Beautiful Shoot for Motherbees

March 29, 2016 by Crystal Leave a Comment

I have been totally MIA for the past month and a half because work has been BONKERS! It’s great to have more work than you know what to do with but also quite challenging to strike any sort of balance. Today’s post is in keeping with the theme of trying to juggle work, motherhood and all the responsibilities of life while fueling my spent body with nutritious food (because, hey, jelly beans are A LOT quicker than chopping veggies). The lovely Sienna and I had the opportunity to meet and shoot with a local business, Motherbees, that specializes in providing homemade nutritious food to pregnant, nursing and new mamas. They make and deliver healthy food for moms, which as I’ve learned this past year, is all too important and quite difficult to accomplish on your own with a new baby. It turned out that the founder Heng Ou and I ran in some of the same doula circles (I’m not a doula but met many during my pregnancy) and know some of the same wonderful people. The world gets smaller every day:)

Here are some of the inspiring images we made of vibrant, nourishing foods. I love gorgeous, meaningful collaborations!!
