The birth of any child is amazing and a complete miracle. Whether it's your first or your fifth (or more), because every birth is unique, each one is truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. It's a time of wonder, of overwhelming joy, a flood of love; it's something that you remember for the rest of your life. Often, time dims the small details and causes even the strongest emotions to fade a little... but something as simple as a photo can bring everything rushing back.

That's where I come in: having a Birth Photographer may seem like an unnecessary thing, but for parents, it means having a treasured keepsake for years to come. Throughout labor and in the first hours after delivery hold some of the most precious moments anyone can experience in their lifetime... the focus is on bringing new life into the world and then getting to know the tiny little being that has changed their world forever. It's definitely not the time to be wondering who will take photos, who will see them and if you even remembered to pack the camera (or batteries!!). Having a photographer on hand to document your baby's birth ensures that you, your spouse and any other family members who are present are able to give their undivided attention to everything that's happening. It means that you can have your family photographed as a unit- nobody will be excluded (usually it's Dad, because he's the one using the camera). It means you'll have images of intimate moments on hand, to view whenever you want, for many years to come.

Take it from a mommy of three: if I'd had the opportunity to have a Birth Photographer when each of my babies were born, I'd have done it in a heartbeat. So whether you're expecting a sweet little one or you know someone who'd love the gift of a Birth Session, contact me today for details, and let me take care of the camera while you take care of bringing that little miracle into the world (without the regrets of not having the photos you want).
