frequently asked questions
What do the prenatal appointments look like?
Each prenatal appointment is about 1-2 hours long depending on what you are needing. We will get to know one another, chat about your journey and your goals for your birth, talk about partner support and answer any questions you may have.
What does birth photography entail exactly?
As a birth photographer I am there to capture the natural process of your birth. Your laboring time, the birth itself, and those precious moments of meeting your baby for the first time.
What areas do you service?
I am located in Broomfield and will service: Lyons, Boulder, Longmont, Superior, Lafayette, Louisville, Westminster, Arvada, Thornton, Denver and Golden.
How long will it be until I get the full maternity and birth gallery back?
I will send you your full gallery for maternity photos and your birth within 2 weeks, but you will receive a few sneak peaks within 1 day!
What does "sliding scale" mean?
I want my services to be available to people who may not be able to afford my full costs and therefore my services are offered on a scale, starting with the start price and going up depending on your ability to pay for the services!
Do you work with all birthing spaces?
Yes! While my personal expertise lay with homebirth and freebirth, I can absolutely attend your birth in any space you choose for it to take place.
WHAT IS YOUR ON-CALL TIME?
I will be available to you throughout your pregnancy through texting and calling but mu physical on-call time is 37 weeks-birth
what is the benefit of having 2 doulas?
Ali from Sweet Embrace Doula is and I work together to provide you a more well rounded doula service. With me focusing on photographing and Ali focusing on physical support, together we ensure your needs are fully met and you have a more comprehensive birth photo gallery.
What happens if you can't attend my birth?
I have Ali as my backup doula in case I cannot attend a birth. If something happens to prevent me from attending your birth as a photographer ahead of time I will do my best to find you a new photographer. If something happens urgently while you are in labor preventing me from attending you will only pay for the services you received (maternity photos, pre and post natal appointments etc). We will discuss all of this in the contract!
