From Our Heart to Yours
Welcome to YourCherish—a place where your most precious moments are not only captured but deeply honored.
We are the only company in New York and beyond that seamlessly combines newborn, maternity, and birth photography, videography, and doula support for birth and postpartum. Our team is made up of highly skilled, certified, and deeply passionate professionals—this is more than our work; it’s our life’s calling.
We don’t just take photos; we preserve your story—from the first kicks to the first cry, from your growing belly to the moment you hold your baby in your arms, from your firstborn to your third, fourth, or beyond. We are with you when you welcome new life, when you trust us again, when you send us your holiday cards, and when you share your experience with friends.
We are here when you have the birth of your dreams, when we help you navigate the unexpected, when you find strength you never knew you had.
And we are here when you print your photos, hold them in your hands, and pass them down through generations.
This is our promise: Every moment we capture is filled with love. Every image is edited with the highest level of care. Every doula on our team is certified and experienced. Every birth story is honored with respect and artistry.

What Families Say
Real words from real families — because trust is something we earn, not claim.
I cannot put into words what it meant to have Olga in the room. As a doula, she made me feel safe. As a photographer, she captured a moment I didn't even know was happening — my husband's face when our son was born. That photo is the most precious thing I own.
— Sarah M., Brooklyn, NY
I was so nervous about birth photography. I thought I'd feel watched or uncomfortable. I felt neither. I felt held. The photos are breathtaking and I look at them every week. Worth every single penny.
— Jennifer R., Manhattan, NY
We booked the combined doula + birth photography package and I tell every pregnant woman I know to do the same. It is unlike anything else available in NYC. This team is extraordinary.
— Amanda & David T., Upper West Side, NY
Anna attended my birth and I truly believe she is the reason I had the calm, empowered labor I had always hoped for. 17 years of experience shows in every moment. She knew what I needed before I did.
— Lisa K., Hoboken, NJ
Stories We've Had the Honor to Tell
Every image below belongs to a real family in New York, New Jersey, or Connecticut. Every story is sacred.
How It Works
Every event we host is designed with intention, from the atmosphere we create to the way each session flows.
Step 1 -Discovery Call
(15–20 minutes)
We learn about your due date, your wishes, your fears, and what matters most to you. There is no sales pressure — just an honest conversation about whether we are the right fit for your family.
Step 2 - Planning & Preparation
Once you book, we create your personalized session plan: location, timing, outfits, birth preferences, hospital logistics. For doula clients, we schedule prenatal visits so you feel fully supported before labor even begins.
Step 3 -Your Session or Birth
We arrive with everything we need and nothing you don't want. Whether it's a maternity shoot in Central Park, a birth at Brooklyn Methodist, or a newborn session in your Hoboken apartment — we show up fully prepared and fully present.
Step 4 - Your Gallery
Within 2–3 days, you receive a watermarked proof gallery to select your favorites. Final edited images are delivered within 5 - 10 days. Every image is edited with care — no mass processing, no filters that erase what made your moment real.
