Jana Woodhouse birth & babies

Hi expecting mamas! I’m Jana, a Melbourne/Gippsland photographer who visually documents the beauty and rawness of birth and the magic of fresh babies earth side.

Birth is amazing. It’s beautiful and empowering and one of the most incredible things that we as humans can do to create life.
I consider it a huge honour to be invited into that sacred, private and intimate space in time. I work unobtrusively and candidly, capturing moments as they happen in a way that tells a birth story through images for a mother to relive, process and cherish.

I believe that having your birth captured can make you feel empowered and when looking back at your images, no matter how you birthed, you can proudly say, “I did that”. You will never regret being able to look back at the very moment your child entered the world.

Own your birth. I am incredibly passionate about birth rights and women educating themselves to make informed choices and decisions that will result in positive outcomes for both mother and their baby.

Based in the outer South-East suburbs of Melbourne, I also service West Gippsland, the Dandenongs and the Peninsula.

I’d love to tell your story.
