You will never regret the photos you have.
But you will regret the photos you don't have.
(Ask me how I know)

I wish I had known birth photography was a thing...
Becoming a mom is definitely the coolest, hardest, most rewarding yet thankless thing I’ve ever done. Labor was HARD, and while each one was different, I was incredibly proud of myself and my body both times.
I wish I had known birth photography was a thing when I had my babies. I wish someone had come to me and said “hey, you’re going to forget so much of this. Get someone to take photos”.
Now I document birth stories because I know how precious these memories are, and how painful it can be to have nothing to remember them by.
Birth will transform you - and that transformation deserves to be documented, celebrated, and remembered. Your birth story matters. Your role as a mother matters. Sure, I love to photograph the babies - but my heart is with helping you feel seen and special, too.

My superpower is helping you see your own superpower.
You are doing amazing things. HARD things. And my guess is instead of patting yourself on the back, you're probably letting that critical voice have the stage way more often than it should.
I'm here to remind you how amazing and powerful you truly are - and I'm going to show you by the stories I tell with my camera. Whether that's your strength through labor and delivery, or those early postpartum days when you're learning how to navigate this new human... or even years into this parenting journey when you're constantly worrying if you're doing it "right" or good enough.
Ready to see how amazing you actually are?

"Looking at birth photos (again) and [baby] came and sat with me. She was very interested in the photos, and seemed particularly fond of the ones you captured of our “love at first sight” moments. I am forever grateful to you for getting every detail when I was in such a fuzzy state and could only remember some of the major parts, but not the little ones (like how sweet her little feet were in my hands). You are the best ❤"
