Birth Photography
October 1981 – Present
It’s important to me as a doula to emphasize a mother’s right to choose the type of care she wants, during her prenatal and postpartum visits and especially during her labor, I hope by sharing intimate and magical moments of my photography with you, it will give you a glimpse of what I experience in the sacred world of birth.

Free Doula services to women who qualify in the LA area. The Community Based Doula (CBD) provides direct services to pregnant women/teens and their families in low resource and underserved communities. A CBD provides emotional, physical and educational support sensitive to the unique birthing/parenting process of the birth mother and her family during pregnancy, labor & delivery, and the weeks following the birth. The doulas are liaisons to strengthen relationships between primary care providers, families, and community-based organizations by working consistently to develop relationships across disciplines in an effort to enhance parent’s knowledge of their child’s development.
