Vail Birth Photography

The birth of your child will be one of the most emotional and momentous occasions of your life. Unfortunately, adrenaline and excitement cloud your memory. Birth stories are a photo-journalistic documentary of your baby’s arrival.  When you hire me, you are choosing me to be a part of your birth team.  I am there for you from the time you hire me, until baby is born and many of my birth clients become friends.  If you are looking for authentic, vibrant, and timeless images that capture the heart and soul of this day, then you’re in the right place.

Specializing in photo-journalism, my style is modern yet timeless, classically clean, emotionally charged, and full of life. I prefer to capture authentic moments as they naturally happen. The candid moments, a heartfelt laugh, a warm gentle embrace. The intimate expressions, the tiny details, moments that will never happen again. A tear in a father’s eye as he sees his daughter for the first time. The breathless moment a mother holds her child for the first time. The smell of your baby’s hair. A reaction, personalities, relationships. With each image I hope your heart swells with the same raw emotions you experienced the day your child was born. I love using as much available light as possible. I try to be unobtrusive giving you room to express yourselves. Follow me as I bring your story to life through custom photography and give you a tangible keepsake to remember this day for years to come.

Given intimate nature of the shoot, I’ve been asked by birthing mothers to keep their images off my website.
