Baby Ruth: A Jacksonville, NC Birth Story
Oh hey there, internet! I’m finally feeling ready to be all the way back from my maternity hiatus (well, internet hiatus, I was still taking pictures). I had my own sweet babe on May 28th and (obviously 😉 ) she’s perfection and we are all head over heels in love with her chunky self. Way […]

A Beautiful Midwife Supported Birth at New Hanover Regional Medical Center
I think birth teaches us to step out of black and white and embrace the gray. To learn that there is strength in vulnerability and the miraculous in our everyday. Best case scenario, we go with the flow: doing our normal routines until the intensity lets us know it’s time to go to “labor land,” […]
Welcoming Baby B: A Wilmington NC Home Birth
If you’ve spent any time on birth forums and pages you may have seen this quote floating around: “A home birth is like a college party: people spend all night trying to get you to drink, a kiddie pool gets filled in your bedroom, and the next day you’re not sure who saw you naked.” […]
Burnt Mill Creek First Birthday Family Session
It has been such a joy to watch this sweet little guy grow and change over his first year. This smart mama booked three smaller family sessions when her babe was a newborn so that she could preserve just a taste of him and family at each age and I think it’s genius. Of course, […]
A January Home Birth in Wilmington, NC
For birth photography, I am on call from 37 weeks until baby shows up and this sweet babe kept us all waiting for his arrival! Of course it was well worth the wait, and when the time came his amazing mama rocked his labor and birth; making what is never easy look it. Her husband […]
I don’t want to say too much about this Mother’s Day project because I want you to look these women in the eyes and I want you to read their stories. All different, all brave. I would really really love it if you could leave a little note of appreciation for them being willing to […]
Lifestyle Newborn Session at Home
There are fewer and fewer mysteries left in this world, we have become smarter and faster and as is our nature we have poked and prodded and figured and experimented. Now, please don’t get me wrong, science is definitely a thing that I am into, but I also feel the yearning for wonder. For those […]
Empowered Hospital Birth at Betty Cameron
It’s no secret that I love birth, not just birth photography. I believe in the sacred and transformational power of the process on the mother, baby, and relationships around them. Although I hope and strive to create beautiful images (despite the curveballs of lighting, location, and timing that birth photography often throws at me!), my […]
Quarterly Review (my heart on film)
For 2018 I set a goal that was more for my family than my business, but the way it has already impacted my work has been so positive I feel like I need to share it here. As a film photographer, there’s a price tag on my work. Whether it’s personal or professional, every time […]
