What's Included:

  • A consult to meet/visit & to go over expectations for both parties, answer questions.
  • Sierra's arrival as soon as she's possibly able.
  • Coverage from the moment Sierra steps out of her car of room details, little fleeting moments of support and position changes... expect coverage of active pushing, coverage of the few hours after baby's delivered for skin to skin, first latch, and first snuggles.
  • Fresh48 images are taken the morning after a night delivery.
  • 3 polaroid prints to keep the day of baby's arrival.
  • Client receives 100% privacy from inquiry through image delivery unless otherwise discussed.
  • Digital images are delivered via a password protected downloadable gallery.

Every birth is so different from the next and sometimes doesn't go exactly as we plan. If in the event I cannot get there, you can use your paid session fee for other sessions within baby's first year of life. Payment is absolutely nonrefundable. It is your responsibility to call me when contractions start, when you're heading to the hospital or your birthing space at home, or when your induction is scheduled to begin. I have a family to care for & other sessions/babies on the schedule, so providing me with all of the heads-ups will give us the best chance at a successful birth capture. And sometimes, even if we do everything as planned, baby still comes before I can get there. Some babies take 2 days of labor, some take 2 hours or less. When I do arrive, I'll do the fresh48 newborn session in your birth space during morning light; your remaining money paid can be applied to sessions later that year.

I am an experienced motherhood photographer, asking you for the trust & grace in this ever-so-incredible time. Please also consider allowing me permission to share some of your images, but it is not required, ever.

"My induction/c-section is scheduled for xx/xx. Are you available?"

*Inquire for more details*

All Birth Packages include:

  • Coverage during the birth/delivery, maybe some details leading up to (if applicable), skin to skin, first latch, and a fresh-48 once baby and family is settled within those first few hours; this is usually done during daylight so we may need to wait until morning.
  • I could be with you for just a few hours, or I could be with you all day/night. I was with my last client for 24 hours and delivered over 100 color images and their B+W copies. Client will receive unlimited digital images.


I can travel to your birth location anywhere between LaX to Winona to Rochester. I cannot travel beyond that at this time. In-home births are welcome to book with me as well!


If you choose to keep your lights dim during the delivery, I will have to use my flash.

FAQ

If you're with me for 12-48 hours, why don't I end up with hundreds of images?

A LOT of the delivery process is resting, breathing, and waiting for progression/dilation. After capturing a position change or a photo or two of what's happening, I will sit back and read on my kindle to give my clients and doctors privacy during these down times <3

If it's an all-night event, where do you stay?

I can either stay in a recliner in your hospital room, or you can put me in a nearby hotel. Just call me when you're progressing!!!!

When should I book?

You should reach out when you've gotten permission from your birthing place to have a photographer present. I will accept payment after your 20 week appointment/ultrasound.

How many images WILL I end up with?

I like to estimate approximately 100, but there could be much more or a little less. Every story unfolds differently. Please trust, I am right there on the sidelines checking for baby crowning and listening to the nurses. It's a team effort to provide a calm and quiet experience. My eyes are peeled for the fleeting moments, hand holding, tear-wiping, etc. You don't want me using my flash 400x, nor do you want 400 captures of the same position. I delivered over one hundred in-color digitals to my last client, plus b+w. Please trust me <3

Do I have to let you see my vag?

If you don't want photos of baby crowning, I won't capture them. I can get angles of you pushing and such by placing a nurse or your leg etc in front of your vag. I may see it (I've seen many, I won't say a word about it) but I can keep it off camera.

I have more questions!

Let's get together for coffee or an appetizer (on me) and chat more (after your 20 week appt). I LOVE spending an hour or two bonding with my clients. Please reach out!
