Belly Casting and Photography Services

The form of a wahine (woman) during pregnancy is unlike anything else on the planet.  To know that life is living and breathing within our womb is such a heart warming experience and one that is treasured on so many levels.  We embrace as much of this time together with our pepi (baby), until the moment labor starts and ultimately birth.  Many mama have taken the effort to memorialize this moment through belly casting and it is one service that I would like to offer to mama's.  I also photograph any or all aspects of the labor, birth and postnatal bonding, which is then presented to the whanau one month after the birth in a one off handmade album with all digital photo's saved to a USB stick for ease.  I do not need to be a tapuhi of a whanau to provide this service.
All art work that goes in to a cast is unique to your pregnancy, whanau and pepi.  This is a basic casting without artwork, which is cast from the puku and breasts only.  More detailed castings can be done with hands on puku, casting from the sternum to below the waist and including the bicep area.
