hi i’m martha,
Birth photography for me requires unwavering dedication and a passion to support mothers in transformation. I am ready to be by your side at any hour of the night and whenever I get the call. I use my years of experience to move gracefully around the space, capturing the most beautiful, raw, and storytelling moments.
Because I don’t want you to miss any part of your experience and story.
I cannot begin to say how thankful I am to Martha!! Not only were her photos breathtaking, but Martha herself was incredible. The care and respect she gave us was over and above anything we could have expected!
Her presence in the delivery was calm and supportive, while still giving us the space to soak up the moment as a family. And her ability to capture each moment was amazing, the photos we received encapsulated every ounce of emotion we felt on the day! Martha you are a talented photographer, and a beautiful soul. Thank you for everything.
FAQS
As an experienced, professional birth photographer I know how to preserve the sacredness of your birth space while capturing all the important details.
I have spent many years learning how to shoot in challenging lighting situations and my equipment is specifically designed to handle these conditions. Hiring me to capture these moments for you allows everyone else in the room to be fully present with you, without the added pressure of juggling a camera whilst supporting you.
I go on call at 37 weeks until baby arrives.
Birth is unpredictable and yes, sometimes babies decide to surprise us with an early arrival! If you go into labour before the on-call period, I will do everything in my power to attend your birth. Most of the time this isn’t an issue but in the rare event that I’m unable to make it, I can send another amazing birth photographer as my backup. They will document your birth and then I’ll edit the photos so you’ll still receive images that reflect my style.
I have three Birth Story Collections available and all of them include: An in-person consultation prior to booking so that you can make sure I’m the right fit for your birth team. A complimentary 60-minute maternity session. 24/7 on-call service from 37 weeks until birth. Entire photographic coverage from active labour until 2-3 hours postpartum.
Birth Story Collections start from $2250.
For more information on collections and availability please get in touch, I would love to capture this sacred time for you!
Nope! I document all types of birth
- at home with a private practising midwife or unassisted, in hospital, and at birth centres.
I never share any images without permission first,
and I always respect your wishes when it comes to your privacy. In saying this, sharing images of birth helps remove the fear that is so often associated with birth and can even empower others who are on a similar journey. I would love for you to be part of this movement in changing how the world views birth! When you receive your gallery you have the option to choose which images you’re comfortable to share, and which you may want to keep private. If you don’t want to share any of your images, that is totally fine too.
I am lucky enough to call the beautiful hinterland town of Eumundi my home.
I cover the entire Sunshine Coast region,
including the northern end as far as Gympie, and also travel to the southern end as far as Caboolture and North Brisbane.
