Motherhood

As you know, last year I have become a mother.

It was indeed the most remarkable and unforgettable year, becoming a mother, having a daughter.

It’s been a time of growth, acceptance and much-needed self-love.

It’s incredible to see a new story come to life, to witness it from the early stages, my daughter’s story, to be part of it intimately and also an active role as a parent. It’s a thrilling experience.

I’ve learned so much about life, again and again, it is like getting a new understanding of the world.

While I love my baby immensely and spending time with her has been the main pass of time in the last year, it is time to go back to work.

It is calling me, to be fully fulfilled, there is a side of me which aches to create again. Doing my life’s work, creating with a camera is essential to me.

Of course, my mission feels even more important now, having a daughter. I want every woman to realise her beauty is unmistakable and to understand that her role in the world is both irreplaceable and imperative.

My promise to you is that once you step in front of my camera, this will happen.

Leaving a legacy behind has become to me more important than before, knowing there’s someone to leave it behind to. I will make it a priority to get behind the camera more.

Returning to work will be a balancing act, and I will probably fail a couple of times in the beginning, and that’s ok, I’m new to all this. I hope you’re going to understand my clumsiness. It will all take time.

Anna allows me to play on Tuesdays and Wednesdays for now, and those are my studio days dedicated to you.
