I'm Justine,

Documenting love at first sight

As a mama of 7, preserving memories of children is important to me. The moment you meet that little human only happens once and it deserves to be remembered and retold. But even more than the memories, even deeper than having beautiful photos, my desire is to help you see how truly amazing you are. Through these images and film I want to show the world that women are strong! Birth is powerful and transformational and women have been courageous enough all through history to go through and live to tell the tale to the next generation. Somewhere along the lines we seemed to have forgotten that strength and have replaced courage with fear. I hope these images can inspire and encourage us all to remember we were made for this! This is my purpose and my why behind what I do. If this excites you then we are going to be a great fit!!

The amazing moments of birth can never be recreated. Its an event that will change you for the rest of your life. I can see you now, snuggled up with your little ones as you look through your album retelling the story of the day they were born. We all want to know about our beginning and as mothers we want to remember the day we gathered all our strength and pushed with all the love we have to bring our child into our arms.

Photos and films bring you right back to those wonderful intense moments so you never forget what it took as you birthed your child. Photos give you those special moments in time, hitting the pause button to be able to see with new eyes the way your husband looked at you or the strength in your hands as you braced for another wave. And films fill in all the in between moments allowing you to slow down and observe all the movement, energy, and love. You get to hear the sweet cry again and exhale when all the work of labor is finally over. Film is such a powerful way to remember your amazing feat and will be such special gift to your child when they are older.

I love Jesus. My bearded husband makes me laugh all.the.time!
I have 7 crazy amazing kids, yes my hands are full but I like to say they are full of the best kind of blessings!
I homeschool, homebirth, bake bread, sew, brew kombucha, and go barefoot whenever I can... I'm kind of a hippie.
I LOVE being outside; hiking, camping, kayaking, and hanging out feeding bugs to my chickens.
I am awkward at small talk but LOVE deep conversations! I research EVERYTHING! I use way too many exclamation points!! And dark chocolate is my weakness!
I have been obsessed with birth since I was very young; ask anyone who knows me, birth is my favorite thing to talk about. I am slowly becoming a traditional midwife. In the meantime, I am busy raising my crew and making art from your birth and family's story!

My doula recommended Justine to me and as soon as I viewed her website and talked to her on the phone I knew she had to be at my birth. I felt comfortable with Justine before I even met her just from our conversation over the phone. Not only was she amazing and friendly throughout my pregnancy, she was AMAZING at my birth. She knows just what to do and where to be. We are so pleased with all the photos and emotions she captured of our birth! Justine has some major talent! Aside from being a photographer, I was so happy she was a part of my birthing team. My baby was big and having some blood sugar/breathing issues and needed some donor milk and Justine stepped in and was such a huge help! We are so grateful for her and all of her help! If you are considering hiring Justine to be your photographer, look no further! hire her!
