[REBROADCAST] Hiring A Birth Photographer with Tavia Redburn

Hey there! I’m on vacation this week and spending some time with my family so enjoy this rebroadcast episode of the podcast with birth photographer Tavia Redburn. I used to think that birth photography was a bit of a luxury, but the more I learned about it the more I started to think that all parents should consider whether they'd like to have a photographer present for their birth. To talk about all things birth photography, we're joined by the wonderful Tavia Redburn. Tavia is a birth & newborn photographer in Oklahoma, and she also trains other new birth photographers.  Tavia and I talk about her journey to birth photography, how her own births affect her approach to her work, and what you should ask a photographer before you hire them. She also talks about why new parents should consider hiring a photographer for their first birth, rather than wishing they had later.  We also digress a bit and talk about some of the things Tavia has seen during the many labors and births she has been present at. She shares her own story and why it's so important to advocate for yourself at every point in your pregnancy and birth journey.  In this Episode, You’ll Learn About: How and why Tavia became a birth & newborn photographer  Why it's important to be clear about your expectations and wishes before your birth What the hiring process for a birth photographer is like Questions to ask a birth photographer before you hire them Some of the things Tavia has witnessed in her role as a fly on the wall during many labors and births Why you should consider hiring a birth photographer for your first birth Full website notes: drnicolerankins.com/episode59 Check out The Birth Preparation Course Register for the class How to Create a Birth Plan the Right Way Take a quick, fun labor pain quiz Our Sponsors: * Check out Mochi Health at joinmochi.com and use my code DRNICOLE to get $40 Off! * Get 25% off your first month of Ritual's Fertility Support for a limited time at ritual.com/DRNICOLE!
