“Linnell was so supportive and nurturing and provided information, resources, and reassurances before, during, and after the delivery. My labor went fast but she got there quickly and made sure I got taken care of. Her caring and compassionate nature shows through her photography as well. She spent hours with our family making sure we had the support we needed and also capturing the sweet first moments of our newborn and family of four.”

"Linnell is an amazing person and a top-notch photographer that does excellent work. She has captured my son’s newborn moments, his six months, first year, and the holidays, and every time we see her work, we are amazed by the details she captures. She is so thoughtful, remembering details of our lives, and incorporating them into her work,
I would highly recommend working with Linnell, and I can’t wait to have her continue to photograph my son as he gets older.
Linnell, you are an absolute rock star, and I am so happy to have found you!"

"Linnell worked with us as an overnight postpartum doula. We really appreciated the car Linnell took in learning our specific ways of doing things, from cloth diapering to making sure she knew our bottling setup. We always appreciated the way Linnell listened to what we were looking for - she has a lot of knowledge but she made sure it fit into what we wanted versus having a set idea of what we should do. Linnell is affable and easy to talk to, which was super helpful for sleep-deprived parents. Last but not least, punctual caregivers can be hard to find, and Linnell was always on time and ready to go!"

"Linnell was great! Helped us so much in the transition to become new parents, from advice, to tips on calming the baby, and helping us sleep between feeding stretches. She helped us triple feed and follow the pediatrician’s orders. She was also awesome about remembering any adjustments or requests we had! Checked in on both my mental health and also my partner’s, which was very nice especially in the immediate postpartum period. She kept a running list of my baby’s activities during the night – from wake periods, poops/pees, and how much he would take from the bottle. She was great about offering advice and letting us make the decisions. Overall, a very sweet, calming, and accommodating doula. She really tries to go above and beyond to make sure the whole family feels taken care of (including my pup)!"

"We have had the pleasure of working with Linnell three times and would highly recommend her. Doing photography with a baby requires a lot of planning on your feet and Linnell was great at providing options for poses, locations, and other options when we needed to. She is friendly and professional, and thanks to her skill and keen eye, we have gorgeous photography to treasure forever. "

I have worked many photographers, and I can easily say Linnell stands out. Not only are her photos beautiful, she made the whole experience relaxing and joyful, which is hard to do with a toddler and a newborn. she made sure to ask me what outfits and poses i liked.I never felt rushed or stressed when my baby fussed. She was such a calming person, which is important postpartum. Whether you are looking for posed photos or candid ones, this is the photographer for you! Thank you so much again Linnell for a beautiful experience.

"Linnell is a great doula! We used her for the first few weeks after our second came home as well as invited her on a family trip. She came over and supported us during the baby's witching hour to allow us time to give our undivided attention to our oldest as we transitioned to a family of four. Those first few weeks were hard on her and being able to have bedtime with both parents was priceless. She also helped with overnight feedings and sleep to allow me and my husband some much needed rest. On our family trip, she spent 24/7 with us for 4 days. She helped us with everything. I trusted her which allowed us to enjoy our vacation 100%. She has so much knowledge from prior experience and school that she shares when needed but also listens without judgment to what choices we as parents want for our baby. she is respectful, empathetic, caring, and patient. I would recommend her services to anyone!"
