KANSAS CITY NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER

The first days after your baby’s birth are fragile, sometimes they are a blur but at the same time delightful, full of cuddling, bonding and getting to know each other. I offer this special session to support you and make you feel taken care of and loved. I honor the postpartum sacred time and I want to hold space for you, we move slowly in the rhythm that baby and you need.
Thanks to my experiences in doula work, education and photography, instead of having multiple people coming multiple times a day, with me you are able to rest, recover and only have a one visit. A visit where you can be yourself, we can talk about your birth experience, your feelings. I will answer any of your breastfeeding and postpartum questions.

Mother’s soul package

Postpartum doula care, photography session, herbal bath

These all work beautifully together, helping you feel cared for and celebrated in this sacred season.

I come usually a day or two after birth, I will bring you a nourishing meal, a drink, some flowers and help out with whatever is needed. We can chat about your birth, breastfeeding, I can do your laundry or dishes etc.

I will also prepare a healing herbal bath for you and your baby or I just bring the herbs and you can take a bath whenever you are ready.

You get to choose to have an herbal bath, fresh baby photographed or if you choose for me to come later, not immediately after birth, we will document you and your baby as a lifestyle newborn session.
