the experience: how does it work?
focus on bringing your baby earth side, and let me capture it all...
Birth photography isn’t about posing; it’s about you, being your authentic self, nitty gritty and all. Forget about posing and feeling stiff in front of the camera. Imagine being with an old friend who just happens to have a camera with them. My process is natural and flowy, and my only goal is to capture the unfolding of your story.
My process:
Fill out the form
(01)
Complete the contact form, and I will get back to you within 48 hours
book me
(02)
We'll have a phone consult, email, or meet in person, and you'll decide whether I'm the right fit for you
meet up, phone, or email
(03)
After you book me, I like to schedule a time with you... just so we're more comfortable with each other when it comes time for you to be half (or fully) naked, pushing a baby out :P
we'll meet for coffee or I can come to you, bring your favorite drink, and we'll go over things like certain images you want or don't want, etc. OR if you'd rather call or email, that's fine too
baby time
(04)
It's the big day (or night) !
You'll keep me updated and let me know when you're in early and active labor. I'll come to you, when it's time, and start documenting your story
delivering photos & film
(05)
Within 4 weeks, you'll receive your edited photos, and/or film, ready for download.
I send you sneak peeks within 24 hours, to use for announcement, if you choose
When do you go on call for me?
My on call time starts when you're 38 weeks, until you give birth. If that's one week, or four, I'm on call for you 24/7.
What should I wear?
You can wear whatever you want! I just like to remind clients that whatever you wear will be in your pics forever. I recommend neutrals, and no graphic shirts or visible wild language. Ultimately, it's your own personal preference.
How many pictures will I receive?
However many pictures it takes to tell your story! I usually deliver between 100-200+, depending on how long your birth story is.
Are you available outside of DFW?
I've driven 2.5 hours away for birth before, but I like to stay within a 1.5 hours drive. Birth is unpredictable. Let's chat about it!
Do you do herbal bath sessions?
Yes! Herbal bath sessions are a beautiful way to document you and baby, in the calm of the water, while letting the healing herbs work their magic.
Do you have a question?
If you have any questions at all, contact me! I would love to help you figure out whether I'm the right fit for you and your family!
