Hopefully if you are viewing this page, we have already taken your maternity photos and we have established trust and comfort; the two most important elements of our relationship and more importantly, vital in a birth environment. Birth photography, in addition to your maternity session, helps tell your most vulnerable and yet very powerful story, unforgettable.
Let me start with saying it would be nothing less than an honor to be able be present in your birth space. Birth photography is created for the moments you don't want to forget. I am here to capture the season that you are in and my goal is to allow you to focus on this incredible time with your family, while I capture the moment you first see your baby, their first breath, the first time you kissed their little head, and the reaction of your partner, all timelessly preserved.
My role is to provide coverage during your labor, birth and postpartum, no matter how long your labor, I come fully prepared and ready to meet you at a moment's notice because I'm here to support you though this life's changing journey. Your journey to becoming a parent is a story worth remembering. Storytelling through images allows me to help you document and remember what often becomes a hazy memory.
This is the beginning your legacy, the beginning of your family.
I officially go on-call at 38 weeks. That means, that I am ready and available 24/7 until your little one arrives. But if you were to go into labor before that, have your partner or support person contact me from the first start of labor, keeping me informed, and I will do everything I can to be there!
I typically arrive during active labor (5-6cm or whenever you can no longer walk/talk through your contractions) and stay with you for approximately 1-2 hours after baby has arrived capturing each moment beautifully, exactly as it was. I will provide you with approximately 50 - 100 digital birth images, depending on your length of your labor. Your images will be sent to a private/secured online gallery within 4 weeks of the baby's birth.
At the time of scheduling your birth session, a signed contract and a partial payment (50%) will be due to secure the date. The remaining balance is due two weeks prior to your estimated due date. If this is difficult for you, please let me know so that we can work out a payment plan.
If you don't already know, Photography is my Labor of Love and I am a lower-volume photographer which allows me to work with clients that truly value the commitment I make to them and their birth experience.
Birth is the beginning of a new chapter, whether is your first or your last baby, its a beautiful depiction of strength, struggle and unconditional love! Birth is incredible and worth documenting because not only will you rock the baby... the baby will rock your world too.
When your baby is born, you are too. Nothing before or after could ever compare to the moment you bring life into the world.
We can do this this together, mama.
