Birth
FAQs
How does this work?
For birth photography specifically; as you know birth is uncertain and unpredictable. Because of this I go on-call for my clients at 38 weeks, until baby is born. This means I am available for you 24/7 during that time.
What happens if you don’t make it?
This is highly unlikely, though not impossible which is why I like to talk about this with my clients.
I am extremely committed to my clients and only take on 2-3 births a month. I want nothing more than to be able to document your birth story. But if I have a birth overlap or I become sick, I will have a back up on call to attend your birth.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes, absolutely! I require a retainer to book and then we can create monthly payment options depending on the package you choose. Everything must be paid in full by 35 weeks.
I want my birth room to be dark. Is that an issue?
I definitely understand the benefits of a dark room during labor and I am committed to respecting your birth plan and space. I am a professional photographer and by hiring me you are trusting my judgement to deliver the best possible pictures I can. This could mean that I use a low flash (most people don’t even notice, it’s nothing like what you would typically think a flash would be), I may need to turn on a small lamp or open a shade a little. You can still opt no to all these options and I will absolutely respect your wishes, but there is a trade off in image quality. We will go over this in our consult when we discuss your birth plan!
What if baby comes fast?
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
Why should I hire a Birth Photographer?
Because those moments are worth remembering! This is something I deeply regret not doing with my first birth. I have nothing to look back on and I’ve forgotten so many of the small moments.
Its worth hiring a professional because we know how to work in these situations and have high quality gear. Our goal is to be a fly on the wall, you won’t even notice us. This also allows your partner, family and friends to focus solely on you and enjoy this incredible moment.
