my experience as a new mom
I had my first child 18 years ago and I will never forget all the emotions surrounding being a new mom. I knew I wanted to savor every moment I had with my new baby and never forget them.
As she grew, I couldn’t believe how quickly she changed from the flaky skin to the umbilical cord falling off. That is when I first realized how important it is to make time for having pictures of your baby taken. I made sure to capture them of her and knew I wanted to do the same for other new moms.
Having a newborn is life changing. It is important to schedule your newborn session prior to having your baby because you’ll be so busy enjoying time with your bundle of joy the time can easily slip by and you may miss it. You will be relieved that you made the decision in advance to capture your baby. Also, it is important for you to officially be in the photographs with your baby and never forget that special bond that you had together from the beginning.

reviews from clients

"Oh my goodness! You never disappoint with your ability to capture such loving and honest moments of our growing family. These photos are so special to us and I am amazed at your ability to find the sweetest moments amidst the chaos of three kids and two very tired parents! We will forever cherish these first images of our complete family. We are so thankful to have worked with you and your family since we first became engaged and we look forward to making more memories with you in the future!"
"Working with Forty Seven Moments was/is a dream. I did maternity photos as well as newborn, so far. During both sessions Rachel was prepared, had outfits for myself (while pregnant) and for my toddler and swaddles and head bands for my baby to use. In preparation for the photo shoots she was responsive and helpful with any questions I had. She was so patient and kind and helped me with poses with guiding tips (def not a natural in front of the camera and made me feel less awkward!). The photos were beyond gorgeous. We received them in a very timely manner and they are clean, bright and truly captured the love of my growing family. I HIGHLY recommend. You will not be disappointed."

I’ve been a mom for 19 years and a small business owner for over 20… and somehow, both journeys can still feel surprisingly lonely at times.
That’s why I was immediately drawn to @meetatkinn and its mission to create a space where moms can find real connection — whether they’re working, returning to work, building a business, or simply figuring it all out as they go.
Last weekend, I had the honor of visiting KINN as a vendor at their Community Baby Shower, and it was such a meaningful experience. From the moment I walked in, there was an overwhelming sense of warmth and community.
I loved sharing the heart behind Forty Seven Moments Photography, hearing other moms’ stories, connecting with fellow business owners who serve growing families, and meeting other photographers along the way.
There’s something really special about women coming together to support one another in every season of motherhood.
I already know I’ll be back at KINN, and I hope I get to see you there too 🤍

One of my favorite parts of the First Year Collective Membership is getting to document every beautiful stage from maternity all the way through the first birthday session.
By the time we reach the one-year milestone, I’ve watched this family grow, change, and settle into life together in such a meaningful way.
These sessions become so much more than photos over time, which is what makes the final session feel so special.

I have photographed many infants over the years, and each time it’s incredibly special.
No two babies are ever the same.
No two stories are ever the same.
But every single time, I’m reminded just how extraordinary these early days are and how important it is to hold onto them.
