Reasons to Hire a
Birth Photographer…
1. You won’t have any regrets since there are no “do overs” in birth
2. Your husband can be fully present and be in the photos with you
3. The photographs will help you process your birth story better
4. Having documentation helps with mama/baby bonding
5. Your child will be able to see how strong their mama truly is
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.
When you go through your birth gallery and Birth Film, I want you to be able to re-live those amazing moments so you can see the courage, strength, determination, beauty that is birth.

Each and every birth story is different and sometimes I am limited with my angles by the equipment, room set up, doctors, nurses or midwives.

I do not usually use flash but I bring it with me just in case. If the room is super dark, I will adjust my camera to compensate for that, just know the images will be a little more grainy. I might ask about turning up some lights if I feel the images will look better but ultimately I do not want to disrupt the birthing space. If the flash is used, I would save it for after baby is born.
All the photos you have seen on my website and portfolio have been without flash.
