Christine & Phoenix: A year of motherhood in bloom – Apple Grove Studio
The first year of motherhood changes you. It softens, stretches, transforms — in ways you never quite expect.
This session with Christine and her one-year-old son, Phoenix, was a quiet pause in the midst of that transformation. A chance to honour the beauty of this fleeting season — where babyhood fades and toddlerhood begins, and where love grows even deeper with every step.
No stiff poses. No pressure. Just the two of them, wandering by the water, wrapped up in each other.
It wasn’t just about celebrating Phoenix turning one — it was about honouring Christine, too. The mother she’s become. The journey she’s on. The love that weaves it all together.
