    Instagram post 17844189475770294 Today I am grateful for life. And grateful to get to document life coming into this world. Document parents becoming parents, each and every time. I'm grateful to have been given this ability and for people to invite me into such a sacred space. Birth is so beautiful, raw, intimate and special. Every. Single. Time. Birth can be scary and is certainly hard work too. BUT it is worth being documented. I truly believe that. Elizabeth & C.J. thank you again for asking me to be in your space. I'm so glad you love your gallery & I can't wait to share bits of their story that they choose to share! Also, how beautiful is that sweet babe and cord?! “Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life.” ~ Melody Beattie • • Welcome to our #bethankfulthursdayloop .

    Instagram post 18091926259104447 This mama worked so incredibly hard to get her sweet girl earthside. Do you recognize her from the maternity image I shared, in the purple and white dress by the water? Erica Watching this mama pull from her inner, raw strength was just magical. She was strong, supported by her husband, mother and father and her birth team. I'm curious what was one thing that stood out to you from your birth? I've recently gotten a few funny texts about moments I documented or was a part of at other births and it's made me think about a moment I specifically remember from each of my four births. @birthwithoutfear @wearetheyorks @birthcare_and_womens_health

    Instagram post 17850618205681660 Oh, how my heart sings with dad's and their fresh little babes. There's just something so special about watching a partner be so involved with mama and delivery and baby. C.J. supported Elizabeth so very perfectly. Watching him hold his fourth babe for the first time was just magical. The love and connection that happened instantly was precious and so treasured. ❤️✨. @dontforgetdads @birthphotogs

    Instagram post 18013892794247919 “Making the decision to have a baby is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.” - Elizabeth Stone Erica What was pregnancy like for you? Did you enjoy it? Was it hard? Myself? I'll start by saying I'd do it all over again for all four of my littles,at the same time, my pregnancies are not very easy. I was very sick, especially with my last little one, and I was high risk as we've had medical concerns each time after my first. BUT it was absolutely worth it for my sweet littles. I absolutely love documenting the 'full' story for my amazing clients. From belly, to birth, to newborn and family storytelling sessions. @wearetheyorks

    Instagram post 17933242381324605 Gosh, being at someone's birth and telling that story is truly something I can't even put into words. The relationships I get to build and often carry out are just beautiful. I remember when Maggie first reached out to me and shortly after we had a first meeting in person. I remember leaving feeling so rejuvenated and so joyous. I remember being so, so excited for them and praying that this birth would be just so very special for them. I remember the moment she found out it was twins and messaged me. And I remember knowing with certainty that this sweet family would still get their expected homebirth and that they were so incredibly strong. Today I messaged Maggie and wished her girls a happy birthday and her a happy birthing day and was met with a text back thanking me again for being there and laughing about a moment we'd both forgotten from her birth. For that I am so forever grateful. Thank YOU, for letting me be there and again happy birthday to your girls and a happy birthing day to you! ✨❤️💕. Swipe to see a few faves.

    Instagram post 18080851249190365 'Childbirth is an experience in a woman's life that holds the power to transform her forever. Passing through these powerful gates- in her own way - remembering all the generations of women who walk with her... She is never alone.' - Suzanne Arms I cannot believe that this was one year ago.... I had the absolute privilege of documenting this mama bring her sweet babes, yes twins, earthside. It was the most peaceful, love filled, joyous home birth, with Loudoun Homebirth & Healthcare. I can't wait to share a few images today of their story. The strength this mama carries is incredible. The strength every mama carries is incredible. Happy birthing day to you Maggie and a big Happy Birthday to your sweet girls! And thank you for asking me to document this journey for you!
