I was in my element, creating a set up to mama’s requests! I love it when clients lean towards neutral colours. It makes for timeless images.

Nass was a calm baby, he slept his entire session. He was happy to be swaddled for our prop poses but also loved some of the nudie table poses. A content little boy, we were able to achieve so many different poses for his mum and dad to look back on for years to come! Nass was the perfect size baby, ‘well all baby’s are the perfect size’. His little toes and hands were just the sweetest to capture. Of course we can’t forget his little puckered lips! It’s the tiny details that we look back on and remember how small our babies once were!

For Nass’s posed images I got creative and set up lots of dried flowers and incorporated all of the natural textures. There is just something so earthy when utilising baskets and dried goods. The tones that the baskets and dried flower combined make are just the perfect neutral combination. Plus who doesn’t love a baby in a basket!

To complete the session we included mama and dad in some family shots. Mama was just stunning and they paired their outfits perfectly for the look that we were aiming to achieve. We wrapped Nass back up in the stretch jersey swaddle from the princess and pea prop shop, and continued to capture timeless memories for his family.
