Hi! Thank you for stopping by. My name is Rita Brock and I am the owner and photographer for Through A Mother's Eyes Photography.
Choosing someone to photograph your newborn/baby/child is a deeply personal decision—and it should be. Your baby/child's safety, comfort, and first memories matter. With over 30 years of experience as a labor and delivery nurse, I bring a level of care, patience, and expertise that goes far beyond photography. I understand newborns—their needs, their cues, and how to keep them safe and content throughout every moment of their session. My additional 17 years in mental health have also shaped a calm, compassionate approach, ensuring not just baby, but parents feel relaxed and supported. My in-home studio is fully equipped with everything we’ll need—from carefully selected props to a warm, soothing environment designed specifically for newborns. Every session is completely baby-led, meaning I follow your baby’s cues, never rushing or forcing poses. Their comfort always comes first. Photography has been my passion and profession for 17 years, with the past 7 years dedicated specifically to newborns and children. I’ve invested extensively in education, completing numerous specialized newborn photography courses, attending in-person workshops with world-renowned photographers, and participating in private 1:1 mentoring with respected leaders in the industry. For the past two years, I’ve been honored to receive awards as a top newborn photographer in my area, and this year was voted Best of Kentucky 2026 by Guide to Kentucky—a reflection of both my dedication and the trust families place in me. When you choose me, you're not just hiring a photographer—you’re choosing experience, safety, patience, and a genuine love for capturing these once-in-a-lifetime moments.
