Photographed during our Motherhood Mini Sessions in St. Louis, Missouri, this moment captures everything we want to remember: the way they hold on tight, the way she lights up when they smile.
Because she deserves more than flowers. Treat her to a Motherhood Mini Session.
When it comes to Mother’s Day, most of us are on the hunt for a gift that actually means something. One that says “I see you. I appreciate everything you do.” But let’s be honest—candles burn out and jewelry gets tucked in a drawer.
What if this year, you gave a gift that she’ll never forget?
Here are three meaningful ways to gift a motherhood mini session this Mother’s Day—each one designed to celebrate her story, her love, and the legacy she’s building.
A Motherhood Mini Session – Just Her and the Littles
There is nothing quite like the quiet strength of a mother. A Motherhood Session captures that bond in the most heartfelt way—soft, honest, and real. These sessions are all about her connection with her children—no pressure, no forced smiles. Just genuine love in front of the lens.
Perfect for: Husbands, partners, or loved ones who want to give her a moment to be seen and celebrated—not just as “mom,” but as the heart of the family.
You’ll be giving her more than portraits. You’ll be giving her time—with her babies, in a space where she gets to be present, playful, and fully herself.
A Full Family Session – The Gift of Togetherness
Maybe it’s been a while since the last professional photos—or maybe she’s always the one behind the camera. A full family session is a beautiful way to honor this season of life and freeze it in time. We’ll capture the chaos, the cuddles, and the connections that make your crew yours.
Perfect for: Grown kids, partners, or even grandparents who want to create heirloom artwork that will hang in the family home for generations.
Bonus? It’s an experience in itself. Wardrobe styling, artwork consultations, and a relaxed session built around your family’s vibe—because this isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being you.
Taken during a spring family session in St. Louis, Missouri, this golden hour moment is a reminder of everything we never want to forget about childhood.
Bare feet on the grass, kids in motion, and laughter in the air—this is what it means to be present.

A Gift Card – Let Her Decide
Not sure what kind of session she’d love most? A gift card gives her the freedom to choose—from Motherhood sessions to full family sessions, or even milestone portraits with the kids. It’s flexible, thoughtful, and just personal enough.
Perfect for: Last-minute gifters (we got you), or those who want her to choose exactly what speaks to her heart.
Order by May 5th and we’ll mail you a beautifully packaged certificate—ready to slip into a card or present with brunch.
However You Gift It, Make It Matter
Every session with Laura Stansberry Photography is more than just pictures—it’s a chance to feel seen, celebrated, and connected. This Mother’s Day, give her something that lasts far beyond the day itself. Because she deserves to be in the frame.
