When do you ideally like to take photos of a newborn?
I like for newborns to be under 2 weeks old. At this stage, the baby is still sleeping the majority of the day and
they are easier to get into a position.
Please tell us more about birth photography.
When I say I do ‘birth photography’, I usually get a crazy look or get asked why I would want to do something
like that. Some are slightly uncomfortable with the thought of someone being in the room at possibly the most
vulnerable moment in a woman’s life. In all actuality, it is quite the opposite. I am there to capture the little details
that you forget about later on. The time on the clock, the look on her husband’s face when told she’s fully dilated,
the pain of labor, and of course the joy of birth. I love how each story is so different from beginning to end. When
booking a client I do a meet-and-greet to find out their birth plan; water birth, natural delivery, with/without
epidural, or cesarean section. I am on-call from the time you book me until the time the baby is delivered, not
your average 9-5 job! I love every minute of what I do; to say it is amazing is an understatement!
