Work with me

I spend my days wrangling wildlings, tending to our little homestead, and chasing light with a camera in one hand and a toddler in the other. I live for deep conversations, fresh sweet tea in a mason jar, and curling up with a good book after tucking the kids into bed. I homeschool my children, grow what I can, and believe in living slow and close to the earth.

Motherhood is where it all began for me. Not just the births or the babies, but the becoming. It made me pay attention to the details. The sticky hands. The soft morning snuggles. The weight of a sleepy head on my chest as I carry them to bed. That's when I picked up my camera with fresh eyes. I don't want to just take pictures, but to tell stories.

I dance when food tastes good, make ridiculous facial expressions, and have absolutely been caught singing my heart out at red lights. My husband, Jake is the calm in the chaos and the one who always reminds me that my dreams are worth chasing. Most of our babies were born at home, and I will forever be a believer in choosing the birth space that feels right for you. Birth is sacred.

When I'm not holding space at a birth or behind the camera, you'll probably find me in the garden, elbows deep in the soil, chatting away with the chickens or curled up with a cozy blanket rewatching Harry Potter for the millionth time.

My life isn't perfect, but it's mine. And I wouldn't trade it for anything.

Hi, I'm Savannah.

Mother of nine, birth doula, photographer & unstoppable chatterbox

 No matter your gender, race, beliefs, who you love, or anything else that makes you who you are. I strive to create an inclusive environment for all of my clients. ♡ 

You belong here

Birth is not something to be managed or controlled, but something to be supported and witnessed. You deserve to feel safe, respected, and trusted in your own experience.

Your body is not broken.

These moments are intense, fleeting, and deeply human, and they deserve more than a blurry memory.

Your birth deserves to be documented.

I Believe

This work has given me so much more than photographs.

It has brought me into birth rooms in the middle of the night, placed me beside mothers in some of the hardest and most beautiful hours of their lives, and introduced me to birth workers who have become some of my dearest friends.

These images are little pieces of that life. Me behind the camera, supporting families as a birth photographer and doula, working alongside people I love, and returning home to the parts of my own story that shape the way I serve others.

Birth photography is the work, but the people, the connection, and the privilege of being invited into these moments are the reason I love it.

Do we sound like a perfect match? Learn more about the experience

Birth is full of contradiction. Strength and surrender. Waiting and urgency. Noise, stillness, laughter, fear, relief. It is intensely physical and deeply emotional, often all at once.

I am drawn to the way a birth story holds an entire world within a single day. The people who stood beside you. The choices you made. The moments that tested your courage and resolve. The first time you heard your baby, touched them, or looked into a face you had spent months imagining.

To preserve something so brief and make it tangible feels like an extraordinary privilege. These photographs become proof of where your family began. They become part of the way your children understand their own story, and part of the way you remember who you were in that exact moment.

Telling your story through art is something I’ll never tire of.
