Phoenix's Birth Story 2020
You know how you plan your birth? You want everything to go just as planned, you vision it, dream about it, and write down everything you're going to bring. But guess what? We're not the ones who are in control. I learned that one the hard way. I talked with my midwives about the date I wanted, I talked to my nurse friend about when she should schedule herself so she could be there, I scheduled my maternity leave off work and just like that we were thrown a fast ball. I


Baby Phoenix's Fresh 48 Short Clip
Recovering from an emergency C-Section didn't make taking these video clips very easy. Don't tell my husband that I stood on a chair to get some of these! But you know me and pictures/videos are everything! I love this video and it's something I'll rewatch over and over to remember him when he was just days old. These fresh 48 short clips are so fun and I wish I could do them more! #lanahansen #lanahansenphotography #lanahansenphoto #birthvideo #hospitalbirthpictures #birt


Baby Nora's Birth Story 2019
It seems like I was just at the hospital photographing Nora's big sister's birth! There were some similarities to their births but many differences so it was so fun to see how things went this time around. Nora was a little more excited to come into the world! Kiley labored naturally until she reached 8 cm then wanted to enjoy the birth of her sweet little girl. Devin was so hands-on helping her with everything she needed from foot and back massages to a drink of water or


Baby Taylie's Birth Story 2019
This month marks three years of trying for a new baby, four rounds of Intrauterine Insemination, and one round of In Vitro Fertilization Kaden and Kaitlin were blessed with a gorgeous baby girl Taylie! I was honored they chose me to be their Richfield Utah birth photographer! She went to bed only to wake two hours later in labor and I couldn't help but laugh when she told me she labored alone for two hours before waking her husband to go to the hospital. She labored totall


Mountain Utah Family Medicine Midwives' Promo Video
Having my babies with a midwife was the best decision I could have made when it came time to having babies. Dixie delivered all three of my babies and Sadie was there for my last one as well. Being mothers themselves, they knew what I was going through and how to fully help me through both my epidural and natural births. The best part is that they labored with me far more than just the delivery. They are both so understanding that I feel comfortable asking even the most


Baby Zoey's Birth Story
I don't know how I get so attached to these families that I photograph but I do and I love this one! I felt so at home watching Impractical Jokers and waiting for little Miss Zoey to make her arrival. The hospital staff was so friendly and my own backyard neighbor was her labor and delivery nurse! They were all so calm and in control and when Zoey made her appearance she was bright eyed looking around at this new world she came into! I'm so happy for her to join her famil


Baby Zoee's Birth Story
I get so excited when people book me for birth stories. I have had three of my own babies and feel like it is something so important that it needs to be documented. Zach and Brittani live over two hours away and chose me to be their Utah birth photographer! If that isn't a compliment I don't know what is! I was extra excited for their birth because I have never witnessed a c-section before so this was all new to me. I wasn't allowed in the actual operating room but I was


Jade's Fresh 48 Session {Newborn Photography}
When you're on your way to the hospital and your sister calls to tell you to turn around because you missed her birth you cry! Cry tears of joy and sadness! Baby Jade was so excited to arrive she came two weeks early and within a half hour of arriving at the hospital! I was so heartbroken but also happy for my sister. I was able to take pictures the next day for my sister and I love how they turned out. Jade is so loved and already fits right in with her new family! #lan


Baby Talmage's Birth Story {Birth Photography}
It seems like every birth I attend becomes my new favorite and I come to realize I really love capturing new babies enter the world. Sharayah labored naturally for her third baby to arrive and she did amazing! Her husband was so supportive and didn't leave her side pampering her and doing all he could to help her through this. I appreciate a husband who understands the pain and effort we go through during childbirth and tries to help as much as possible. Baby Talmage cam


Baby Clara's Birth Story {Birth Photography}
I remember the first time I held my baby for the first time. I can't describe the instant love I had for that tiny little soul I just brought in to this world. That moment will forever be engraved in my mind and will always hold a place in my heart. Since then my love for births has run strong. Candice was amazing as she labored all day through her natural child birth and Colton was one of the most supportive husbands I have ever met. She had the most amazing hospital te
