Trusted Harrisburg & Hershey Birth Photographer – Capturing Your Birth Story with Authentic, Timeless Images

Nothing transforms you like becoming a mom will.

You need the pictures. But...

You're overwhelmed

There are so many photographers to choose from, package pricing can be confusing and arbitrary, and if your budget is limited, what is essential?

sticker shock

So many fees! There's the session fee just to get your pictures taken. Then a premium price to get the full digital gallery. And if you want printed products that's more (a LOT more). Unless you get a package, which brings us back to the confusing and arbitrary issue.

I'll just take pics with my phone

You want the heirloom quality, top shelf photos of this singular time in your life but there are so many other more important expenses right now. You'll just get some phone pics. It'll be just as good. Sigh.

It's not that important anyway

Except that having your motherhood journey professionally documented provides an artifact you'll return to over and over again as you process and celebrate the changes in you and your family. You get to pass on this legacy of yourself to your children.

The true, the good, the beautiful...

I'm here to capture it for you. Motherhood is a mysterious journey of transformation. The deepest movements in a woman's heart as she grows from maiden to mother are hidden, invisible, ineffable. As your photographer, I accompany you on this journey as you embody Divine Love itself, and make visible this invisible miracle through my photos.

"Carla...suddenly zapped me into the moment so fiercely that I’ll remember that diaper change...


Years from now when I don’t have butts to wipe and when I miss it, I’ll have that moment to remember, even if it’s not one of the photos that made it into the gallery. Over and over during our two-hour session she reminded me to love the moment; that these ordinary days of the best part of my life are to be treasured as I live them. She reminded me of the beauty in the chaos. She reminded my why I fell in love with my husband. She reminded me to look at my children with new eyes. She shone a light on the long-long day and hit pause on too-short years." --Rachael B., Carlisle
