A baby girl!

I was called in Sunday the 21st to back up another doula, so I was able to attend C & J's birth in Dallas. I arrived at the hospital at 7:25pm and their baby girl was birthed at 10:34pm. C was an amazing woman to watch during labor. She handled everything perfectly and she was a first time mom! Congratulations C & J...your baby E is absolutely gorgeous!

Expanding My Business!

I am expanding my doula business to include birth and newborn photography. I have had success with taking pictures while my doula clients were in labor, but it is much harder when you are trying to doula and take pics.

Since I am building my portfolio, I am looking for up to 3 photography only clients between December and March 2009 for a reduced fee of $100. This includes a driving radius of 35 miles from Denton.

The newborn client (1) will receive a fully edited cd of pictures and a release for them to print where ever they choose. The newborn session will take place in their home and will be between 2 -4 hours. This length of time accommodates breastfeeding, diaper changes and napping.

For birth photography clients (2), they will receive the cd, release and a slideshow dvd set to music of my choice. I will join them in active labor at their desired birth place.

Please feel free to contact me at mary@embracebirth.com for more information or you are more than welcome to pass this information along to your friends.
