My commitment to only photographing newborns in their own space, at their own pace, fuels my why. It is important to me as a natural newborn photographer to be in the actual space where you live and raise your baby to give you a unique, true-to-you representation of this time in your life. Though the session below stole my heart with their family and maternity session, the newborn photos are the most personal- a glimpse behind the curtain into the home her father renovated and the room her mother designed for her arrival.

To showcase these three sessions, an album was hand crafted to have a tangible gift to hold and look at. Her first year here Earth side, photographed from inside the womb, to kicking in the crib and finally eating her toes by the bay.

So here we are, post pregnancy, post birth and we have this quickly growing baby who is changing everyday. You are feeding, bonding, playing, teaching, bathing and sleeping with your child, day in and day out, and before you know it they are off to kindergarten and you are left wondering where all the time has gone… how this is even possible. First birthdays and family sessions are the perfect way to:

Show growth, personality and tell the story.

GET. IN. THE. PHOTOS!!!!

So many of us are busy documenting life around us, we rarely get in the moments (aside from the selfie if we are feeling put together that day).

Photographers are a huge part of other milestones in your life- from school pictures, senior portraits, engagements, head shots and weddings, but for many the photographic journey stops there.  Why?  Why do we invest so much time and money to find our favorite artist to capture photos for our wedding day, but not think to do the same for the birth of our children?

Doulas are trained professionals who provide informational, physical and emotional support to you and your family during the pregnancy, labor and postpartum phases of birth.  They work directly with other medical professionals, (i.e. nurses, doctors, midwives) to provide a safe and emotionally supportive environment when bringing a newborn into your world.

Birth Centers are blend of the at home-feel and care, while also being close to (or in) a hospital. You will be surrounded by medical professionals, with home-like care and more options for pain management. You will have access to showers, birthing tubs and space to walk and move around freely. Following a midwife model for delivery and care, they are also less likely to intervene during birth, allowing a more natural progression and a much less percentage of cesarean deliveries than hospitals.

I know you have thousands of images of your littles ones doing thousands of things. I am sure you have plenty of photos and videos of your partner sharing time with your babies, but not all of us are documented with our families. Here is your push to get in the photos.
