Documentary birth photography and film in Chicago
Birth is unpredictable, intimate and deeply personal. My approach is to document it as it unfolds, quietly and honestly, preserving not only what happened, but the small moments you may not be able to see while you're living them.
If you're considering birth photography or film, you don't need to know exactly what you want yet, let’s talk and I can help you figure it out.

Prenatal sessions can be photographed at home, outdoors or in another place that feels meaningful to you. Rather than a traditional posed maternity session, we can create something relaxed and personal that documents this moment in your life.
A short prenatal session can also be incorporated into your birth package.
Starting at $500

Birth coverage includes documentary photography (50 pictures), and a short birth film (6-10 min). We will talk beforehand about what you want to document, what you would rather keep private, who will be present, and how I can work respectfully within your birth space.
$2,000
Interest in pictures only? of film only? Single packages start at $1,200 -
Postpartum sessions take place in your home and focus on your new everyday life (feeding, resting, holding your baby, siblings meeting one another and the small details that change so quickly).
No elaborate setups are necessary. The goal is to document your family as you are.
