An Added Bonus: Complimentary Birth Photography

As a seasoned birth doula and professional photographer, all birth doula packages come with complimentary photography during labour & birth. Without needing to add an extra person to your birth space, I bring my Fujifilm X-S20 to capture the moments that often become a foggy blur after the wave of childbirth! With an artistic touch, my film-style photography (black & white and colour) helps shape the memory of birth—or loss—highlighting moments of strength, resilience, love and connection!

“I was in 43 hours of labour and I don't think I would have done it without Leah's help and knowledge. She provided the utmost level of service and care even in the pre-labour stages.”
