<H1> I am very thankful to be able to hire a Doula especially at the time of the pandemic. To have support in-person and someone who truly wanted me to have an exceptional birth experience was phenomenal. At first I was a little nervous about hiring a doula because I wasn’t sure what to expect. Heather was very clear about what her services would provide but as a first time mother I didn’t know what to expect in regards to the birth journey overall. As Heather and I progressed through my pregnancy it really made me appreciate the support that she was able to lend me. The thing I would suggest for all clients is that they have to make sure that they stay communicative as much is their Doula is! </H1> |
<H1> "Heather’s greatest strengths as a Doula is her compassion for her clients and love for the journey that they are taking and how she can assist in that. </H1> |
<H1> NATAVIA </H1> |
<H1> We’re so [fucking] grateful to have had Heather as our doula. She has a truly comforting, calmingpresence which my husband and I sensed the first time we met her at our interview. It was just theenergy I needed during the birth of my first baby. Heather took great care in getting to know us and ourconcerns before birth so that she could provide us the best, tailored care, which I really appreciated. Shewent out of her way to find specialized resources for my concerns (breastfeeding after reductionsurgery, as well as having anxiety about labor and birth) and provided me with information I didn’t knowI wanted which helped me mentally prepare for the road ahead. </H1> |

<H1> I loved her calm demeanor and willingness to change as we go, be fluid/go with the flow in general. She was always ready to remind me of my plan but was able to be flexible to any changes I wanted to make and provided me with facts and emotional support. </H1> |

<H1> CHRISTINA </H1> |
<H1> Heather was such a calm and reassuring presence during labor and afterwards. She had a very soft touch and struck a perfect balance of being ready and present but also allowing us space. Her knowledge of breastfeeding and her willingness to make herself available to us was amazing, really putting my mind at ease. </H1> |

<H1> Heather anticipated our needs and followed her intuition to create a peaceful and calm birthing space and postpartum environment. We all got into a rhythm with one another, which was so special and which was exactly what we had hoped would happen. </H1> |

<H1> AMY </H1> |
<H1> I am grateful to you for those 12+ hours you have so steadily spent with us. I can't even imagine what kind of work it is, what effort it cost you... How, having small children, you manage to combine it with such difficult work. I always mentally return to that day of my birth, when you were like a shadow, when you were invisible, but incredibly important for the process that day.I am grateful to you for that day, for being my doula too, for replacing my husband with a massage of my back, which is incredibly valuable. I am grateful to fate for meeting you. Your pictures still make me cry and with joy and happiness remember the birth day. Especially because it became difficult for me, didn’t go according to plan and made me upset .. But I look at your photos and understand that you gave me support to remember only the most beautiful of that night. </H1> |

<H1> Heather quietly arrived at my house while I was in the throes of labor. I’m not quite sure how she did it but she managed to take amazing photos without ever having to adjust the space I was laboring in or make any noise (her camera has a silent button!). I hardly knew she was there at all. She then came to the hospital I delivered at and took photos of my daughter being born. Again, I didn’t even know she was there until after the birth. She is so skilled at being very much in the background of what’s going on and not disrupting the birth environment yet the images she captures feel so connected and personal. She truly has a gift. I’m so grateful she was there to capture the look on our faces at the exact moment my partner and I met our baby. I look at the photos she took every day and am overcome with emotion." </H1> |

<H1> As time grew closer, I realized that I needed a photographer to document this birth. This was going to be a very special event for me and I decided that I wanted photographs that were REAL. Photographs that showed the good, the bad, the ugly, the pain, the joy-everything and that is exactly why I chose Heather. Heather's photos show real life and that is exactly what she did for me. She captured everything! When I look back at the photos of Audrey's birth I feel like I'm there all over again in every moment and my heart swells and my tears flow. She has given me a priceless gift-the gift of memories that I will be able to revisit over and over again." </H1> |
<H1> "When I got pregnant with our fifth baby, I knew she was going to be our last. After two cesareans and two hospital VBAC's, I was determined to give birth to my last baby at home with my family, midwives, and doula. </H1> |
<H1> Rianne </H1> |
<H1> Heather is such a pleasure to work with! As a doula, I have had the opportunity to work with Heather at multiple births. She has a calming presence and is aware of the birth space. She moves through the space in a way that protects the process of birth. She is quiet and her camera is silent. You don't even notice she is there most of the time. Her photography is incredible and she is quick to have everything edited and back to you. Her photography is a work of art and she is great at capturing those moments that are gone with the blink of an eye. I highly recommend using Heather as your photographer. You won't regret it!" </H1> |

<H1> Heather has been an incredibly supportive friend and mentor to me. I met her a few years ago while taking one of her classes, and can attest to her dedication as an educator, teacher, and guide. She is thoughtful, inquisitive, attentive, and truly interested in what you have to say. She cares immensely about her friends and colleagues and is the first one to ask, How do YOU feel? What can I do to support you? Heather is an excellent listener, surprising me by recounting details I briefly shared with her, or following up on past conversations just to check in. She is a natural leader, a charismatic speaker, and anyone who has the opportunity to work with Heather benefits greatly. She pours her heart and soul into everything she does and I feel so lucky to call her my friend." </H1> |

<H3> My care is much broader than that.
I support a pregnant person no matter the outcome of their pregnancy (chosen or not). So, yes, there will be plenty of hip squeezes during labor from me. But, I also support people through miscarriage, abortion, adoptions, infertility, stillbirth, NICU time, and postpartum. Pregnancy has a full range of outcomes, and I’m here no matter what that looks like for you. </H3> |
