So I just stopped capturing everything. When I open up my feed I see random meme screenshots, a few silly videos my kid recorded for her you tube channel, and items I photographed to sell on our local community boards. Sprinkled here and there are a photo of my dogs, or dinners, or unexpected family outing. But those are few and far between. I do miss the feeling of picking up my camera, but for some reason I...

In full transparency, pandemic life turned everything in my world a bit upside down. I've been focused on unschooling my daughter and giving any of my leftover capacity to our Momtography club community. Rewinding a bit ....waaaaaaay back in 2020 I had big dreams for Momtography Club. But with the decision to focus on schooling my kiddo through the pandemic - those dreams got buried in the necessity of keeping our mental and emotional health afloat.
2021-07-1310 minCapture What Matters#88 A Journey of Self-Worth and Discovery with Phyllis MyersI've been thinking a lot lately about what I'd like life to look like when this is all over. Admittedly, this pandemic seems to shine a light in the places we've been ignoring far too long. It's uncomfortable and it makes me question my confidence. Who am I? What do I value? How do I want to show up for myself and my family? Where do I concentrate my time and energy and resources right now? What is fair to expect of myself right now? A...

We're currently on day 13 of my daughter being home from school, and our governor here in Virginia just made the call that schools will be closed until the fall.

2020-03-3142 minCapture What Matters#85 Parenting With Curiosity And Creativity In Mind With Dayna AbrahamThree years ago, our daughter was diagnosed with ADHD and anxiety. Surprisingly, my reaction was not one of sadness or fear or worry. My immediate reaction was one of relief. Our kiddo's diagnosis brought me relief because it gave me permission to honor and advocate for who she is. Her diagnosis reminded me how lucky I am to mother a child who is so comfortable with her creativity, and it led me to my own ADHD diagnosis not too long after hers. Here at Momtography we are champions for imagination and creativity, not...
2020-03-1752 minCapture What Matters#84 Turning Creative Vision Into Fine Art Photography With Natalie AllgyerI am not a Barbie mom. The reason I'm not a Barbie Mom is that when my daughter asks me to sit and "play" with her– whether it be with her Barbies or lego or stuffed toys–I freeze. Imagination is not my superpower. And...I don't think I'm alone in this. As a mom, my guess is you are more accustomed to cycling through your endless to-do list or getting your family from point A to point B than expressing your creativity. Somewhere between childhood wonder and adult respo...

My guess is that you are no stranger to the complicated feelings of self-doubt, shame, and uncertainty that come with raising kids. The guilt creeps in in all sorts of ways. You find yourself endlessly wondering: am I doing this right? Am I ruining my child? Will this be the terrible moment in their memory 20 years from now? As a new mom nine years ago, I naively thought that as my own daughter got older, these guilty feelings would subside, but here we are. Honestly, sometimes I'm not...
