A Year of Her Life, One Print at a Time
Anna wanted to start something simple: a photo project for her baby’s first year.
Nothing elaborate. Just a way to make the everyday feel a little more lasting.
At first, she planned to print at the pharmacy — but the quality didn’t feel right for something so special. Then Mootsh found her, the way good things sometimes do, in the middle of a scroll.
The moment that first Mootsh delivery arrived, the ritual began.
Each month, Anna chooses ten photos — the quiet moments, the joy-soaked ones, the in-betweens — and prints them for her daughter’s growing album. A slow-built story of babyhood, unfolding print by print.
“I wanted her to have something to look back on,” she said. “And I’ve loved doing this so much, I know I’ll keep going.”
Some of the prints go straight into frames around the house, a few tucked into corners where sunlight catches them just right. The rest are carefully placed into the album, which will one day be passed along to tiny hands, ready to turn the pages of her own beginnings.
And when Anna’s best friend had a baby of her own, she knew exactly what to give.
“Everyone gets the registry items,” she said. “But you also want to give something they’ll cherish. Something they’ll keep.”
So she gifted Mootsh — a quiet nudge toward starting a ritual, a moment to slow down, a way to hold onto the days that go by so fast.
