The Birth Experience with Em - a certified doula, published birth photographer + student midwife.
Welcoming your baby earth side
while a birth photographer seems to be a new concept, I am here for it. Not just because I am a birth photog but because I am a mama who has had a birth experience without any images being captured. Your spouse is taking care of you + you are bringing a human earth side while trying to care for yourself as well. And bless our mother, sister, friend who are there to support us during labor but their cell phone images don’t make the cut if you ask me. HA! You wouldn't ask them to photograph your wedding on their cell phone, would you???
As your birth worker + now birth bestie, I am there to support you as you bring your baby into this world. As your photographer, my main job is to capture these precious moments in such a way that captures the emotions, raw moments + the exciting new chapter that you are starting in your life. We will be in contact off + on throughout your pregnancy + I will be on call starting at 36 weeks gestation.
Before baby joins us earth side we will have a appointment, typically at 30-34 week gestation, in your home or a local coffee shop to discuss all the expectations you have for me + that I have for your family. We will go over the contract, birth location.. allll the things.
During your birth, I will arrive as quiet as a mouse to your birth location. I will act as a fly on the wall capturing your birth experience with professionalism + most likely will be overflowing with excitement.
I would love to chat more about the birth experience with you.
