Why milk baths? Ya know, I am not exactly sure what drew me to them other than I thought they were peaceful and beautiful and I loved the way they celebrated a pregnant body. Before I was ever pregnant I really wanted one for my own maternity photos. We took a ton of belly photos and felt like the milk bath was very different than anything I had ever really shot and wanted to give it a try. So I figured out what I needed and got Jeremy on board! He shot our first part of the series when I was 36 weeks pregnant and after that I knew this was how I wanted to show Fin's growth over the next year. It was something special that Fin and I could share and also a fun monthly family project lol ;) and at the end of the year we would have one heck of an album. We have taken SO many amazing photos of her this year but this series has been my ultimate goal. Each month we have racked our brains to come up with something a little different and more unique than the month before but similar enough for them to all flow. Some worked out better than others but overall it turned out just the way I had hoped. Each month has a different story about the fiasco of shooting it, or how Fin wanted to eat everything in the tub, or throw a fit, or even the arguments Jeremy and I had about the logistics of them. But every single month Jeremy was right there making sure he captured exactly what I wanted. He did a phenomenal job and cannot thank him enough for the patience he gave me this year for our 700 photo shoots. So here is one photo from each month. I kept the pose similar so you could see how much this little one has changed! Thank you for following along with us!! <3
