Honor the eternal
within you.
Your birth is one of the single most important days of your life but the days following that event can be hazy and fuzzy to remember. How can one possibly hold onto those precious moments when you first cradled your baby in your arms, as if time itself paused to witness such pure love? And yet, in the delicate dance of life, the most profound moments often whisper for our presence, not behind the lens, but fully immersed in their embrace.
As a mother, each day unfurls like a tapestry woven with essential duties, where the mere act of recollection feels like scaling mountains. Amidst the bustle of day to day activities, finding a moment to capture those precious moments seems as elusive as catching a fleeting breeze in your hands.
You’ve poured your heart and soul into the sacred journey of motherhood, every step a testament to your unwavering dedication. Your birthing experience deserves to be enshrined among your most cherished memories, adorned with breathtaking images that will forever dance in the gallery of your heart.
Hi! I'm Sarah!
I get a thrill just thinking about capturing beautiful, connecting moments, especially at birth.
I believe the birth of a mother is just as important as the birth of a child. The transformative power of a birth can launch a woman into a whole new world from which she’ll never come back.
I see it as my job to document it for her. I’ve travelled the motherhood journey (and still do!) know her pain of always being the photographer, never the photographed, and I know that her children will want pictures of her with them.
I would be so honored to join your birth team as a preserver of important memories and moments. I work exclusively with expecting mothers who trust me to document their unique birth in the way that it unfolds. They trust me to use my creativity to document the precious moments as they bond with their partner and their newborn.

Sophie and Darren's story
Sarah met with us and we felt this instant connection. After looking at her portfolio, we knew that we needed her to document our birth story of meeting little Asher. She kept constant communication with us as soon as she went on call. We kept her up-to-date on appointments and what our providers were saying to us. When it came time to go to the birth center, we called Sarah and she got there soon after talking. She was a constant, calming presence in the room and we barely noticed the flash or her moving around to get the best shot. We had complete confidence in her and we were not disappointed when she finally sent some sneak peeks of the moment our son was born. We shed tears together looking through the final images when she had finished. Her images and captures took us back to those challenging, but bonding, moments together, and we were reminded of the incredible feelings we felt when Sophie pushed Asher out and he was brought to her chest.
10/10 - Highly recommend Sarah to anyone who wishes to have their birth documented.
If you're ready to preserve the defining moments of motherhood forever and to be seen and celebrated as the powerful woman you are, then what are you waiting for?
If you're ready to honor your birthing experience and respect your journey by having me capture incredible moments of strength and love, I can't wait to meet you!
Steps
- Make a list of all the memories you want to have documented at your birth. I’ve got lots of great ideas and I’ll be there to watch every moment, but if there are shots you want to make sure you don’t miss, I want to know about them!
- Schedule a free consultation with me.
- Decide that you can’t live without me at your birth (yay!), sign a contract and pay a 20% deposit.
- Rest and prep for your birth, making payments along the way (if you sign up for a payment plan). Make sure payments are complete by 37 weeks!
- Communicate with me in the early stages of labor. I love celebrating your progress and being aware of every important moment leading up to when you call me to be there.
- I’ll come to your birth place and capture your beautiful experience.
- Cry and cry over the beautiful sneak peeks I send 24 hours after you just gave birth.
- Gush over the images I send 2 weeks after the birth (or 2 weeks after your final payment is received), knowing full well you’ll never birth another child again without me there documenting everything!
Birth photography is expensive!
But It's worth it. I accept payment plans, trades and I have a registry available for those who wish to gift you money!
My partner doesn't see the value in having photos of my birth:
Men who see themselves as a participant in their child's birth supporting the child's mom will improve the relationship with their partner and with their new child. Men will also be less prone to postpartum mood disorders as well as their significant other. Many past clients' partners have had amazing experiences with me as the photographer and are so grateful for those priceless images they now have from that special day.
My husband doesn't feel comfortable with another person in the room.
I promise to be fly on the wall and that I will just capture your story and not insert myself in your story. You will probably not even notice me there as I will just blend into the background.
