MEET YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER,
M a r i a h W i l l i a m s.
“As I’ve learned as a wife and mother, each season can look so different from one minute to the next. That’s the preciousness of life; and that is the exact space I desire to work in.
Part of my creative process is fully immersing myself into your world, so that I may experience every detail from your unique perspective. I go where you go, do what you do, and feel what you feel. The result? Photographs and films that authentically represent you, in settings that have meaning.”
ON THE BLOG
Let’s be real. Marriage, birth, & parenthood are both beautiful & challenging. Life can kindly or dramatically change from one minute to the next. Sometimes you feel ready for it & other times you feel completely overwhelmed - needing your tribe to help encourage & at times, guide you through it. This blog is a collection of stories about real marriages, women, & families who share similar experiences & life stages, but tell them in their own unique ways. My prayer is that you will laugh, cry, & celebrate alongside them & maybe even relate to them - reminding you that you are not alone. Enjoy!

Could I live a life that showed both her AND my little boy how much I loved them? How would my heart grow to love her when I loved Luca so much? How would I fiercely love my son and take care of her at the same time?…”

FROM A DOULA’S PERSPECTIVE: a transfer from natural beginning birthing center to st. david’s north hospital in austin, texas
“…Katie was a beautiful example of strength and resiliency. On paper, nothing that happened during her birth went according to ‘plan’.
