I understand where you're coming from - the idea of having someone you trust to capture the intimate moments of your birth is appealing. And there's no doubt that your husband or midwife can take photos of your birth. But have you considered what that might entail?
During labor, your husband or midwife's focus will be on supporting you and helping you through the process. This is actually the most important job, your physical, mental and emotional health and wellbeing is a priority. You wouldn't want then to step away in the moments where you need them the most to take a photo.
And even if they do, they may not have the skills or equipment to capture professional-quality images.
When it comes to birth photography, it's not just about taking a few snapshots - it's about creating a visual story of one of the most important moments of your life. A professional birth photographer can capture the raw emotions, the details, and the beauty of your birth experience in a way that is truly unforgettable.
Let's not forget about the quality of the images if taken on their phone or camera you had hanging around the house, the results may not be up to par or worst case they may not be good at all. Professional birth photographers spend thousands of dollars to ensure they have the experience and equipment necessary to produce stunning images that you'll be proud to display on your walls and share with loved ones.
So, while it's certainly possible for your husband or midwife to take photos of your birth, it's worth considering whether they'll be able to capture the full beauty and emotion of the experience. Investing in a professional birth photographer is an investment in memories that you'll treasure for a lifetime. And if you're looking for someone who can capture those moments with a soft and personal touch, I'm here to help. Let's work together to create a beautiful and timeless tribute to the beginning of your little one's life.
Of course, it's understandable to have reservations about capturing such intimate moments. However, it's important to consider that birth is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and moments that are missed can never be recaptured.
As a professional birth photographer, I strive to document all aspects of your birth journey in a tasteful and respectful manner, including those raw, primal moments that can be so fleeting. My goal is to tell the story of your birth in a way that honors the strength, courage, and beauty of the birthing experience.
It's natural to have concerns about privacy, but you have complete control over which images are kept between yourselves and which ones you choose to share or even view. If this is your first you likely don't know exactly what to expect and the life-changing power of birth may change your point of view on what is important and what is not and even what you consider intimate and private. And if this isn't your first I'd be more than happy to pop the more intimate moments in a special folder for you to consider your decision after your birth.
I am here to support you and document your birth journey in a way that feels comfortable and authentic to you. At the end of the day, my hope is that you'll look back on these images with joy and gratitude, knowing that you captured every precious moment of your little one's arrival.
You may have seen me mention before that I want to get to know you on a personal level, this is 100% true and even extremely important to me. My whole business is all about building a personal relationship with my clients and I truly love and cherish each and every one of them. Most of the time, we become friends rather than just clients. So by the time I walk into your birth space in most occasions we are just that friends.
To make sure we get to know each other as much as possible leading up to your birth, I've designed a birth photography & doula experience that focuses on building a strong connection between us.
First, we'll hop on a phone or Zoom call to see if we "vibe" and make sure this experience will be amazing for both of us! If you have further reservations, we can even meet up for coffee. I want you to feel comfortable and confident in your choice to work with me, and I'll be investing my time and energy in you, too.
I'll provide a few questionnaires so I can better understand what you're hoping to get from our time together. This helps me serve your needs and honor your journey in the best way possible.
You'll have my email and phone number, so you can reach out anytime you like. I'll also check in from time to time to see how you're tracking through your pregnancy.
Leading up to your birth, I'll send you information packs that answer common questions and provide tips and tricks on how to get the most value from my services.
All of my birth packages include a maternity session of some kind. I absolutely love this part because it gives us a chance to spend time together and get to know each other better. It's also an opportunity for you to get used to being around me, my energy, and my camera. This is particularly great for any camera-shy daddas, but you're also welcome to keep this session all for yourself. The stunning images of this amazing time are really just a bonus!
Prior to your birth, we'll have a big catch-up where we talk about all things birth. We'll go over your hopes, dreams, desires, fears, and any points you might find hard. We'll discuss your postpartum plan, and I'm always happy to offer help and advice if you ask for it. If you're also getting my doula services, we may meet more than once.
