Haley has been such an incredible part of both of my birth experiences, and I truly cannot imagine going through pregnancy and childbirth without her. She was my doula for my daughter two years ago and did such an amazing job that there was never a question that I wanted her by my side again for my most recent pregnancy and birth.
Throughout my pregnancy, Haley was always available to answer my questions and ease my worries whenever anxiety set in. She showed up for what felt like a million false alarms and patiently supported me through two weeks of prodromal labor. She was there through every uncertain moment without ever making me feel like a burden or inconvenience. She even managed to capture my maternity photos right before a thunderstorm!
When the time finally came to have our baby, things became very intense very quickly. I experienced a tough and incredibly fast labor and delivery, with both babies’ heart rates dropping and complications occurring during the birth. Haley was an amazing source of support throughout everything. After I experienced a postpartum hemorrhage, Haley and her backup doula, Savannah, continued caring not only for me but also for my husband and son while everything was happening.
Her care didn’t stop after delivery. Haley captured beautiful Fresh 48 and hospital sibling photos, provided care for my daughter while I recovered before being discharged, and later took newborn and sibling photos that we will cherish forever. She also recently updated our family photos, with a special focus on capturing how much our family has grown and giving us the opportunity to look back and remember the journey that brought us here.
Haley is so much more than a doula and photographer, she has become such a meaningful part of our family’s story. From supporting me through two pregnancies and births to capturing some of the most important and emotional moments of our lives, she has been there through it all. I will forever be grateful for her compassion, patience, support, and the beautiful memories she has given our family. I truly cannot recommend Haley enough. 💕
