Your story, your strength, your baby’s first breath. Let’s make sure it’s never lost.

FAQs

  • Yes, your deposit is just $250. From there we can organise to split your payments into instalments. I am happy to tailor this to suit your needs.

  • Birth is anything but predictable, and the unexpected is to be expected. It is not always clear whether doctors or hospital staff will allow me into the theatre to capture your c-section. I will try my hardest to advocate for being in there, however if they won’t budge I will give one of my cameras to your support person to take photos. If you book with me and then discover early you have to have a planned c-section we will have time to discuss photography with your obstetric doctor. The deposit is non-refundable as this helps to protect my business due to turning away all other bookings for your on call period.

  • This is your journey and if you are uncomfortable with your photos being shared on my social media platforms, I will respect that. This is something we will go over more than once during our time together.

  • I'm based in Lower Hutt. However I offer my services across the Wellington region.

  • Over the last two years one of my realisations has been that my role varies from birth to birth. Therefore this is something we discuss during your birth plan consultation. Some people don’t want to be disturbed at all, in which case I make it my job to be calm, quiet and when I am not capturing, still. Others I have been like a friend talking in between contractions. I have also been a source of support for some mama. I put my whole heart into making sure we are the right fit from the start, and that I understand what you’re looking for so that I know I’ve exceeded your expectations.
