Kodiak Maternity, Birth & Newborn | Indiana Dunes

As a doula, Joy has witnessed countless births over the years. A few years ago she and her husband, Elijah, adopted a precious baby girl, Aurora, who she helped deliver. Ready to add to their family again, they adopted another… a snowflake baby. It was a journey of faith over fear, but she was able to carry Kodiak full term and have a home birth… like she had always dreamed of! It’s been incredible being a part of this miracle from start to finish (maternity, birth, & newborn)! Photographing this birth was truly a “once in a lifetime” moment as a long-awaited dream was realized.

A miracle is really the only way to describe motherhood and giving birth. It’s unbelievable how God has made us women and babies to endure and be able to do so much. A miracle, indeed.
