Episode 24: A Meditation for family photographers (Recenter yourself for your best work)

I'm Leah!

I’m obsessed with stories of family, creativity, and simple joys.  A nostalgia nerd, educator, wife, and mom of 3, I believe life’s most fun when you’re dreaming big and having kitchen dance parties.

Highlighted family and newborn photography sessions

This episode is airing originally in the fall, and because this podcast is specifically for family photographers, many of you are in your busiest part of the year. You’re traveling to a lot of shoots. Even if you don’t have a ton of family photography work right now, every time you do go to a shoot, it feels especially important. This is a meditation for family photographers you can pop in your earbuds or play in the car on the way to your session to help you recenter and get ready to make your best work.

Whenever you’re feeling swirly or like you’re running out the door from your own personal whirlwind and you just need something to help plug you back into your purpose, I hope you’ll play (or replay!) this episode and discover peace and potential. Allow these words to flow through you and rev you up to create a phenomenal experience for the families who have hired you.

Hi, I'm Leah.
Family photographer, writer, educator.

I’m  one of the first to meet your newborn baby, the one who won't judge your clothes baskets and unmade beds, and the one who can capture the way your husband looks at you with a twinkle in his eye after 12 years of marriage. I believe in honoring people and telling stories.

I believe art has the power to light up the world in dark places, starting at home.
