I am proud to announce a project that is very near and dear to my heart. For those of you that know me, know about our little miracle born in 2019 (shown above) and the story behind him. For those that are new, have never worked with me, or are not personal friends of mine, let me fill you in. We were blessed with our son, Matias - "A gift from God" after 3 years of IVF. 3 Fertility specialists, 3 surgeries, 4 egg retrievals, 12 eggs retrieved, 8 eggs fertilized and made into embryos, over 1000 injections, over 100 ultrasounds, 5 frozen embryo transfers, countless tests, too much blood work to count, 2 failed transfers, 3 miscarriages, over $100,000 in expenses, lots of tears and heartache, and one strong embryo (our RAINBOW BABY). To say I understand, is an understatement. I know all too well the pain...emotionally, physically, and financially.  

1 in 4 pregnancies end in miscarriage, and 1 in 8 couples struggle to conceive a child. That means there is a 100% chance that someone you know may be walking that path right now.  Take that in for a moment. 

If that someone is you, know that you are not alone. After getting to know so many women and families throughout our journey, hearing story after story of heartache and loss, I knew I had to do something to pay tribute to those struggles. This is where the Rainbow Baby Project was born.  

1 Free Maternity and 1 Free Mini Newborn Session 

 1 maternity and 1 newborn session will be gifted to eligible families each month. Newborn sessions must be held within 2 weeks of babies birth in my West Lafayette, Indiana studio. Please allow a minimum of 6 weeks prior to your due date to be considered for maternity and 4 weeks prior for the newborn session. I also accept nominations/applications from friends and family members. I will require a model release/signed contract to share the photos and your story on social media in order to share the hope that comes with a rainbow baby. A $50 non refundable retainer will also be collected at the time of booking. Once the session is finished you will receive this back. 1 offer per family.

up to a 60 min session

 Rainbow Theme set (2 outfits)

Rules

Applications and/or nominations must be received 4 weeks prior to the due date for a newborn session and 6 weeks prior to the due date for a maternity session to be considered. The recipient chosen will not book a session with another photographer. Should you (the chosen recipient) book with another photographer, you will be invoiced for the normal session fee of whichever session you were chosen for. If left unpaid, you will not receive any images that were taken at the session. Please be fair and kind to other applicants and myself. Only apply if you are truly in need of a free session. I really want these to be for those in need that may otherwise not have the opportunity to have professional photos taken of their rainbow baby. A signed contract is required within 3 days of being chosen or session will be given to someone else.
