Birth Photography | Northern IN Birth Photographer

The birth of your child is one of the most important, emotional and life changing events in your life.  It is a day that comes with great anticipation and leaves in a flurry. When I close my eyes and remember the day my daughter was born, my heart instantly swells with this amazing longing to know more of the details of her birth. I would love to have images of my daughter as she gasped her first breath of air, her lips, her eyes, her tiny pink finger wrapped around her daddy's thick calloused one for the very first time. I see images all the time of these things...but none of them are images of ME and MY newborn daughter.


Birth photography is something that is just for you, an experience that most of us only get to feel a handful of times . I know that the decision to hire a photographer to capture your baby's birth-day is a big one, so please, if you have any questions for me before or after deciding capture your baby's birth on film, don't hesitate to contact me. I would love to talk with you and share my experiences and information.


My main goal in capturing your birth is to be there...without being there. I am as unobtrusive as possible and avoid using a flash at all times (unless discussed beforehand). The first thing I must point out is, no this will not be graphic. Often this is the first question or statement that comes up with the mention of birth photography. The intent behind birth photography is to recreate all the moments in the delivery that no one has time to document. The images are tasteful, emotional and will touch your heart,  and your baby's heart, for the rest of both of your lives. Just imagine looking at images from your first breath of life or the first time your parents cried as they gazed at their new baby. The idea is powerful.


If you are interested in capturing the birth of your baby, please contact me so we can talk. Since I am just starting out in this area of photography, I am offering a special rate of $200. And if you hire me to capture your birth, I will also offer a discount on a newborn photo shoot in your home a few days later. Please email me at littlegiftsphotography@gmail.com to get more information about what a birth session includes.
