Birth and family photography and videography

raven ivory | photograpy & films

I am the mama of two tiny humans, and was raised by a midwife and a brick mason-- the combination of such professions shaped nearly my entire being. I have a deep reverence for the power of our bodies and a great love for things made by hand. My dad passed in October 2011 and losing him really influenced how I approach documenting families. Parents hire me, thinking I will be making photos for them, but in my heart, I am preserving these memories for their children. I want, so many years in the future, those kids, well and grown, to have a stack of albums to page through, to trace the lines of their parent's faces, to be reminded of the feel of their hands, to laugh at the adventures, to soak in the love.

I love the little moments we often miss because of the speed with which time flies by. I love photography because it provides a meager means of time travel. It allows me to document the fleeting space between breaths. Too often, we are apologetic for messes and shortcomings that we all share. And while we strive for perfection, our families are growing and interacting with us in real and beautiful ways. The mess is the beauty -- sticky, dish-filled, tantrum-thrown, everyday extraordinary.

The Family Development Center

The Family Development Center has a particular focus and expertise in helping people and families cope with pregnancy and post-partum related issues. We support clients struggling to get pregnant, experiencing worry and anxiety during pregnancy, recovering from a traumatic birth, mourning the loss of a pregnancy or child, facing post-partum depression and anxiety, or adjusting to the pressures of a growing family.

Many people experience some mild mood changes during or after the birth of a child. However some people develop more significant symptoms. Please know that with help you can prevent a worsening of these symptoms and can fully recover. Symptoms can appear any time during pregnancy and in the first year after childbirth. Although the term “postpartum depression” is the term used most often to describe these symptoms, there are actually several forms of illness that people may experience.

It brings me great joy and excitement to follow my heart’s calling to serve those traveling their hero’s journey of parenthood. I received this calling after having emerged from my own challenging entrance into this new unknown realm.

I offer a holistic, heart-centered and mindful approach to offering care and my utmost intentions are to listen, hold space and offer loving guidance, wherever you may be on your own intimate journey. I truly believe that we each hold the wisdom within to our deepest desires when we connect with our truth and inner knowing.
