Birth Photography
Birth is beautiful! Do you want quality images that capture the beauty of your birth, the intense work of labor and the ecstasy of welcoming your baby into the world? Birth photography captures these precious moments in your life into a priceless keepsake.
The day you give birth is a day you will never forget. It is one of the most life-changing experiences you will have. Yet those small moments are fleeting. Will you remember the way your partner caressed your hand during a tough moment, or how your doula laid a cool cloth on your forehead as you were pushing? Will you see the tear fall from your partner’s face as your baby is born? It is my job to capture these moments, to tell the story of your birth in a way that you can’t necessarily see when you are in the moment. I am drawn to these moments of connection, and you will be able to see the love and support of your birth team in a fresh perspective. There is so much raw emotion during a birth, the sheer intensity and power of labor and the moment of birth, the joy and relief as you hold your baby for the first time, the quiet moments of love as you snuggle your baby and all the world seems to disappear. I put my heart and soul into documenting these moments with an artistic eye in order preserve these special moments of your unique birth story. Can you imagine not having any pictures from this transformative experience, or only a few blurry cellphone pictures? This is what a birth photographer does for you. I am there to preserve your precious memories into a treasured work of art.

Testimonials:
“Jamie, wow. These are nothing short of incredible. They are beautiful in a very raw way. Viewing them was very emotional. We are so happy to have them. Thank you! You did great work.” Teresa W.
“All I can say to these is wow. They are truly incredible. I was a bit scared to actually look at these; I figured there wouldn’t be any that I really liked, except the ones with Arya, as the birth was so different than I hoped. But they put the labor and birth in an entirely different perspective for me. There is so much love and strength and joy in those photos. I love all of them!I did spend a decent amount of time crying at the black and white of Arya being born both happy and sad tears. Thank you for capturing so many incredible moments.” Jessica S.
