Hi, I’m Stella

Portal-keeper + cincinnati photographer

As a Portal-Keeper, I hold space for women experiencing the sacred transitions of life.

By harnessing the healing arts of photography, story medicine, and ancestral wisdom, I guide mothers as we navigate the life-changing portals of birth, loss, and the spaces in between.

I believe in the physiological and spontaneous nature of birth; and I hold space for this transformative journey to unfold. I partner with mothers to experience a freeing birth, while capturing her MotherBaby journey.

What my people say

Valerie // Houston

I am so glad my husband and I chose Stella to shoot my maternity photos. She is a true expert with the camera! The first half of my shoot was in a studio that I rented for only an hour, and Stella did an amazing job of bringing my vision to life in such a short period of time. She is professional, personable, and really listens to what her clients are looking for. I’d absolutely recommend her for any photo shoot that you need!
