Birth story time. 36 weeks, precipitous birth.

She texted me at 3:16pm that she was feeling crampy. Then 3:31pm contractions had started.

I was out with Josh so we drove home quickly. At 4:14pm she texted that she was going to the hospital.

I left at 4:22. Got to the hospital and my clients were in triage…..I waited for 30 minutes in the waiting room before the nurse ran out and got me at 5:38 and baby was born at 5:47.
Born in triage.
Start to finish 2.5 hours.
First baby.
36-2
Baby was 6 and a half pounds and doing great!!
Birth ✨ always wild.

Learning to take photos in low light is not just a skill, but an art. Monet Nicole and I are sharing some of our knowledge in our Low Light Lab. This combines low light birth photography as a course, along with a live lab for you to answer your questions about shooting and editing in low light.
The best part? It's just $97!
We'd love for you to join us.

Birth deserves to be seen.
In 2016/17/18 - many, many birth workers worked with social media to help make change and reform around real birth images.
Now, it’s like we’ve stepped back into the dark ages.
Birth images censored.
Birth accounts removed.

A decade of people really seeing real birth images changed the way we gave birth.
What are they so afraid of?

Growing a baby doesn’t stop when they are outside of your body, our bodies nourish and feed, they keep warm, they hold and comfort.

This time is fleeting, ask any parent whose child is going off to kindergarten or starting *(gasp!) high school! (my oldest)

It’s ok to slow down and to cherish this time. It’s ok to take the photos and snuggle the babies. You always think there is more time, another day, another month…but one day, it will be the last day.
Be present and stay in the moment and honor the seasons of life as they happen.
Breastfeeding and maternity sessions are booking into late May, reach out for details.

Hi Friends, I just wanted to put this here in case any of you are interested in becoming a doula.

The Birth Becomes You Doula Course is starting May 1st, and if this is work that you've been wanting to step into, now is a great time!
The landscape in birth and for doulas is shifting quickly. Medicaid programs are expanding and insurance companies are beginning to recognize the value of doula care.

We are actively working to have our training accepted across these systems, and we have already been approved in multiple states and recognized by major insurers like Kaiser Permanente and UnitedHealthcare.

This means you are not just stepping into something meaningful. You are stepping into something that is becoming more supported and more sustainable as a profession.

All of this matters, because it shapes not just how you begin, but what this can grow into over time.

When you finally get to meet your baby. The baby who is Breech and changed your entire birth plan.
Even though it was difficult, he is here, he is loved. He is love.

When I first moved to Chelsea, Michigan - after living in Denver for 15 years, Celeste was my first new friend.

She had followed my birth photography page on social media and when I posted where I was going to live, she reached out and we set up a time to meet.
We met for coffee at Zou-Zou’s in Chelsea, and have been friends ever since.

It only took me about 2 seconds to realize that Celeste was an amazing human - and I’m so grateful to have her as a friend and co-worker. Every year, I am the birth photographer for several of Celeste’s clients and it feels like ‘home’ to step into a birth space with Celeste and her partner Patricia in it.

Check out this amazing birth story and video highlighting Celeste's work and my dear client Bethany's birth story. With an amazing sibling doula and friend, Erin