I'm always happy to make extra plans to get to know you better (should time allow) if that's what you need. In the past, I've attended baby showers and mother blessings, and one of my clients even had an afternoon tea for all of her birth team. I never deny my clients the time to get to know me and feel comfortable with me, so let's make sure we build the best relationship possible!
Short answer - you likely will notice me but it wont be in a way you expect.
I always aim to be as unobtrusive as possible, but my goal is not JUST to capture your birth. My ultimate role is to capture your birth while ensuring you to fully immerse yourself in the experience of giving birth, remember I mentioned that you being physically, mentally and emotionally safe is my priority however important pictures will never be as important as you, your baby and your ultimate birth.
My aim is to blend seamlessly into the environment and support you in any way I can, whether that means stepping back and giving you space or holding your hand through a particularly difficult moment or if the need arrises advocating for your best interests in the birth space.
When you book with me, you're not just a client - you're a person with unique needs, desires, and experiences. I want to get to know you on a personal level, so we can work together to capture the essence of your birth experience. That way, when you're in the throes of labor, you can feel confident that I'm right there with you, capturing the moments that matter most.
My passion for birth photography extends far beyond just getting good images. It's about empowering women and supporting them in making informed choices about their birth experiences. So when you work with me, know that I am here for you every step of the way, as a true real life cheerleader that also takes kick ass images of unforgettable moments.
As a birth photographer, I am sometimes asked why my services are so expensive. I understand why this question comes up - after all, it can be hard to justify spending a significant amount of money on something that you may not have even considered before. But let me tell you, the work that birth photographers do is incredibly important and valuable.
When you hire a birth photographer, you're not just hiring someone to take pictures. You're hiring someone to capture one of the most intimate, emotional, and life-changing moments of your life. You're hiring someone to document the day that you bring a new human being into the world - a day that you will never forget. And you're hiring someone who is willing to drop everything at a moment's notice to be there for you, no matter what.
As a birth photographer, I take my role very seriously. When a client hires me, I go on call for them for approximately 4 weeks around their due date. During this time, I am ready to drop everything at a moment's notice and be there to document their birth story. I have to arrange care for my own children, stay within an hour or two of the client's place of birth, and avoid committing to anything else during this time. It's a huge commitment, but it's one that I take on with joy and excitement.
When I'm at a birth, I'm not just taking pictures. I'm there to support my clients in any way that I can - whether that means offering a hand to hold during a difficult contraction, fetching water or snacks for the laboring person, or just being a calming presence in the room. And when the baby finally arrives, I'm there to capture those first precious moments of their life, as well as the emotions and reactions of the new parents and any other family members who are present.
After the birth is over, my work is far from done. I spend hours carefully selecting and editing the best photos from the day, creating a beautiful birth story that my clients will treasure for years to come. And because I know how important it is to have these memories preserved, I invest in the best possible equipment and constantly work to improve my skills and knowledge.
So yes, birth photography can be expensive. But it's worth every penny. When you hire a birth photographer, you're not just getting someone to take pictures - you're getting a skilled professional who is dedicated to capturing the beauty and emotion of one of the most important days of your life. And as a birth photographer, I am honored to be a part of that journey with each and every one of my clients.

A
Its not just a transaction, it's an experience. .
As a birth photographer and videographer based in Mount Pleasant, I cover all of Perth and its surrounding areas. I'm familiar with various birth centers such as King Edward Memorial Hospital for Women, Fiona Stanley Hospital, St John of God Murdoch Hospital, St John of God Subiaco Hospital, and homebirth with CMP, making it easy for me to reach these locations.
Whether you're planning a calm homebirth in Mandurah, an empowering midwife-led birth in South Coogee, or a Caesarean section at Fiona Stanley Hospital, I've got you covered. I strongly believe that mothers know best when it comes to deciding the distance I should travel to capture their birth experience. If you're comfortable with me traveling long distances, including the time it takes to get organized and hit the road, I'm more than happy to make the journey.
