"To give birth" - "Dare alla luce" is: "To give to the light." As a photographer, captivated observer of life, a woman, and a mother.. my most accomplished and beautiful work has been to capture a woman giving to the light. Someone's first breaths, first moments of life.. being embraced with love and joy. The true strength of a woman. There are some moments that cannot just be explained, moments that quick snapshots from tearful loved ones and cellphone pictures cannot touch, that's where I come in. The choice of birth photography is a large commitment for a photographer. Birth is completely unpredictable. After our in person meet and talking over your plan, your vision, what you'd like from these photos, getting to know each other a bit; I'm officially ONCALL 24 hours a day from 38 Weeks until you give birth! Depending on your wishes, and whether you're having a hospital, birth center, or home birth I will show up during active labor and stay till after 1-2 hrs post birth. Capturing the littlest details, and the biggest moments. Or for those whom either have things move unexpectedly where I cannot attend the birth, including c sections.. also for mothers wanting privacy for their experience, I can be available for a special "Fresh 48" package to arrive post birth to still be able to capture the newest freshest little face around and meeting family. From your birth will come a beautiful collection of edited images and a custom made hardback book of photos as a memento. Message me for packages and pricing.
