this particular competition, gathers professionals from all around the world, submissions have grown since its inception 12 years ago and it has become the pinnacle of recognition for birth photographers. As this genre becomes more and more recognized for its added value, both for the families that choose to have it, as for its role of changing the way we perceive birth, creating awareness and dismistifying miths and fears. Proportionaly to this increasing awareness, the community of artists that document the powerful event that is birth, has also grown, and with that, it has been raising its standards, both creatively and technically. I personally can vouch for that, as I have invested through the years inis continnuos education and gear.

You always knew you wanted a Doula, but you’ve been following a couple of birth photographers on Instagram and now that you are pregnant, you catch yourself crying more often when you see those images for the first moments that you get to finally meet your little one, and you get it, why would someone want to invite a photographer to capture these moments and you want that too.

However, you’re not entirely sure if you budget will stretch this far, and If you want that extra person in the birth room, because your birth partner has been preparing since day one and has now attended more workshops than you. You’ve also just purchase the new iphone 13 pro max and how amazing are the images and videos that can produce, right?
