The birth of my own child in 2015 ignited a deep interest in the world of birth and birth photography. It happened almost immediately. I have always loved photography, however, I got into birth photography, specifically, because when it was time to have my baby, I couldn't find anyone who covered that sort of life event. I knew in my heart that I would be missing out on documenting a true gem of a life-changing moment, and it made me terribly sad. While my mom did bring along her camera, and while she was able to take all of ten pictures before finally succumbing to her supportive role throughout my labor, ultimately, I never got any professional photos. Until this day, these ten pictures happen to be some of my most treasured photos. They will always hold a very special place in my heart, and I often look at them very fondly because they truly represent the day my life has forever changed. It sounds cliche but it's really true. I didn't want anyone who felt the way I felt about wanting to document the birth of their babies to continue feeling this way, and so I ventured into this world, Lana Photographs was born, and I have never looked back.
In 2019, I decided to strengthen my love for birth by completing a birth doula training with DONA International. This experience was nothing short of amazing, and I have had the pleasure, and honor, of supporting multiple families since then.
