Long labors and fast ones, quiet moments and intense ones, planned births and unplanned turns, homebirths, birth center births, and hospital births - your experience matters, regardless of how it unfolds. Labor is consuming, and you are focused on moving through each wave, each decision, each moment. Later, details blur and time collapses, leaving behind fragments and secondhand stories. Birth photography gives you something solid to return to, giving you back those moments so you can see what you felt even when you couldn’t fully take it in at the time.
As an Ocala birth photographer and doula, I provide continuous, calm support throughout labor and delivery while documenting your birth story in a documentary, unobtrusive way. I am there to support you physically and emotionally as a doula and to photograph your birth as it happens, without posing, staging, or interference. My work centers on presence, respect, and capturing the truth of your experience.
If you’re looking for inclusive birth photography and doula support that honors your experience from start to finish, you’re in the right place.
this is your story
The quiet routines and small connections that don’t feel important until they’re gone. Motherhood moves quickly, and memory edits more than we expect.
What’s left is often a feeling, not the details.
Your baby warm and heavy on your chest, the littleness you wish you could just bottle up. Delicious toddler curls and soft ringlets bouncing as they dance. Childhood laughter as you play, loud and unrestrained, filling the air around you. These images hold the parts of this season long after the moment passes.
The magic is in the mundane.
As an Ocala storytelling photographer, I document motherhood, families, and early childhood in a natural, unobtrusive way. These sessions are slow, connection-focused, and led by your family rather than a shot list. I focus on presence, comfort, and capturing your story as it unfolds in your home or on location.
If you’re looking for storytelling photography that honors real connection and preserves this season with care, you’re in the right place.
I know I’ve said it several times, but I can not ever thank you enough. I physically can’t hold back tears when I think about everything you helped me through, and hell, even my husband.
The dedication this woman has…. Showing up for the false alarms without any complaints, checking in on me every chance you could, buying me a coffee just because I was having a bad day…. Physically shaking my bare booty enough to make me push this chunky girl out in one push! Save every penny, sell a kidney, idc how you get the money, SHE IS WORTH EVERY DIME!
She made me feel loved, and taken care of my whole labor and even post-partum as I was processing my experience. Getting back the photos of my son's birth was breathtaking and emotion in the most amazing way. This is the kind of care I would imagine getting from a close family member, or a village style community. She is truly a woman who serves others with her whole heart. Any mom who has the opportunity to be supported by Savannah is extremely blessed.
She has shown me what it's like to have a photographer who truly cares about you, what you want, and your vision. I welcomed Savannah into my birth space when I had my last child. It was an extremely emotional time and Savannah was there for me, holding my hand, taking pictures, helping me manage the pain and when it didn't go my way, Savannah supported me in my feeling of the heartbreak that I had from not having the birth that I dreamt of. I'm so grateful to have had Savannah there.
