Trina Cary has done a rather rare photo shoot. The Australian photographer chose the Sunshine Coast in Australia to photograph 14 mothers as they breastfed their children.

The purpose of this photo album is to help new mothers around the world “love” their body shape after giving birth.

“I want to help women learn to love the changes in their bodies after giving birth. We are all beautiful in our own way, and we should not compare ourselves to each other.

“Breastfeeding is a special experience, so why not do it publicly,” said Cary.

This particular shoot also felt important to Trina because of all the mothers’ differences coming together in the name of breastfeeding their children. “I was absolutely ecstatic to see these mothers breastfeeding and not just newborns, there were a variety of ages, a couple 18 months and older, and to hear their journeys and realize for some of them it wasn’t an easy one,” she said.
