BIRTH PHOTOGRAPHY IS MY GREATEST PASSION
These collections are about more than photographs of the day. They're a way to return to your birth and see the story from a perspective you couldn't have had while you were living it.
To see your own strength. The way your partner held and looked at you. The joy of the moment you met your baby. All the things happening around you that you couldn't see because you were busy being in it.
Let's find the collection that fits your family.
EVERY BIRTH COLLECTION INCLUDES
A third-trimester consultation. We’ll meet in person, talk through your birth plans, get to know each other, and make sure I understand what matters most to you.
On-call from 38 weeks. I’m on-call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week until your baby arrives. Your investment covers the 3 a.m. wake-up calls, the false alarms, and the holidays spent waiting with my phone on loud.
A calm, experienced presence. More than that, it covers experience. Calm presence. Advocacy through observation. Cheering you on when you need it most, and someone who understands the weight of the room she walks into.
When your baby decides it’s time, I’ll be there ready to document it all.
Your story, thoughtfully preserved. Every image in your birth gallery is hand-edited and delivered in high resolution, so you can return to these moments for years to come.
Sneak peeks within 48 hours. Whether I’m documenting your birth or a lifestyle session, you’ll have a few images to hold onto while the rest of your gallery comes together.
Your full gallery within 6 weeks. Every image is carefully edited and delivered in an online gallery, ready to download, share, and revisit whenever you need to.
We offer flexible payment plans for every package, so your investment is manageable and stress-free. All Packages require a $500 nonrefundable retainer to secure your spot on the calendar.

Testimonials
"Colleen is such a joy! We got to have her at the birth of our second and I am so glad we did! She made us feel so comfortable, encouraged and safe. Her photos are amazing! I wish i would have had her at both of my births. You will have a good time having her around and you will get photos that you will cherish for the rest of your life. I can't recommend her enough!"
Jenny & Colby
"Do yourself a huge favor and hire Colleen. She is an incredibly talented photographer but more importantly, she’s an amazing human who is such a joy to be around. By the time you are done with your photo session, you will feel like old friends! Cannot recommend her any more highly."
Kristen & Alex
"Colleen is priceless!! She’s the sweetest soul. I’m pretty sure we FaceTimed for an hour for my first consult. She came over to meet my kids before our home birth, so they were comfortable with her, and my daughter hugged her goodbye 🥹. I think that just speaks volumes about her soul and her character!! HIRE THE BIRTH PHOTOGRAPHER!!! You won’t regret it!!!

STEP 01
Lets Chat
We’ll set up a Zoom or FaceTime call, where we’ll make sure we’re a good fit, because birth is intimate, and you deserve a photographer who gets you. I’ll answer all your questions, and you’ll leave feeling confident that I’m the right person to document your story.
STEP 02
Secure Your Spot
I take a limited number of births each month (because sleep is nice, but I also prioritize quality over quantity). After we talk, you’ll sign a contract and put down a retainer. Don’t wait too long, babies run on their own schedules, but my calendar doesn’t!
STEP 03
While Waiting
You focus on resting, nesting, and dreaming up your birth, I’ll handle the rest. During this time, I’ll send over a birth guide and a quick questionnaire to learn about your hopes, preferences, and any must-have shots. We’ll also schedule a time to meet in person to walk through your birth plan and chat about how I can best support you.
STEP 04
Baby Time
When those early labor signs kick in, keep me in the loop. The moment you’re calling your midwife, doula, or heading to the hospital, I’m on standby. Once things pick up, I’ll be on my way to capture every beautiful moment!
STEP 05
Relive Your Story
While you are soaking up those newborn snuggles and adjusting to this beautiful new life in your arms. I’ll be working my magic behind the scenes. Within 48 hours of your birth, you’ll get some sneak peeks to swoon over and share with family, and in 6 weeks, your full gallery will be ready, packed with all the raw, emotional, and unforgettable moments of your birth story.
A Little Note From Me to You...
One of my favorite parts of birth photography is getting to know you before the big day. I want to know what makes you feel safe, what you need from the people in your corner, and what you absolutely do (or do not!) want happening in your birth space. I love walking in already knowing you, your wishes, and how I can best support you.
Because birth is a pretty big deal, and I want us to feel like a team before things get wild. 😉
I’m so excited to hear more about you, your baby, and the birth you’re envisioning. I included some dates and times I’m available to chat in my email, so take a look and let’s get something on the calendar! Bring all your questions, your hopes, your what-ifs, and your very specific requests. I’m all ears.
