"Whenever and however you decide to give birth, your experience will impact your emotions, your mind, your body, and your spirit for the rest of your life."

Why hire a birth photographer?

It's a story worth telling

Birth is arguably the most dramatic and singularly significant event in the life of a woman. Yet, the documentation of this major life event is often left out. LJ+CO Photography celebrates mothers and birth through images that tell the story of your strength and fortitude of bringing life into this world and the start of a precious and unique life. Birth Photography is a tangible way to process your birth story and to pass it down to your child, allowing them to share in a vital part of their own beginning.

And I'm here to help you tell your birth story

Hi, I'm Lisa

I'm mama to three kiddos whose births changed my world, and entire perspective on life, each time. I'm done having babies of my own, but am not ready to leave behind the magic of birth. Photography is my offering to this sacred space. I believe that photography can change the way society sees birth and it can change the way you see yourself, as a woman and as a mother, giving birth. As your birth photographer, I am a silent observer--quietly and unobtrusively witnessing your birth through my camera lens.
