Meet our Photo Time Expert and Birth Professional-Love Alda

I came across one of Alda’s photos on Facebook of a baby taking his first breath and without a doubt I knew that she had to capture our first born’s birth. I had never heard of birth photography and had some reservations about letting a stranger photograph such a private moment. Looking back it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. Alda was extremely professional and so kind and caring. She perfectly captured every special moment of Marguerite’s birth and even caught a sound clip of her very first cry (wow!). What a privilege to be able to go back in time and relive that incredible day.

Alda’s passion and commitment to this field is contagious. Enjoy this special treat as Alda leads us on a journey of discovery through the next few months.

Love

Jeanelde
