The Fast Homebirth of Scarlett
Julie and Alan are two of the sweetest people I’ve worked with. They’re both chiropractors in Lakewood and have helped so many people live fuller and healthier lives. Julie reached out to me about documenting their second birth - and their very first homebirth. Julie’s second pregnancy was different than her first in many ways. This sweet baby liked to go breech on her chiropractic mama (who eventually got her nestled and cozy head-down) and she also gestated longer than her sister (who came out at 38 weeks). Julie’s labor was also faster than her first. She went from barely any contractions…to contracting every two minutes. Both me and her midwife barely made it before sweet baby Scarlett came flying into the world.

A VBAC at Littleton Adventist
Annie was hoping and preparing for a VBAC for her second birth. She believed that her body could do it, and she found an incredibly supportive care provider and hospital. South Denver OB/GYN works with SO many VBAC families each year, and their midwives have an amazing record of helping families achieve their goals. Annie’s story and images are so inspiring…especially for families who are attempting a VBAC of their own.

Umbilical Cord Images
when I started to photograph births, I found cords to be one of my favorite things to capture during a birth story. Each umbilical cord is completely unique (just like each baby), and I found myself fascinated with the differing hues, lengths, and coiling.
