Hi! I'm Shayna, and I'm so glad you are here! 

I'm a stay-at-home twin boy mom, and yes...twin boys are crazy.  If you adore your kids, and you can also ADMIT how hard parenting is and laugh and cry at the hard parts, you are my kind of people. We are going to get along great. 

I have experience photographing natural births, epidural births, surrogate births, and c-section births. Every birth is a beautiful mess, and YOU are incredibly strong. YOU GOT THIS!! 

Hope to see you soon!

Shayna Cox

If you are a sentimental soul who values memorializing the beauty in life's moments, you are in the right place. The story of a child coming into the world, however it unfolds, is life-changing. I'm here to help you see and preserve the beauty in it, and to keep it forever, for yourself and for your future generations.  These pictures will only become more valuable with time! 

welcome

"Shayna captured our birth photos for our surrogacy journey and didn't miss a single detail.  She checked in frequently before birth, gave wonderful advice, and was consistent with her care.  For us, this was a huge plus as her job was to capture photos, not care about us, but she managed to do both.  I would rate her a 10/10 and HIGHLY recommend her" -Dominique Banuelos

If you want a more intimate birth experience by having fewer people in the room, and you can't decide between hiring a doula or a photographer,  I can act as both!  It's a win-win for everyone! 

Step 1:


Shoot me a message with your due date and type of session your are looking for, and I'll send you a link to sign your contract and pay your retainer. Easy peasy. 

Step 2:

I'll send you a questionnaire to get to know you better, and if you are booking a birth session, we will chat either on zoom or in person and discuss birth details and preparation.

Step 3:

Once your session date rolls around, you will be thoroughly prepared and we will make some AMAZING photos!
