Why Hire a Birth Photographer
These are six reasons why I think you should hire a birth photographer. You only bring your child into this world once.
1. “I WISH I HAD DONE THAT!”
This is the most common thing I hear! For whatever reason, they felt it was a private affair; they didn’t think they looked presentable enough for photos, or thought it was too expensive. Don’t forgo priceless photographs and regret it later.
2. MISSED MOMENTS
You are bound to miss moments during labor and forget details of your birth story. By having professional photographs, you’ll be able to look back and remember it all perfectly.
3. QUALITY
While an iPhone can capture the basic shots, it can’t come close to the quality a professional can achieve. I adapt to your birth, ensuring you have beautiful high-quality images.

4. PROFESSIONAL
Safety is a top priority for you and baby; as an experienced birth photographer, I understand the flow of birth. I position myself ensuring you have the space you need, while still capturing the moments I was hired for.
5. IT’S NOT ABOUT NUDITY
Birth photography is not about the revealing, textbook looking shots. It’s about documenting and preserving your entire birth story. The tender moments of your partner supporting you through contractions, the delivery and meeting your baby for the first time, and baby meeting siblings and grandparents.
6. FREE UP YOUR BIRTH TEAM
By hiring a birth photographer, your birth team will be able to give you their undivided attention and also have the opportunity to be included in your memories.
