I am a Washington-state licensed Midwife & Functional Medicine Practitioner - I own a private practice and have caught nearly 400 babies in the 11 years I've been in birth work. I am also an artist and photographer, working exclusively with fine art analog film photography. I offer doula and photography services for labor and birth, as well as family photography. I choose analog photography (film) because it plays an active role in the creative process. Film mirrors the unpredictability of life, the alchemy of memory, the way light and shadow, blur and texture converge to shape an experience. My approach to analog photography, much like my work as a doula, is not about precision or control. I allow the physical medium to guide what can be seen and felt. Film has the power to interpret for us, impressionistic art. In addition to birth work, I also offer family photography and work with those in the intimate, often liminal process of making a baby.

Post a testimonial for Rae P. Jimenez, LM CPM

I truly cannot recommend Rae enough! She was my doula, midwife, and birth photographer for all three of my births, and I honestly can't imagine going through those experiences with anyone else.
Rae wears many hats, and her experience as a midwife allowed her to provide an exceptional level of care as my doula. From the very beginning, she made me feel supported, informed, and genuinely cared for. Her calm presence, incredible knowledge, and unwavering encouragement gave me confidence through every stage of pregnancy, labor, birth, and postpartum. She always knew exactly when to offer guidance and no question was too small. She advocated when needed and provided a reassuring presence in the birth space. She made even the most challenging moments feel manageable. Beyond labor and delivery, she also provided thoughtful prenatal care and postpartum check-ins. I am beyond thankful for the support Rae provided.
As a photographer, Rae beautifully captured the raw, emotional, and fleeting moments of each birth. Those photos are among my most treasured possessions, and I know I'll cherish them for years to come. She not only documented each birth but also supported our family every time it grew, making each experience even more meaningful.
If you're looking for someone who will wholeheartedly support you, provide exceptional care, and preserve your birth story with stunning photographs, you won't find anyone better. I am endlessly grateful for everything Rae has done for my family and will cherish the memories she helped create forever.
