There’s a well-known saying that goes, “A picture says a thousand words.” Today, anyone can pick up a camera and capture what matters most to them. A photograph can easily bring back all our good memories. Mothers, especially those in their menopausal years, can learn photography and use it as a tool to enrich their lives.

CEO and founder of Momtography Beryl Young joins us in today’s episode. Beryl is a former elementary school teacher, and her passion for teaching led her to develop the “Momtography Method.” She offers photography education to a community of moms who want to capture, develop, and preserve photographs while being joyful in the process.

In this episode, Beryl talks about establishing Momtography and her experience with menopausal moms and empty nesters. She will also share different insights on the various techniques in capturing photos, and how photography can also foster connection, creativity, and confidence in mothers. If you are into photography or you want to learn more about it, be sure to tune in!
