About me

Hi, I’m Terri—a full-spectrum doula, photographer, wife, and mom of three. For over 25 years, I’ve walked alongside families as a social worker, and for the past 20 years, I’ve had the honor of documenting life’s most meaningful moments through photography. Supporting families has always been at the heart of who I am, and becoming a doula felt like a natural extension of that calling. I believe birth and the journey into parenthood are sacred, transformative experiences. My role is to offer calm, steady support—emotionally, physically, and informationally—so families feel seen, heard, and confident in their choices. Whether I’m holding space during labor or preserving those first fleeting moments, I’m here to walk beside you with compassion, strength, and care.

Service introduction

I offer a unique blend of full-spectrum doula support and heartfelt, lifestyle photography—created to walk with you through some of life’s most meaningful beginnings. This work is deeply personal to me. With over 25 years as a social worker and 20 years behind the camera, I’ve always been drawn to supporting families and preserving the moments that matter most. Becoming a doula felt like a natural extension of that calling—allowing me to not only witness these seasons, but to gently support you within them. As your doula, I provide emotional, physical, and informational support throughout pregnancy, labor, and the early postpartum period. This can look like prenatal visits, ongoing communication, guidance as you prepare for birth, and steady, calming presence during labor. I support you and your partner—never replacing, but strengthening your connection and confidence as a team. My role is non-medical, centered on helping you feel informed, respected, and empowered in your choices. Alongside that support, I offer lifestyle photography that captures your story as it naturally unfolds. From maternity to birth, Fresh 48, newborn, and beyond, my approach is relaxed and connection-focused. I’m drawn to the quiet in-between moments—the way your hands find each other, the softness of a new baby in your arms, the real, honest beauty of your family just as you are. For families who choose both services, there is a seamless, deeply connected experience—where support and storytelling come together. I understand the rhythm of birth spaces, the tenderness of early postpartum, and the importance of being both present and unobtrusive. Whether you’re looking for doula care, photography, or a combination of both, my heart is to meet you where you are and walk beside you with calm, compassion, and care. You don’t have to do this alone—I’m here to support you every step of the way.
