Welcome

I believe we are all uniquely created out of great Love. We all have a purpose and a story to tell.

Life is full of many adventures and the journey of motherhood is a grand adventure that comes with many highs and lows, tears of joy and tears of sorrow, feelings of insignificance and feelings of gratitude.

“For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.  I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is the sum of them! Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand— when I awake, I am still with you."  Psalm 139:13-18

Hey! My name is,

Alaina

My husband and I have 6 children who we homeschool/life School. I love the Lord & the family He has blessed me with. Using essential oils for everything, making food from scratch and encouraging my children to pursue their passions and interests while loving on the people the Lord brings into our lives, are some of the most important things to me.

“Alaina is INCREDIBLY talented and brings her deeply calming, grounding presence to any birth space. Her photos and video helped me remember and process my birth story, which didn’t go as planned (does it ever?! ) so I was worried the photos wouldn’t be amazing. THEY WERE! I am also so glad we added the video in our final month, because I look back on it most. I only wish I’d hired her as a doula too! Next time…”

Telling Life’s Story from the Beginning…

Documenting birth stories is important to me because being a mother is important to me. I want you to know that you are capable, you are a fierce warrior and your birth story doesn’t just happen to you, but is one that you are a participant of.

When I document birth stories I want to be your eyes that you can’t rely on, to see. When you go through your birth photographs or birth film I want you to re-live the moments from your perspective and from mine as well. Because what I see is courage, strength, determination, beauty and a lot of times brokenness but in the end there’s triumph, joy and freedom.

“Alaina is a beautiful soul! She brought a peaceful presence to our home birth experience while taking amazing photos of treasured moments before, during, and after birth. If you are concerned that having a birth photographer won’t give you as intimate of an experience – think again and interview with Alaina.”
