Last week I had the amazing pleasure of being featured in an article in the local paper highlighting my work.

It focused on my passion…..birth photography and since it is such a new option in this world I figured I’d spend a few moments explaining why birth photography is so important to me…..

It started last year after mentioning it lightly with friends of mine that were expecting. It took them all of 20 seconds to say yes and from that point I just waited for a phone call. Then 4 more clients, now friends….decided to hire me for their big day as well.

Getting to be a part of such a crutial and amazing moment…well, it’s humbling.

I watch the emotions unfold….the excitement…..

the exhaustion……

the wait……

the strength…..

and the joy….

I warn my clients that I will do my job….but to be warned, I’ll cry because birth hold a special place in my heart. I’ve birthed 4 babies myself.

It is a mountain of emotions and I am so lucky to be able to capture the highs and lows and to provide that to my clients, my friends and that later on they can go back and watch how that whole day unfolded. To smile and cry and to know that they accomplished one huge miracle.

I’ve never had a client regret having me there for the day….just a few that regretted not having me there. It’s a huge decision to ask a complete stranger into the delivery room with you but after a consult meeting, you will easily see that I work for you. I flow by your rules and will always respect your decisions. I’m there to capture your moments and remain a fly on the wall during the entire process, unless asked.   I hope to open the worlds eyes and provide images to clients that will forever be cherished.

If you are interested please take a peek around the blog to watch the birth videos I’ve done and if you are interesting in knowing the details about what I offer for the birth…