Recently, a mother enquired about my services from a location five hours away. After discussing the logistics and the potential travel time, if the mother was completely comfortable with me traveling that distance, including the time to get sorted and hop in the car, then I was more than happy to make the journey.
However, if we come to the conclusion that the journey itself would cause undue stress and anxiety for the mother at a time when you have better things to concentrate on I would recommend finding another solution.
So in short I'm happy to have a discussion no matter how far away you may be and we will work on a contract that best suites both our needs.
I know how high the cost of living is at this present time, I also understand that birth photography at this time is a luxury that may not be affordable for everyone. Due to this I do offer payment plans on a case by case basis. Should you wish to enter into a payment plan agreement feel free to let me know at the time of booking and we will have a discussion about on that best suites both our needs.
In Perth we are very lucky to have a pool of very talented photographers that are happy to help each other out. Part of being a professional photographer is having a back up that is equally as professional in place and ready to go should they be necessary. So if I am ever unable to make your birth you will be informed as early as possible and one of my back up photographers will be sent to your birth in my place.
I choose to work only with photographers that I know and trust as such I am confident that they will conduct themselves in the correct manor within the birth-space honouring you and your journey while also documenting your birth with the same care and attention as I would.
Once your birth is over that photographer will deliver the images to me to edit so that they have a very similar if not the same look as all the other images in my portfolio. From then on we will continue the process as originally planned.
We take the time to cover this subject at length within both your contract and at our pre-birth catch up.
I strongly believe that it's impossible to appreciate the value of life without recognizing that death may sometimes be a part of that experience, and it's always a heartbreaking and challenging time. In the event of a loss or expected loss, all payments are either refundable or transferable, depending on the circumstances.
Although it can be a difficult decision, you may still want to document the birth, and I am fully trained and equipped to assist you with this. You're welcome to contact me directly or have someone close to you reach out, and we can discuss how you'd like to move forward.
Although in most cases my on-call time is from 38 weeks this does not mean that I will not attend your birth should you go into labour earlier. This is delt with on a case by case basis as I plan my commitments and holidays around my on-call periods. I will however endeavour to attend your birth or send a backup should that be at all possible.
If you know prior to booking or find our prior to your birth that you may likely deliver before the 38 week on-call period starts we can discuss this and build the required extra time into your contract this may incur an additional fee but that is dependant on the circumstances surrounding you needs.
Birth prior to 38 week may be likely in the case of multipuls, gestational diabetes and preeclampsia.
Although pregnancy beyond 42 weeks is quite rear with the current medicalised system. This is becoming more and more common as mothers feel more empowered to make informed decisions about their pregnancy and birth again this will be delt with on a case by case basis.
On most occasions however there is no issue.
I believe that birth is a unique and beautiful experience that can unfold in many different ways. Every birth is special and different, and I approach each one with an open mind and heart. I attend all kinds of births because I understand that each mother and family have their own preferences, needs, and circumstances. No matter how your birth unfolds, whether it's a homebirth, hospital birth, birth center birth, natural birth, medicated birth, water birth, C-section, or any other type of birth, I'm here to document it for you. Birth is birth, and it's always an honor for me to capture those precious moments for you to cherish for years to come.
Before you book
+ I might want a few people there is that a problem
+ Im having a water birth does that matter
+ Do I need to do anything special for you
+ I Think i might need the room to be very dark
+ If something goes wrong then what happens
+ What if my labour is very long
+ What if baby comes fast or you miss it
+ When do I call you to come in
Birth is unpredictable, to say the least - my own second baby was born in the back of an ambulance just 10 feet from my front door, which is about as unpredictable as it gets! Babies can arrive quickly, labours can feel different than expected, and unexpected circumstances like traffic jams and accidents can arise.
