Birth photography is a captivating art that beautifully captures the raw emotions, monumental moments, and miraculous journey of bringing a new life into the world. It is a profound and intimate documentation of the birthing process, freezing in time the intense joy, pain, love, and vulnerability experienced by both the mother and her loved ones. As a birth photographer, I skillfully navigate the delicate balance between being present without interfering, allowing the powerful narrative of birth to unfold naturally. Through my lens, I create a timeless visual legacy, immortalizing the magic and strength showcased in every labor, delivery, and first breath. Birth photography is a celebration of life, an art form that forever preserves the beauty and profoundness of the miracle of birth.

When you're choosing me as your birth photographer, you're not just getting someone who knows how to take beautiful photos. You're getting a professional who's trained as a doula and midwife assistant in the unique and sacred environment of birth. I understand the flow of labor, the various stages of birth, and the significance of each precious moment. I know how to navigate the space without getting in the way of healthcare professionals or disrupting the intimate atmosphere between you and your support team. I capture the intense emotions, the raw connections, and even the small details, all while respecting and protecting your privacy and dignity. In essence, I seamlessly blend into the background, becoming an invaluable witness to your miracle of birth, preserving those fleeting moments of joy and strength for you to cherish forever.

When you're considering booking me for your birth photography, timing is key. I recommend starting your search during your second trimester. This gives you plenty of time to explore my portfolio and see if my style aligns with your vision for capturing this life-changing event. To make sure I'm available around your due date, it's best to book a few months in advance. Being a birth photographer means I'm on call for you, so early communication helps me make all the necessary arrangements. But don't worry if you're a bit late in the game; as long as I'm available, it's never too late to book. These moments are once-in-a-lifetime and can't be replicated, so securing your birth photographer early ensures that you'll have this beautiful and transformative experience captured forever.

When you choose me as your birth photographer, you're not just getting a few snapshots; you're getting a carefully curated collection that tells the story of your birth journey. The number of photos you'll receive can vary depending on the length and events of your labor, but you can generally expect around 100-150 professionally edited images. Each photo is meticulously edited to bring out the beauty and emotion of your experience. I believe in quality over quantity, ensuring that each image you receive is a work of art that captures a precious moment in time.

If you find yourself needing a C-section, rest assured that I'm fully prepared to adapt and capture this different, yet equally miraculous, form of birth. My priority is to work closely with your medical team to ensure I'm unobtrusive while still capturing those irreplaceable first moments. Whether it's the first time your eyes meet your baby's or the instant they are gently lifted into the world, I aim to capture these monumental milestones with the same artistry and emotional depth as I would with a vaginal birth. Please note that access to the operating room is dependent on the policies of your healthcare provider and the approval of your doctor. The essence of your birth story deserves to be captured, no matter how your baby arrives.

Absolutely, I offer a variety of packages to suit your unique needs and preferences. From a basic package that covers just the birth to comprehensive packages that include prenatal, birth, and postpartum sessions, there's something for everyone. Each package is thoughtfully designed to provide you with a complete storytelling experience, capturing not just the birth but the beautiful journey leading up to it and the first precious moments afterward. I also offer customizable options, so you can add on services like spiritual coaching or sound healing to make your experience truly one-of-a-kind.
