New Life - Birth Photo Sessions are Now Available!

These are some of the most important photo opportunities of your life!  You may be unsure about having photographs of your labour and birth, but trust me, you will thank the stars that you decided to hire a photographer who is there solely for that purpose, and that you have those memories in print and digital format.  Capture all the moments you miss while you are in labour and delivering your precious baby.  You're so busy concentrating on your body and your baby that you don't realize how many sweet, magical moments are waiting to be captured, and these moments come and go and are otherwise never seen again. I am there to ensure that these cherished moments, the first looks of intense and unconditional love, the overwhelming joy - are not missed. I love all things babies, and am passionate about labour and birth (having given birth naturally to our four wonderful children, two of which were at home and one was in a birth pool!). I am on call, and arrive when you are in active labour, I'm quietly present during the birth, and for a little while postpartum when everything has settled down and there are some precious, quiet moments to enjoy your new little bundle. I will only be providing this service on a very limited basis, so please inquire and book as soon as you can. Sessions are priced at $400