However, should the unexpected happen and your baby arrives before I am able to get there, I will still attend your birth and capture all the beauty that takes place in the moments and hours following the birth. In the event that I am unable to attend at all, I will send a backup photographer or doula in my place. Depending on what exactly happened, we might arrange a special fresh 48 or motherhood photo session for you at no extra cost, ensuring you have those precious early memories beautifully preserved.
For those using my doula services, we can also include additional postpartum visits to make up for any missed time.
Our contract outlines these scenarios in detail, but I'm more than happy to talk through any concerns you might have beforehand. This way, we make sure everyone is on the same page and you feel completely supported, no matter what happens. My goal is for you to feel secure and cared for, knowing that we’re prepared for any situation.
Its not uncommon to hear of labours that last 8, 14 or even 27 hours. I offer a service that covers labour and birth then up to 2 hours post partum. As such I am there for all of it, regardless of how long it takes.
If your labour goes for quite some time it is included in my contract that I have the right to call in a back up photographer for some relief. I may also step into the other room where possible for some time to sleep or step out to grab a meal or refreshment. This is all done as discreetly as possible to avoid disruption. If I feel its not helpful to your state of mind at the time I will quietly discuss my movements with your husband, partner or midwife to ensure you remain fully focused on bring your baby earthside.
While I don't enjoy discussing the possibility of things going wrong, it's important to acknowledge that preparing for the worst while hoping for the best is always a wise approach.
During our pre-birth meeting, we will cover emergency situations. At this point in your pregnancy, your care provider will have already discussed potential scenarios and plans of action with you. We will review these together and discuss your preferences should the worst occur.
We will address a range of possibilities, from sudden changes in your birth plan to avoid an emergency, all the way up to worst-case scenarios. We will also discuss your preferences regarding documentation versus privacy, particularly in emergency situations. Ultimately, I will follow the instructions of your care provider in these situations, which may include stopping photography if necessary.
Babies often come in cozy dark rooms in the dead of night and as a Perth birth photographer, I know how important it is to capture those special moments in low light.
Due to this I'm equipped with the best photography gear on the market, and I've spent countless hours mastering the art of editing low-light images to ensure they're beautifully captured.
During our pre-birth meeting, we will discuss different lighting options and how I can discreetly work around any choices you make regarding the birth space. We will also discuss the use of flash and how I can ensure that it does not hinder your birth experience, while still benefiting the final product.
It is important to note that should you have opted for film, more light may be necessary than would be for still photography.
Regardless I strive to be as unobtrusive and gentle as possible to ensure your birth experience is uninterrupted. You deserve a professional birth photographer who understands the birth process and the sacred nature of the birth-space.
Birth photography is the art of telling the story infront of me as it unfolds. So aside from a quick first family picture taken once all is said and done I will not ask you to pose or direct you in any way.
Leading up to your birth, I may offer you a couple of emails with suggestions on how to best set up your birth space, things to be mindful of once your baby arrives, and some tips and tricks to ensure you get the best possible service from me. Please note that you are not in any way obligated to follow or use these suggestions; they are merely ideas that I have gathered over time that you may find helpful or interesting, for example: Leaving 1.5 meter between the birth pool and any other furniture for ease of moment or ensuring your fairy lights have a static light setting and are not flashing.
Your birth and the resulting photographs/film will be full of beauty and powerful emotions, no matter how it transpires.
So in short no you don't need to do anything special in your birth space for me but you may like to.
You are welcome to invite anyone you like into your birth space, as long as they make you feel safe and cared for. In some cultures, birth is truly a family affair and a joyous celebration, where the new arrival is welcomed into a village of people who deeply love them.
As a professional, I am accustomed to working around older siblings, midwives, grandmothers, doulas, and even pets, and there are typically no issues. However, as a photographer, I understand that you have invested in documenting your birth story and want the best possible images. Therefore, I may need to politely request that those who do not need to be in a certain space to move, if necessary.
