Birth & Postpartum Services

Birth Photography + Birth Support

It is important to us that you feel confident and supported heading into your birth. Doula support and birth photography go together like the best duos in history. We have perfected the balanced dance of using both doula services and birth photography to support families in an incredible way. We spend time with you during your pregnancy, getting to know you and all of your hopes for this journey, so we can support and advocate for your family.

Birth Photography

We believe that birth photography is so much more than images; it is a gift. We had all of our own births documented, and we look back at the images all the time. The images we capture are impactful and tell your story, from the smallest details to the biggest moments. Your birth images help you see how powerful you are and can assist in processing your story.

Postpartum Support

Our support doesn’t stop once your baby has arrived. Your birth isn’t just about your baby; it’s about you, too. A mother is born. A family is born. A new baby is born. And all of them need care and nurturing. We have been there too; we know how tender and hazy it can all feel.

We specialize in making snacks, rocking babes, highlighting your proudest moments, pep talks, and holding your hand along the way.

“Bri and Randi at The Nurturing Company have been such a huge part of our transition into parenthood. They’ve helped make such a pivotal time in our lives even more beautiful and meaningful. They’ll have our thanks and love forever.”
Minah B.

I couldn’t have asked for a more responsive and supportive advocate for my first birth. As a first-time mom, Bri helped ease so many of my fears and anxieties about labor and delivery, allowing me to go in feeling confident and prepared. Even though not every part of my labor went according to plan (as is often the case), I still had an incredibly positive experience. I felt supported through every contraction and in every decision I needed to make in the moment. Bri was invited into one of the most sacred and intimate experiences of my life, and she exceeded every expectation. On top of that, the photos she captured were absolutely gorgeous! I'm so grateful she was part of my birth story, and would recommend her to any expecting mom.
Melody H.

“Adding The Nurturing Company to our pregnancy journey was one of the best decisions my husband and I made. Making this investment for our family helped tremendously with the transition to first-time parents, managing a new baby, and a positive postpartum journey. I definitely plan to use them again with our next child.”

“I had Bri and Randi, my doulas, for my first birth last year, and they were absolutely incredible! I rave about them constantly they will definitely be my #1 choice for future pregnancies!”
Caliyah R.

“Very pleased with the decision to have Brianna Trammell as my doula! It was apparent from the beginning how caring and genuine she was. She definitely has a passion and a huge heart for what she does and it was so comforting to have her calm and gentle presence during my long 16 hr labor! As a first time mom I didn’t know what to expect, all I knew was that I wanted a natural labor experience. With Brianna calm demeanor through the tough moments in labor I honestly would have not been able to achieve a natural birth! My husband and I appreciate her so much!”
Sarah V.

“We hired Randi for both photography and doula services. She made us feel comfortable right from the beginning. We had fun during photography sessions and felt supported during birth (even when birth didn’t go as planned) and she continued to check in on us during postpartum recovery, which was so appreciated. And all the pictures turned out beautiful!”
