“There's a secret in our culture and it's not that birth is painful. It's that women are strong.”

Your birth story is the greatest first date of your life. You’ve already fallen in love and now you get to finally meet them.

First is a consultation. Welcoming someone into your birth space is a decision that should not be taken lightly. We’ll meet each other prior to booking so you can ask me all the questions, get to know me a bit more, and talk about your birth plan.

I will go on call at 37 weeks until your little one arrives. You’ll have access to my personal cell so when the time comes, day or night, you give me a ring and I’ll be on the way. 

When you do go into labor I will be there as early as you want me to be. A lot of moms like to have their whole story from early labor to golden hour documented. Some prefer to early labor without anyone's presence. It is up to you as to when you want me to arrive. Communication is key. I will always stay back and not disturb your space when I am there. After your baby is born I will stay up to two hours to document the first moments with your baby.

You will have 5-10 images back to you within 24 hours of me leaving your birth. Your full gallery will be delivered within 3 weeks. 

I’ve been photographing births since 2020 and have the experience, knowledge, and equipment for any lighting situation, tight space, or large space. I can photograph as a fly on the wall with a silent shutter or I can be close and offer hands-on doula support as I document.

We’ll talk prior about your birth plan and how you wish your birth space to be respected. I have the expertise to get all the beautiful moments in an artistic way while keeping privacy top of mind - aka I’m good at getting the right angles. 

I am a Kansas City birth photographer that also serves St Joseph, Smithville, Platte City, and surrounding areas. I will come to your home, hospital, or birthing center and will support you and your birth plan. I have photographed  in hospital rooms, operating rooms for c-sections, home births, hospital births, and birthing centers. Each one special and deserving of documentation. No matter where you choose to welcome your baby, I’ll be there to support you and help you remember those first moments.

Kind Words

Goldie is incredibly talented, supportive, caring and I will be forever grateful that she was a part of my birth team! She captured my 3rd daughter’s birth perfectly! You can feel the emotions looking at the photos, she sees moments and little details you might not even notice.
Having all the incredible, one of the lifetime moments, captured FOREVER is the best thing you can do!!!

- Lucie
