Forrest Theodore's Birth Story

February 21, 2019/ Leah Conti

THIS IS A BIRTH STORY. IF DETAILS ABOUT HOW A BABY IS BORN IS TOO MUCH FOR YOU, THIS ISN’T THE POST FOR YOU TO READ.

Birth is the most humbling process. It is solely dependent on your body, but otherwise completely out of your control. You cannot plan for it, schedule it, foresee its’ timing. Its a secret your body and baby keep from you until the moment its time for you to know.

Well hello, friend.

I am Leah. An adventurous soul in a homebody. My husband, Patrick, and I live in Eswatini (a tiny country in Southern Africa) with our two little boys, but I travel back to good ol’ south Louisiana each Fall to photograph families and weddings!

I photograph families and weddings just as they are, because that is enough. I love to capture warm, joyful, and comfortable images and look forward to the chance to photograph you and your people!

I spend most my time figuring out how to cheer people on in the good work they are up to with the Good News. As much as I love to adventure, I deeply love being cozy at HOME. You can usually find me making delicious things happen in the kitchen to gather people around our table. I believe REAL food is the tastiest.

Here you will find images I have taken, words I share + maybe a few favorite recipes. Thanks for stopping by!
