Birth Photography, Pregnancy Fashion and Financial Savings for Baby!

Our Belly Basics - All Things Prenatal week 2 was a fun interactive week with all our guests. Our soon- to - be Mamas heard about Birth Photography, Saving for your child's education, and how to make your wardrobe last through and post pregnancy!

Julie Miller owner and photographer from Jewel Image Photography joined us and introduced the expecting ladies to her passion - Birth Photography. Taking discreet pictures to capture the true raw emotions of labor and delivery is one thing Julie wishes someone captured for her during her 4 deliveries. Being able to provide families with a time lapsed book and video of the many stages of labor is an amazing gift to give your child as the memories fad and the small details are lost.
