F​irst was the trend for engagement photographs, then pregnancy photographs, and now we’re seeing a surge in professional breastfeeding photographs. And, this is a trend we can get on board with! Luckily, there are some amazing breastfeeding photography accounts on Instagram to follow for inspiration.
We’re loving all the breastfeeding photography accounts popping up on Instagram. From relaxed mamas breastfeeding at home to mamas out in nature feeding their little ones, breastfeeding has never looked so good!
There’s something wonderful about capturing the act of breastfeeding your child in a photograph. But often in the everyday humdrum of life, we don’t think to stop and ask someone to take a photograph. Maybe we feel a bit awkward about it or worried about what we’ll look like on camera.
It’s sad but so many mamas end their breastfeeding journey without having any proper photographs to remind them of that special time. If you’re lucky, you might have a weird-angled selfie or an out-of-focus photo someone took of you which you can look back on!
If you’ve ever used a good photographer you’ll know that they are able to put you at ease whilst capturing your best angles – as the following photographs show! The mamas in these pictures look beautiful and powerful as they hold and feed their children. Some of the images are even accompanied by an inspiring mama story.
Let’s take a look at 7 of the best breastfeeding photography accounts on Instagram
