hey there! i’m gladys—

I’m a wife, a dedicated homeschooling mama to four incredible kids, and a passionate birth worker. Our family life is a beautiful mix of structured chaos—celebrating our oldest’s graduation, guiding two middle schoolers, and nurturing our sweet 8-year-old daughter with special needs. Our days are filled with music, learning, baking, gardening, outdoor adventures, running a business, and of course, countless loads of laundry (with an endless supply of coffee to keep up!).

People often ask, “How do you do it all?” The truth is, I don’t do it alone. Balancing motherhood, marriage, homeschooling, and business ownership isn’t easy, but I’ve learned to embrace the messy middle—leaning on systems, creativity, and teamwork. My husband and kids are not just my biggest supporters, they’re part of the journey, taking an active role in the work I do. Many of the incredible women I serve are fellow mompreneurs, navigating family life while pursuing their dreams. This shared experience allows me to connect with them in a deep and meaningful way.

As a bilingual certified birth photographer and doula, I thrive on building authentic connections. My heart is in making every client feel safe, seen, and empowered—because your birth story is uniquely yours and deserves to be documented with love and intention. I firmly believe that every woman has the right to choose how and where she gives birth. With the right support and encouragement, every birth can be a beautiful, transformative experience.

It is my greatest joy and honor to walk alongside mamas, capturing their legacy of love and strength through the power of storytelling. Whether it’s through birth photography, doula support, or simply cheering you on in your journey, I’m here for you. Because you were created on purpose, for a purpose—and your story is worth telling.
