Motherhood
One of life's greatest challenges and most rewarding gifts. Celebrate motherhood for all that you are, and how far you've come.
Swollen bellies. Tiny fingers. Early mornings. Warm milk. The first smile. Heads resting on shoulders. Imperfectly perfect bodies. Eternity. The loving gaze between mother and child.

Motherhood Favourites
Motherhood is like no other. It cracks you right open, demands your all. It leaves no layer of self untouched, yet all along, it is refining you through and through. There is a time where you look back and realise how much you have grown, alongside the little one beside you, still tugging at your hand, but finding their feet. The days are long but gosh the years now seem to fly, each one a little lighter as you learn to pick your battles, and make the most of the beauty right in front of you. You now see joy in the most ordinary of places, the simplest of things - and no words can quite express how much your family holds your heart. Let me help you remember all of this - for it is all worth remembering. Tealilyphotography specialises in tender motherhood portraiture on digital and analogue film mediums in Sydney, Australia and Singapore.
