Mr. L's 2nd Birthday Portraits

I remember like it was yesterday getting the call that she is in active labor and moving fast. Pull up to the hospital with a text that she is 10cm and pushing, run to the security station flashing my badge and walking in to him crowning. Wheww I made it!!!

Gosh where on earth has the time gone?! It cant be possible that you are two


 Overalls, no shirt and chucks.... This little guy has stolen my heart <3

Beautiful Water Birth at Baby+Company in Cary NC


Words cannot even begin to describe how powerful, empowering and purely beautiful this birth was to witness. I got a text message about 3:30am stating that contractions are steady and will be heading to the birthing center shortly to be checked. A short time later she said she deiced to come back home and labor as long as possible. A little before 8am i get a text that contractions are strong and water broke. At that time i knew it was game time. Jumped out of bed, got dressed, grabbed my gear and headed to the birth center, a quick/long 45 mins. As I walk into the room I can tell things have progressed very quickly, her doula Hannah gave me a signal that it was game time! I grabbed my camera out of the bag and didn't even get to place my flash before she started to push. Within a few short moments baby was born and in his mommas arms. 

The doulas from WomanWise doula collective have become my second family. Being able to be in the room with two of my colleagues, one birthing the other doulaing was beyond rewarding. Watching and experiencing your calm presence Hannah was beyond words and Candace you my dear are a birthing goddess! 

<3 Congratulations Candace and Daniel on your baby boy <3

Fresh 24 at Forsyth Medical Center



I had the blessing of meeting this adorable family of now 5 as they welcomed into the world there first girl. As I waited in the waiting room for mom and baby to come out of the OR I sat with the most down to earth, Godly women called Grandma. The joy and love that radiated from her was breathtaking. As we waited for mom to join us in the room Grandma was beside herself soaking up this little ball of joy who she called 'RoseBud'. I have never seen such a content wide eyed only hours fresh baby as she soaked up every part of her Grandma. 


Witnessing these first is the best part of my 'job' and I thank God everyday for the path he has chosen for me <3 



We love because he first loved us - 1 John 4:19

Scripture Birth Affirmations


I have found that Birth Banners hanging in the birthing room or cards to look at while birthing are great focal points and reminders that YES I CAN DO THIS! 

What better Birth Affirmations then the scriptures from the Bible. Words from our savor Christ wrapping around you and your birth room.

I have found a few scriptures that really called to me. Please feel free to copy, save and print and use in your birth space.

<3 Happy Birthing <3
