In the realm of birth and community, we firmly believe in the transformative power of visual storytelling. Birth imagery has the unique ability to assist families in processing, healing, and joyously commemorating their individual narratives. For close to a decade, Birth Becomes You has played a pivotal role in supporting both emerging and seasoned birth photographers worldwide, enabling them to flourish both professionally and artistically. Certification stands as a testament to a photographer’s commitment to embodying professionalism, ethical standards, and exceptional skills within the dynamic field of birth photography. It is a profound honor to be acknowledged in this manner, and we are thrilled to showcase the talented birth photographers who have recently completed our Essence of Birth Cohorts.

Caty Jolley, one of our featured photographers, shares her sentiment: “I wanted to make sure families who are in the blur of labor, or whatever type of birth they are experiencing, that they can come home, recover, and have these images they can cherish for the rest of their lives. Thank you SO much for the incredible opportunity, I’ve learned a lot and I’m signed up for the videography course – onward and upward!”
