Thanks for all of my Insta friends for voting on which session I should blog next! You guys voted for Allie and her girlies...and I was pretty happy about that! Allie is a single mama to her twin girlies, who have very different and strong personalities that completely came through during the session! As I was getting to know Allie before the session, I asked her a couple of questions about motherhood as a single parent. While the hardest part for her right now about being a single mama is the fact that it was unexpected and she is starting from the ground up, she also said the best part is that no matter how many times she might breakdown and feel like giving up, she has two little ones cheering her on. Parenthood is hard and beautiful all at the same time. I am so glad Allie won my giveaway on Instagram, she so deserved to have her parenthood journey captured.
