Mommy & Me Mini Session at Fair Weather Farms | Chesapeake, Virginia Photographer

There’s something incredibly special about capturing the bond between a mother and her child, and this mommy and me mini session at Fair Weather Farms in Chesapeake, Virginia, was no exception.

This sweet mama brought her little boy out for a moment just for the two of them—a time to laugh, play, and simply be together in front of the camera. I absolutely love that more and more mamas are taking the time to document these memories. As a photographer, being trusted to freeze these fleeting moments is something I never take for granted.

Their session was held just before a storm rolled in, adding a beautiful, moody touch to the backdrop. The sky gave us the perfect amount of drama while still letting this mama and her son shine with their genuine connection and joy. Their love and warmth were undeniable, even with the wind picking up and clouds rolling through.

Moments like these remind me why I do what I do. These are the kinds of memories that last a lifetime—raw, real, and filled with love.

If you’re a mama thinking about stepping in front of the camera with your little one, let this be your sign. These years go by quickly, and I’d be honored to help you preserve them.
