client love
“Anni is nothing short of AMAZING! They took our birth photos and not only did they turn out beautifully, we ended up with a friend for a lifetime. They are personable, passionate, and incredibly talented! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”
- Alyssa
“I had an amazing birth experience with Elisha…things really turned around once Elisha came to the hospital and helped me labor in different positions. She also was so helpful with the hip and lumbar presses-she has such strong hands and those really made a difference! I credit Elisha with helping me to feel much more empowered in my birth experience [and] I would wholeheartedly recommend Elisha and Sprout and Blossom.”
- Julia
“Anni is warm, receptive, and knowledgable. They makes you feel comfortable and are available for questions throughout your pregnancy journey. Anni brings humor and a passion for empowering parents to their doula and photography practice.”

A pregnancy photoshoot is an invaluable way to preserve life’s fleeting phases as you anticipate the turn of the next chapter; but it’s also so much more than that. A maternity session offers a chance to pause. To reflect. To be present with your body and baby. To capture, one last time, your family as it is now — before crossing the threshold into something entirely new. We are honored to capture this sacred stage of your life.
