Did you know that among the many benefits of place

Did you know that among the many benefits of placentophagy - aka consuming your placenta after birth- many TCM doctors recommend it to improve fertility?
This little beauty here was gifted to someone who has been working really hard to conceive.
As I was preparing it, I kept envisioning this mama-to-be with a beautiful baby in her arms.
And so it is. 💖

The dilation station. The throne. Your labor bestie.⁠
Despite its bad rep because it makes stinky things happen 💩, during labor the toilet is a sanctuary of relaxation and letting go. It is also ergonomically designed for your contractions to be effective, while allowing your body to rest in between. ⁠
This mama worked so hard and embraced it all. I want her to remember that she looked beautiful and strong. Plus the light was just so right. ✨⁠

‘Tis is the season! For me it’s the time of year when I am so lucky to reconnect with many of my clients and swoon over their babies. Some I have been so lucky to watch enter the world, others who have met few weeks after and who keep coming back.
I often can’t believe how fast time is passing and how quickly these little sweet bunnies are growing. Photographing them and their family is a renewed honor and joy.

Your children belong to you. Not the Government, n

Your children belong to you. Not the Government, not the school you send them to, not the Church you might be attending.
You do not own them as property, but they are your motivation to protect them, guide them and support them on the journey. In this sense, they are yours.
So when in birth we talk about questioning our care providers, we want to come from a place of love and respect for our children. It can be as simple as an act of love and respect toward our own bodies, which are our children's very first home.
If by asking questions and fighting for parental choice, before, during and after birth ( and happily ever after) you find yourself ruffling feathers that have been combed for way too long by others, just know that this is where social justice begins.
Please know you are not alone. Please know the love of a mother can be stronger than a million armies. We want peace, but that doesn't mean remaining silent when they attempt taking our children away. Raise up. Our children, our choice.

Whether you are ready or not, your baby will bring

Whether you are ready or not, your baby will bring the best out of you. You will find that your love for them has no boundaries and walking through fire for them will become as easy as taking a hot shower.
As your birth Doula and photographer, I am so in awe of the process.
There is a moment when I finally lock eyes with my clients and I see that look that says: "damn you warned me, but I almost didn't believe it was possible".
And it is hard to hold myself from shouting from the rooftops how beautiful it's going to be, because my job is not to tell you all about it, but to hold your hand during the process and possibly document it, for you, if you grant me the honor.
Birth is not always a straightforward process and often it has a complicated outcome, even when on the outside it looks speak and span. But I know it is all so worthy and beautiful, thank you for walking this journey with me.

Proudly serving birth & family photography along with doula services to the Greater Los Angeles & Santa Monica area.
