"Claude-Aline is an exceptional photographer. My pregnancy pictures were - without a doubt - the best pictures I've ever taken in my life. I like to think of that as 50% my little bundle of joy shining through from inside and 50% the genius behind the camera. Claude-Aline encouraged me to share my happiness in my face, my smile, my carriage - I think even my hair shone brighter because of her direction.However - better than the individual pictures was the incredible gift she created for my family when she compiled them into the journal. She captured a collection of moments and made them into a story as profound as any I've ever told. Motherhood changed my life, and Claude-Aline document ed that change in a way that I never tire of sharing. I can't ever thank her enough."
