I did a thing-Fargo Birth Photography
at_fargo_birth_photographer-166.jpg

I did a thing today. You probably didn't notice it, but I added birth photography and birth films back into the world of Northern Stories. If you didn't know, I had a baby (well I had three, but who's counting?). Well, said baby is now a toddler and the new mom fog is lifting and I feel like I can invest more of myself into the wonderful world of birth photography now. I am SO excited to start offering birth films and photos starting today! If you are having a baby in the Fargo-Moorhead area, please feel free to contact me. I'd love to come over, meet you for coffee or just email back and forth with you to hear about your upcoming birth. Oh and to celebrate this special day, I'm offering 10% off any birth photography or birth films booked, until the end of May!

My first birth film- Essentia Hospital | Fargo Birth Photography

Let's revisit my first ever birth film.  My family had just moved back to Minnesota after a short stint in Iowa and I was taking a course through the Define School to reignite my creativity. Out of the blue, I got this crazy idea to post a call on my Facebook page. So I posted something along the lines of " Looking for a couple that would be willing to let me film and take photos of their birth". Within minutes I had a few people contact me, but I knew of Kara and Ryan and I was confident they would be a great fit. Little did I know that they would be such amazing people and watching them work as a team to welcome their daughter would be one of the sweetest moments of my career. Not to mention the amazing care they received from the nurses and midwives at Essentia Hospital. I won't say much else, other than Thank You to Kara and Ryan. It's because of you that I fell head over heals with birth photography and capturing those first breaths of life.
