I am referring to my doula, Teri Nava-Anderson of HarmonyDoula.com.  Teri helped to transition (no pun intended) me into my current status of mother of two (this time sans epidural) and I could not have done it without her.  Teri is also the mother of two beautiful boys and I was honored to photograph the family of this woman who has come to mean so much to my family.  If you plan to give birth and can budget a doula into your birth plan, I say do it!  I’ve done it both ways and my experience was exponentially more relaxed (is that an oxymoron when referring to one’s labor?).  Thank you for your patience– accepting calls at odd hours and the list goes on… I hope that the four of you enjoy this sneak peek.  There is more to come.  Happy New Year!

PS- Not sure why the images (bear in mind that they’re small jpgs) are just mammoth on here but…
