Testimonial for Maegan Hall
You never know how much you need a doula until you actually NEED one -- and Maegan is one of the best. Within minutes of her arrival at my home, she ran to the kitchen and grabbed a cool, wet rag to put on my head. I didn't even ask for that. It's like she knew what I needed before I knew that I needed it. I am a first time mom and the experience of naturaly delivery would have been too overwhelming if not for the amazing and timely support Maegan gave --- not only in her physical responses to my needs, but also through her encouraging words of affirmation that gave me strength when I needed it most.
Not only is she an intuitive doula, she is also a very gifted birth photographer! The mind blowing part is that she can do both jobs effortlessly at the SAME TIME. It is so evident through her photos that she LOVES what she does in capturing the raw and gorgeous emotions flooding throughout birth photography. As a photographer myself, I have VERY high standards in who I choose to document my family's most precious moments, and Maegan fit the bill. The images we have are priceless, and I wouldn't trade them for anything in the world.
And lastly, on a superficial note - Maegan somehow made me LOOK AMAZING the entire labor :) I thought I wouldn't care what I looked like during labor, but when the day came, I was straightening my hair during contractions! HA. But after I came to the point that I couldn't "keep up" with how I looked anymore, I would feel Maegan gently place a bobby pin in my hair. She even helped me to "primp" for photos with my new family. I seriously can't imagine there being a better photographer/doula combo out there :)
