This is such a fun way to commemorate your breastfeeding journey! I (Molly) participated in a few of these over the years. It takes place in LaCrosse, but the drive is definitely worth it! Ladybug Photography by Bekky Murphy generously let me use some of her breastfeeding photographs for our website and marketing materials.
