birth stories

You are their home.
You are their heart.
You are their sustenance.
You are their mom.

Each time I look at           
of the birth of my daughter, I am 
overcome with        
     

ecstasy.

I love doing births with  HEIDI.             

—  Marsha jackson, certified nurse midwife
founder of birthcare and women's health

She captures the essence of the birth and maneuvers around without interfering with the flow of the birth. It is always amazing to see the pictures after the birth...you remember the moment, but you don't remember Heidi being in the midst at the time the photo was taken!

cinematic films

A cinematic film is a handcrafted, artistic telling of your birth experience. Think more soaring Hollywood epic than reality-TV. This is not a music video. We work together to co-create an overarching narrative that imbues your film with your own voice, emotion, and personality. A photo memorializes 1/200 of a second in time while a cinematic film puts you in the room where it happened. There's nothing quite like it.

HERE'S THE THING...

It's all there for you when you're ready.

When you're birthing a new human, it's like traveling to another world and bringing them back with you. You go deep inside yourself to do so, and afterward there is often a haze. What happened? What was the sequence? Your memories might be blurry, and you might struggle to process this momentous transformation that took place.

I give you images and films that put you inside that moment, that journey. What it looked like, what it felt like, what it sounded like.
