Birth Photography

Capture your baby’s birth forever in photographs

These are memories you will want to have forever. I can help you capture your labor, the birth of your baby and your baby’s firsts- first breath, first nursing, first diaper, all in photographs.

You will have a birth album of the most unforgettable moments, to show, and to keep, both for yourself and your child.

Photos are perfect for birth announcements, baby books and memory books.

I will come to photograph the birth of your baby, and the baby’s first hour. Service also includes prenatal meeting to discuss photo options and postpartum meeting to deliver photos and review them. You will receive up to 100 4x6 prints and CD-ROM of digital images, which you are free to reproduce for personal use.

Photos are taken with a high-resolution digital camera and produce film quality prints.

Because I am a mother first, I attend a small number of births per month. Please contact me early to reserve your month.

Doula services and Birth photography services cannot be combined. As a doula, I am willing to take photographs when I am able, but my primary responsibility is to support the mother, and so I cannot commit to being a birth photographer if I am labor support. Alternatively, as a birth photographer, my primary responsibility is to document the birth, and while I can or may offer occasional suggestions, I cannot be labor support as well.

Examples of my photography can be seen here:

Birth Sequence (graphic photos)

Birth Sequence 2 (no graphic photos)

Birth Sequence 3 (no graphic photos)

I also have a small album of birth photos I have taken. I am happy to bring it to an appointment or interview.
