A Word from our Mamas
Linsday, Birth Center Birth
“I will forever be grateful to Jennifer for capturing the beautiful images and video of the birth of our daughter. Birth is so sacred and from the first time I met Jennifer, I knew she was the right fit for us. Not only did the pictures and video exceed our expectations, she was a calming presence in my birth space. I never considered having a videographer but I am so happy I didn’t pass up on this. I will cherish the video for a lifetime and I hope that when my daughter watches it someday, she will be just as grateful to have this memory.”
Stephanie, Home Birth
“If it were up to me, every expecting parent would have a doula. And it would be Jen. And yes, I say parent because she supported both of us. It was so important for Michael to be at every appointment, every birth class and to be seen as an important support in our baby’s birth. Jen looked after both of us so well.”
Kaitlyn, Birth Center Birth
“We had such an incredible experience with Jennifer! Our original doula ended up being busy with another birth at the time of my labor starting. While this made me panic, Jennifer quickly proved to be a voice of calm and strength that I needed. She talked me through contractions and changing pain levels on the phone and gave the best advisement on when to head to the birth center. On top of all of her doula knowledge and care, she ended up taking the most incredible photos and video for us after our sweet son was born and I will truly cherish the memories forever. Postpartum, she sent several check-ins (even though she wasn’t my original doula!). She was attentive, available, and confident in my power. While she wasn’t my original doula, I would absolutely choose her from the start! She will no doubt make your birth a special experience.”
