Your Birth, woven with Love and Support
LoS Angeles Birth Photography and Full Spectrum Doula
The day our children are born we cease to love with reason. They become our fiery purpose. They personify our challenges and become the manifestation of our strengths and power.
As we walk the path toward this new day, we pay close attention and follow the wonder as it unfolds.
We grow bigger, rounder and stronger.
Our senses explode. Is the sky bluer? The clouds faster?
Our babies show us the world in ways we never could imagine.
And we trust and shine because we are part of the miracle too.

ABOUT THE DOULATOG
Meet Diana
As a pregnancy and birth photographer and videographer, I celebrate your fiery path to parenthood—capturing the moments, raw emotions and essence of your birth through my camera lens so you can relive and share the beauty of each transcendent beat.
I am also a birth doula, passionate about honoring your parenting quest from pregnancy through birth—homebirth, hospital birth or birth center birth, whatever suits you—and during the slow-yet-furious days that follow.
love notes from families
As a Labor and Delivery Nurse and trained doula, it can be hard to find someone to provide a service you are used to providing, but the moment I met Diana, I knew she had exactly what I needed! Her gentle spirit, servant’s heart, and passion for her work is infectious and leaves you feeling so special from the moment you meet her. She provides so much more than just doula and photography services (which are both spectacular), she genuinely cares for your family and goes above and beyond to meet whatever unique needs your family may have. I’m so thankful for her all she has done for our family. I’ll never be able to repay her or thank her enough. I can only hope this review will entice other families to seek her out and invite this treasure of a woman into their lives. You won’t regret it!

Diana attended my birth in May and I’m not sure I can express in words how grateful I am. The photos she took are incredibly beautiful and evoke so much emotion. I will forever look at them and remember how I felt and the energy of those moments- she genuinely captured it all. Her editing is stunning and artful. Amazingly though, the finished product is just the icing on the cake…. her presence at my birth was a gift in itself. Diana has a such a calm, compassionate energy about her. My older children were immediately comfortable with her, as were my partner, my mom, and I. She had a lovely way of being a comforting presence and also mysteriously fading into the background to take her photos. I don’t know how she managed to snap some of the shots she got without ever interrupting a special moment. If you are looking for a doula or photographer to have present at your birth, I highly recommend Diana.

Diana is the most loving, calming, warm and gentle person – an absolutely perfect doula to provide emotional and physical support throughout pregnancy, labor and delivery. She was a constant presence, always checking in with genuine, thoughtful messages and information to help guide me and prepare me for what was ahead. I always felt comforted and confident in her approach, and I enjoyed getting to know her as we journeyed toward welcoming a new sweet life into the world. She is also a wonderful photographer and perfectly captured my last moments with my daughter before having to share the spotlight, as well as my first incredible moments with my son. I will always cherish the memories and be grateful for Diana!

Working Together
looks like…Empathy for your experience…I believe that babies are the beginning of all that is life—the source of love and healing power to change the world.
Each birth is the origin of a new cycle that can transform our universe. To make peace with our past, we need to start by healing our births and by giving mothers the care and support they deserve to birth on their own terms.

As a Los Angeles birth doula my services strive to create loving, supportive spaces. I am here to inform, empower and advocate with you as you labor, birth, and become a parent.
