About Me
Supportive, grounded, and here for you
Rooted in Holding Space
I am a doula and photographer who walks with you at the threshold where life begins- steadily, gently and with deep respect for the sacredness of birth. My work is rooted in presence, trust, and the quiet power of holding space. Before I was called to birth work, I held space for grief and death, learning the language of deep listening and stillness.
With a background in both analogue and digital photography, I bring a storyteller’s eye to the tender moments surrounding birth and pregnancy- capturing what is often felt more than seen.
I trained as a birth doula through Förlossningsgruppen in Gothenburg, and I offer grounded, intuitive and deeply personal support through each stage of the journey.
Whether I’m by your side during labor or behind the lens during pregnancy, I am here to hold space for what’s real, raw and beautiful.
With reverence and rhythm, I hold space for your becoming
From my own becoming
I’m also a mother- and becoming one reshaped me in ways I’m still discovering. It deepened my understanding of birth, of vulnerability and of the strenght it takes to bring new life into this world.
I know what it means to be held, and to long for holding. That is part of why I do this work- to give what I felt I was missing.
Mission & Vision
Mission
My mission is to hold space for the profound transitions of life—birth, death, and everything in between—through both care and creativity. As a doula, I support birthing people with presence, knowledge, and compassion. As a photographer, I document moments of vulnerability and transformation with intimacy and reverence. My work centers around honoring the body, memory, and emotion, providing support and storytelling that is grounded, tender, and true.
Vision
I envision a world where care work and creative work are deeply intertwined—where every threshold in life is met with support, beauty, and dignity. Through my practice, I aim to challenge silence around grief, celebrate the sacredness of life-giving bodies, and build spaces where people feel seen, held, and remembered. Whether through birth support or photographic portraiture, I seek to nurture a culture of care, connection, and embodied presence.
F.A.Q
Do you offer doula services and photography together or separately?
Yes. You can book me for either birth support, photography, or a combination of both. For those who want both, I offer packages that weave support and documentation in a gentle, respectful way. I never photograph without first prioritizing presence and care.
Do you work with LGBTQIA+ families, single parents, or chosen families?
Absolutely. My practice is queer-affirming, body-liberating, and inclusive of all family constellations. Everyone deserves care and documentation that reflects their truth and power.
What languages do you speak?
I speak Swedish and English fluently.
How do I book a session or consultation?
You can contact me through the Contact page or email me directly at [email protected]. I offer a free initial call to see if we’re a good fit and to answer any questions you may have.
