We are Ventura Birth Photography, a full service photography team offering birth photography to clients in Ventura County, Ojai, Santa Barbara and beyond. Whether you are giving birth at home, a birthing center, or the hospital, we will be there to capture your experience in beautiful imagery. 


We also love photographing life with your newborn, whether it be an in-home Newborn Session or a First 48 (done at the place you have given birth within 48 hours of baby’s arrival), or a collection of Milestone sessions capturing all the details of life with your little one at 3, 6, 9 or 12 months. Maternity sessions are also available to document that very special time before baby arrives.  


 
 

Moments that Matter


Experienced birth and family photographers Loren Haar and Emily Storz are ready to capture the love, strength, and emotions of the moments that make up your family's Birth Story.

We believe in documenting birth in all its forms, supporting birthing women and their families, and providing families with tangible and visual reminders of their unforgettable birth experience.


Your Birth Story = SO worth documenting!

“Documentary style has real value in the sense that it tells a story—which is amazing for the arrival of a new child. The hundreds of images bring me back to the moment and almost to the exact experience each time I look at them. We now have amazing photos as forever memories of that perfect experience.” —Lexi