If you plan to invite people into your birth space who have not been in that environment before, I suggest discussing with them the role of your birth team and how you would like them to approach the situation. If you have any concerns about setting boundaries, I am happy to draft a letter or email that politely describes the best way we can work together. It's worth noting that having more people present increases the chance of obstructed views and the possibility of missing important moments.
All about the birth
You will receive a little sneak peek of your images within 24-48hrs of your birth. These are usually 3-5 quickly edited images that you may use to announce your birth to family and friends.
Your full gallery will be delivered between 2 and 6 weeks later this is usually dependant on what my work load looks like and the time of year - did I mentioned I am a single mum. school holidays can really put a spanner in the works particularly when you are lovingly hand editing each and every image.
If you opted for a birth video your film will delivered between 6 and 12 weeks as ensuring your birth film is absolutely perfect does take some time.
I am a true believer in telling your whole birth story. Every moment is precious and every image adds to the story. Perth birth-stories can are always more than 100 images but can be up to 300 images. These are primarily provided in colour, with a number of black and white images & duplicates where this is more ascetically pleasing. I use my experience and creative eye to decide which images will have a greater more beautiful impact in black and white or colour.
I most certainly do. All my birth clients received 10% off any of my other packages if booked prior to or within 3- days of bubs arrival. So if you decide that you want to keep your birth images private but still want beautiful images to share with family and friends please feel free to reach out. The sooner the better as this is subject to availability. I also offer intimate motherhood session if your looking for something that capture this great, vast, amazing, breathtaking love that you have so recently discovered.
I truly believe that your stunning images should be avaliable to enjoy, this means not having them sat on a harddrive in the back closet or stuck on your phone. I love nothing more than watching my kids page through albums full of images detailing so much of their lives giggling and asking constantly "Is this me?"
Thats why I have teamed up with some of Australias premier printing companies to offer you some of the most stunning, unique and beautiful prints and products. Just ask for my prints and products pricing guide and I'll send it through. In edition depending on my work load if you have something extra special in mind let me know and I will see what I can arrange.
You most certainly will - if you want to.
I just love seeing how my clients are going after birth and to more formally meet their beautiful little ones. Id be up for a visit any time. I also have a number of clients book in Motherhood and family shoots later on in life.
Your images are just that - your images. I will not use your images in any way that you have not agreed to.
Once you have received your gallery I can do one of three things
1) Keep your gallery completely private. Those images will stay in your personalised gallery and on my hard drive until they need to be deleted for the sake of freeing up space. (Contractually this is 30 days but in most cases I can hold them for roughly a year)
No one can access this gallery without your password which remains private even from me.
2) Share only some of the images. This one gets a little complicated but can be done. Many of my clients like to review the images that are shared which I completely respect. A few weeks after your gallery is delivered I will send you a set of images that I would love to share via your gallery. From there we work on an OPT OUT system where you flag or remove the images you would NOT like to be shared. To avoid mistakes and confusion I will provide a reasonable time frame that this will need to be completed in. After this date any images that have not been flagged or deleted will be avaliable for me to use for business purposes.
3) All images may be used for business purposes.
What does for "business purposes" mean? This mean that they may be shared on social media, on my website much like this page, submitted for competitions, submitted for publication, submitted as stock images for platforms like Canva or Istock and shared with other birth professionals to use - one example is a local hospital requested images to update their anti-natal class workbooks and slide shows.
I would encourage you to share as many images as you are comfortable with. Care for women in pregnancy, birth and post partum is still well below the standard that it should be. Seeing images of real life people in real life births helps raise awareness to this issue. A small gesture like sharing your images can make a massive difference down the track for our children and their children. Then there is the added bonus of helping further support my business and ensuring that my work is seen.
I want you to feel truly comfortable working with me, and if that means I am answering multipul questions before you book, through or journey together or on the other-side I am more than happy to.
