About Kismet | Doula & Photography
Kismet is an indie doula, education, and photography practice. I work with people & families across a spectrum of needs and experiences, including LGBTQIA people and families, and those with diverse kinship models. I develop innovative models that go beyond traditional birth preparation and attendance by integrating a self care practice, body literacy & agency education, emphasizing collective care and community building, transition rituals & ceremony rooted in their own culture and heritage, and preparing for postpartum and parenthood regarding caretaking & parenting, as well as sex & intimacy.
I photograph birth, family, and pregnancy in narrative portraiture style, specializing in long form, in-home settings, and have published editorial essays on the Substack Made of Velvet
