HOW DOES BIRTH PHOTOGRAPHY WORK?
1. Schedule a call
We will start by hopping on the phone to get a feel for one another. I'll walk you through my process and everything I offer, and you'll have the opportunity to ask all of your burning questions. If we decide we're a good fit to work together, we'll move on to step 2!
2. Book your due date
Save your due date with a signed contract and a retainer. Due to the unpredictable nature of birth, I only book 2-3 births per month - and this step ensures that no one else can take your spot! I offer flexible, interest-free payment plans. I'm happy to discuss a payment schedule that works for both of us - so just ask!
3. Relax & enjoy...
Once your due date is officially booked, I will walk you through each step of the process so you're never wondering what's next. We will meet in-person at least one time prior to your birthing day so we can get to know each other a bit more before you go into labor. My goal is to NOT be another stranger in the room!
Birth Packages
When you add me to your birth team, I will be ready to drop everything for you, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week in the weeks leading up to your baby's arrival. Your investment covers 2 am wake up calls, false alarms, and unlimited hours at your birth. I will be there to capture your story - whether it happens on a random Tuesday in the middle of the day, or in the wee hours of Christmas morning.
All of my birth packages include:
- A prenatal consultation to discuss your unique preferences and customize your experience
- A gallery of 100-150 digital images (with print release) that tells the whole story
- The option to add an album and/or keepsake box to enjoy your photos in printed form
*BIRTH PACKAGES START AT $1,950. PAYMENT PLANS ARE WELCOME

Leslie captured our dream birth perfectly. She was the perfect energy in our home, exactly what we had envisioned. These photos tell a beautiful story, and that was most important to me. Would recommend this to anyone on the fence about it- birth is the biggest life event, why wouldn’t we capture it?
