Fraser Valley Maternity Photography – Stephanie Lauren Photography

Let’s be real, being a mom is hard.

Your life is not your own, well it is, but it’s become so much more outward focus than inward. I constantly ask myself “am I being kind, patient, loving in my responses as their mama?”.

Often when I stop amidst the chaos I can hear their childhood ticking away in the background, barely audible, I feel the sense of time moving.

This feeling is what made me a photographer, how I look at the everyday with wonder. I try to look through new eyes on how I could create magic through the imagination of my children and future clients.

Whether it’s playing with your kids on the floor or saying goodbye to a season of their life graduating into adulthood. I want to photograph the in between, just as well as the big moments for you.

You deserve to be remembered throughout their lifetime in authentic candid photographs. We don’t take very many things with us through our lives, but pictures… they are passed on for generations.

As a photographer, I’m mindful of the fleeting moments I might otherwise miss, yet grateful for those I’ve captured.

Give the Gift of Memories

Dawn and Ryan are the perfect combination of joy and strength. I was honoured when they asked me to photograph their maternity photos. These two have so much history and beautiful memories that I have yet to discover, getting to know them a little more during our evening together at Stave Falls was the highlight of the session.

We started at the spot they said their vows to one another and as we went along they showed their beauty and joy throughout each photo.
