I'm Mon, the heart behind at Golden Hour Doula & Photography 💛
“People often forget what you did, but they will never forget how you made them feel.” - Maya Angelou
At Golden Hour, this is the heart behind everything I do — creating a space where you feel held with love.
As your doula, I walk alongside you through pregnancy, birth and the early days of motherhood, offering calm, warm, nurturing support and a reassuring presence so you feel seen, supported and cared for.
As your photographer, I preserve the beauty, strength and connection woven through your journey, capturing the moments, emotions and love that you will treasure for a lifetime.
Whether I am holding space for you during birth or capturing the memories of your growing family, my hope is that every moment with Golden Hour leaves you feeling truly held.
Doula Support
Pregnancy, Birth & Postpartum
Because you deserve to be held too!
Birth is one of life's most transformative moments, and you deserve to feel supported, informed and cared for every step of the way.
As your doula, I provide nurturing emotional, physical and practical support throughout pregnancy, birth and the early postpartum days.
I am here to listen, encourage and hold space for your unique journey, helping you feel confident, calm and never alone.
Held with love through your journey into motherhood.

Your Tender Moments Captured For A Lifetime!
As both a doula and photographer,
I understand the vulnerability and beauty of birth. I gently preserve the moments that unfold — the strength, the love, the first touches and the emotions that make your birth story uniquely yours. Making myself invisible, whilst still capturing the moments you want to cherish for a lifetime.
A celebration of you, the mother and the incredible journey that brought you here. You deserve to feel beautiful and honoured, which is why I capture and create heartfelt images that honour this fleeting season and the connection between you and your growing baby. Access to complimentary client wardrobe.
Those first days with your baby are filled with moments you wish you could hold onto forever. I capture the tiny details, gentle connections and overwhelming love of this precious season, creating timeless memories of the beginning of your family’s story. Offering both in home (I come to you) newborn sessions, as well as fresh 48 (session in the first 48hrs of bubs life). Complementary baby wraps, outfits and headbands.
Every family has a story worth celebrating. Through natural and heartfelt photography, I capture the bond, personalities and beautiful moments that make your family uniquely yours — preserving memories you’ll treasure as your children grow. I shoot with a mix of candid moments, and posed images.
Why Golden Hour?
More than beautiful photographs.
More than birth support.
My favourite quote that I live my life by is:
“Never let a problem to be solved become more important than a person to be loved.”
At Golden Hour, this is at the true heart of everything I do.
I believe the most important part of the motherhood journey and the thing that makes all the difference is the mother feeling held, heard and empowered.
Therefore, put simply, this is what you receive when we work together. I am there from start to finish of your journey, to laugh and cry with you. Whilst I am always furthering my knowledge, my true gift, is how I make you feel.
Every mother deserves to feel seen, nurtured and supported. Whether I am walking alongside you as your doula or capturing your story through photography, my heart is to create a calm and loving space where you feel valued, respected and cared for. Alongside this, I will provide you with birth education, and informed knowledge so that every step of the way you are in control, and have self advocacy; and in those moments when you cant be your own advocate, I will be that for you. You are the centre of why I am here!
Your journey is more than a moment to manage or a story to document — it is a deeply personal experience to be honoured and remembered.
Held with love. Captured for a lifetime.
