The Magic in Motherhood: Capturing the Mother-Child Connection with Brittany Grubbs - a podcast by Lisa DiGeso, The Milky Way

After a birth, all eyes are on the new baby. You take tons of pictures, make tons of memories, and try to soak up each moment before it passes. But as a baby grows, mom is also undergoing a life changing transformation, one that’s just as deserving of attention and documentation.

In this episode, I’m chatting with motherhood photographer Brittany Grubbs about capturing the natural beauty of the mother-child connection. Brittany is sharing how she found her passion for motherhood photography and how she turned it into the foundation of her business. She’s sharing her tips for helping clients feel comfortable and look natural on camera, as well as her process for styling her subjects. Plus, she’s explaining what to do when your subjects (children or adults) don’t want to cooperate.
