- When I met Lauren (shortly after she found out she was pregnant - she's a planner) she told me that after 2 difficult hospital births, she was planning her first unmedicated homebirth. I felt immediately connected to her as I too had struggled with medicated births and finally decided with my [...]
- The warmer temperatures in Austin have me very excited to share this gorgeous summer home and water birth with you. The thing I love about birth is that no two stories look the same. Especially homebirths. Some are in tight quarters, some are in wide open spaces, some are quiet and private, and othe[...]
- An entire birth story, beginning to end. When I first shared images from Lauren's birth, many people could not understand why she gave birth on the toilet (as if that's where she intended for it to happen). This curation of images shows her progress up to that point. Notice how much she moves around[...]
- Every year on March 22-28 the world celebrates doulas with World Doula Week. I used a doula with my last birth (that was, ahem, 11 years ago) and we still keep in touch. Because doulas are awesome and truly care for their clients. I decided I'd write a bit of a tribute to them in honor of World Doul[...]
- In November I was privileged to travel to Sacramento to document this beautiful surrogate birth. I've been contacted multiple time about traveling for birth photography. At first I thought - no way. Birth is too unpredictable and I'd risk potential clients not booking me for being out of town. But I[...]
- Hey there, popular blogger/advocate/writer who's featuring my photography. I appreciate what you do. I honestly do. You are helping put breastfeeding and birth photography on the map. Getting it seen. Making it normal. And I am thankful that my work has somehow made it's way across the int[...]
- It wasn't an easy task, but I've selected my best birth photos from 2015. I feel fortunate to have met each family I worked with this past year. Every kind of birth is beautiful, and luckily I was able to capture a huge variety in 2015. I was also blessed with a multitude of new opportunities. I fo[...]
- I first met Paige while photographing another client's birth, which she attended as a doula. Paige and her partner Surabhi have one older child, a boy, which Paige carried. So when they reached out to me to document Surabhi's turn, I was thrilled. Surabhi labored for 35 hours to bring Akshay into th[...]
- A few months ago I had the privilege of photographing my first c-section. It was not my first time to attend a cesarean birth; I have documented births that ended as a c-section a few times now. But I usually have to give a quick camera tutorial and then leave it to Dad or a nurse to capture tho[...]
- The surrogate birth I recently photographed has yielded so many questions and emails! I've had many people ask me to share more of the actual story (and accompanying pictures) than has already been shared both on my Facebook page and on Birth Without Fear. Where possible I ask the mother to sh[...]
- I honestly thought 2013 would be impossible to top. Such an incredible year. So many highs! And now that 2014 has ended, I am feeling blessed beyond measure. I photographed 21 babies, 41 breastfeeding mamas, received the People's Choice Award for birthphotographers.com's Image of the Year Com[...]
- Stefanie contacted me early in her pregnancy. So it was very exciting when her day finally arrived! It was a beautiful but brisk morning and the fire was on when I got to her cozy home out in Killeen. I walked in to find Stefanie concentrating during her contractions, her midwives surrounding her[...]
