Hey there!
I’m Taylor and I’m so glad you’re here.
A little about how we got here…
Photography has been a part of my life for roughly 14 years. And like many things in life, my interest in all things motherhood (particularly, birth) was propelled by my own experience. I can imagine, though, that a little seed was planted in 2019 when a good friend of mine asked me to photograph her home birth. That experience was my first introduction to a more natural approach to birth, and I was so intrigued.
Since my own pregnancy and birth so heavily influences my passion for supporting women in that season of life, it is also at the core of my work in motherhood photography. I’d like to share my birth story for anyone interested, and to give a little background. A little head’s up…it’s somewhat heavy, but also hopeful! It was entirely opposite of the natural experience that I so deeply wanted, but the story is a real testament to God’s faithfulness. (It’s pretty lengthy.)
Shortly following the birth of my son in 2023, I decided it was time to pursue this interest in the early stages of motherhood. I have since participated in doula mentorship, where I met incredible, likeminded women who also serve this community. While I don’t currently offer strict doula services, this foundation is invaluable to me in the birth room as a photographer. It allows me to know how and when to move about the room discreetly, allowing mom to focus on the beautiful, sacred task at hand.
