The final little piece of our not so little puzzle is here. Another beautiful homebirth, surrounded by nothing but our babies, family, love and trust. We are both doing well and are slowly adjusting to to life as a family of seven, one day at a time.
Thank you so much to everyone who has reached out. We are in our little bubble atm. I’ll be back soon❤️

Finally getting around to sharing some of the beautiful moments I had the honour of capturing last year! First up……
•
Babies wait for no one… Little Murphy was born at home with just his parents present, in darkness, on the floor of their shower, surrounded by love. We all missed his grand arrival. The moments after were filled with so much joy and excitement for this family. From everyone arriving to the house to find that he was already here, to his big brothers playing trucks and superhero’s in the centre of their mums postpartum. The tiny details of a very special day, captured forever. Thank you so much and for having me. You are incredible ❤️

✨UPDATE ✨ - Hi guys, sadly my nan has passed away in the last few days. I need to take this week off to be with my family and loved ones during this time. All non urgent work (admin, galleries, emails, enquiries etc) will be on hold until I return. Please bare with me and the slight delays this will cause. All birthing families will still have access to me however I do ask if you need me to please contact me via phone or text NOT email or Instagram as I will NOT be on those platforms for the time being. I have been in contact with those families this will directly impact and have set up alternative arrangements during this time (If I have not yet spoken to you and we have something scheduled this week I will be in contact today) I am aiming to return next Monday however I will let you all know ASAP if this needs to be extended. Thank you for your patience and understanding. All my love, Rianna ❤️

Soo many beautiful births have happened during my little hiatus… so much love, beauty and devotion. Every family I work with truely stays with me as I continue on my journey. Every woman and every baby teaches me something new about this work, the world and our fleeting, precious lives. Being apart of the birth world, you need to be able to let go of parts of you that no longer serve you, grow, reflect and be reborn again and again. Constantly changing and evolving to best support birth, women, babies and families. It. Is. Never. Ending. As is the circle of life ❤️

✨Photography is ART✨

The more time that goes past the more my deep understanding for this line of work evolves… the more I see the brush strokes in a mothers skin, the more I see the canvas in a cluttered room. The more the colours of the rainbow speak to me, the light and the shadows dancing with one another , back and forth. The ebb and flow. The more focus becomes less important and the emotion and connection in a piece becomes the easel holding my creation tall and strong… There is so much more to photography. So much that I did not understand in the beginning. But now I do. This is deep, emotive, meaningful and priceless art. This is what I am called toward… The painting. The memory. The connection. The FEELING. The ART!

A huge thank you to my muses; & and darling Ruby. You are utter perfection ❤️

✨ ITS HERE - The Birth of Benaiah✨

Oh my goodness I’m so excited to be finally sharing this film with you all.
My beautiful friends and welcomed their second baby into the world on the 6th of January. Their second planned home birth but first babe they birthed in their home… They experienced a not so great hospital birth with their daughter after a very last minute change of circumstances but managed to have a beautiful, healing and EMPOWERING Homebirth with their boy. Benaiah was 5.3 kgs! Katelyn was 100% healthy during her pregnancy, did NOT have gestational diabetes and birthed her boy naturally. During delivery it was discovered that baby Ben had ‘Shoulder Dystocia ‘. Though it is technically classed as an emergency, everyone in Katelyn’s birth space stayed calm and supportive. She had an amazing birth team every step of the way (listed below). We wanted to share this story to inspire other mums that big babies are just a variation of normal! That you CAN do it! That homebirths are amazing! That finding your perfect team is so important and that even in the face of an emergency you can still be treated with respect and have your preferences honoured.

Baby Benaiah’s birth is one that will always be with me, being welcomed into his mums sacred birthing space not once but twice now has been an absolute honour! So grateful to have been apart of this monumental day, this incredible team and friends with this beautiful family. Enjoy ❤️

✨The Birth Of Ziggy✨

“With the next surge I went along with my body’s natural urge to push. I reached down and felt the top of my baby’s head. The most incredible feeling! This excitement helped me gain that last bit of strength that I needed to cross the finish line - I was sooo close to meeting my baby now” -

What an honour it was to capture Ziggy’s arrival earthside! This beautiful family had planned their second Homebirth for their third little suprise gendered baby. When I arrived Tammy was was deep within her zone, making her primal noises, slowly her older two boys crept out from their bedroom and joined her and her husband by the pool to meet their new sibling which turned out to be a…. Third little boy!

Homebirths are magic. There truely are no words to describe the energy, the power and the essence that is in that sacred space. Thank you so much to Tammy and Marcelo for allowing me on their special journey and for sharing their story with us all!

*Shortly I’ll be sharing a blog post with Tammy’s hand written birth story from her perspective. It’s just amazing. Keep your eyes peeled*
