24/7 from 38 weeks on. Yes, even if it’s 3am.

Baby time is baby time and I’m here for it. I’ll probably have coffee in hand… especially if it’s the middle of the night. And I’ll probably show up in my go to ‘uniform’— some version of comfy pants, a headband, and if little eyes aren’t around, my ‘Girl, You’re a Badass’ shirt. Because let’s be real.. I just rolled out of bed and you, my friend are a total badass! Consider it my first pep talk of your Birth Day.

Missing a birth is really rare. During my on call time, I am never more than about an hour from your birth location. It’s super important to keep in close contact with updates, and I would rather be there too long than not make it.
I also work closely with several fantastic area photographers in the event that I do need a back-up due to illness or an emergency. If your birth happens very quickly, I will still be on my way as soon as possible to capture those first few hours with your little one.

Whether it’s scheduled or emergent, c-sections are sometimes necessary. I will be there with you as long as I can for support and again in recovery. If you know that you will have a planned c-section, my recommendation is St. Thomas Midtown. I have completed their OR training and can be with you even in the OR.

As soon as you get that positive!! I typically limit my birth schedule to 2 births each month. My schedule fills up quickly and I am often booking 7-9 months out. You can book your Birth Story as soon as you're ready, and if you would like to set up a registry for a baby shower or a payment plan that gives us time to do so.

Yes!! I know that every family has a budget, and I'm happy to help you plan the best way to afford documenting your birth.

I offer monthly payment options and gift registries so that your friends and family can contribute to capturing this amazing time in your lives. (who needs 22 onesies anyway!!)

In a post Covid world, policy can and does change rapidly, but I stay up to date on visitor restrictions.

The short answer though that yes, many area hospitals are allowing visitors and even siblings at births again!! I am also a certified doula, so even if visitor policy does change again, I would be allowed to support you during labor. If for any reason I cannot be there, your session fee will transfer to another session of your choice.

Yes! I work directly with Tennessee Placenta Services. They are fabulous and we can coordinate pick up of your placenta after baby is here so that you don’t have to worry about it!

On occasion I have availability to serve solely as a doula at your birth.

I also offer postpartum doula services. If this is the support you’re looking for, please submit an inquiry and I will be in touch.

While I love films, I understand that this may not be for everyone. Occasionally I have availability to serve solely as your photographer at your birth. If this is the support you’re looking for, please submit an inquiry and I will be in touch.
