We’re so excited to share something special with our community. Emerald Doulas is partnering with Heart in Hands Photography for a Birthing While Black Fundraiser Photography Day, and we would love for you to be part of it. This is a chance to get beautiful photos while also supporting a deeply meaningful cause. The Birthing While Black Fund helps expand access to postpartum doula care for Black birthing people in our community, offering compassionate and culturally aligned support for those who need it.
Your session can be anything you want it to be, pregnancy, parenthood, or simply a chance to document your family as you are right now. The timing is perfect for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, and Non-Binary Parents Day gifts!
Recommended donation is $100, with a pay scale starting at $50+ so more families can participate. But your donations can be even more if you feel led to contribute to this amazing cause.
Sessions will be held at Shadowbox Studio in Durham, NC on April 4th
Spots are limited, so grab yours soon.

We see so many beautiful images of family, food, & home decor over the holidays. Now it's time to share the real nitty gritty, & help each of us feel a little better knowing we're not alone in the mess! What didn't go exactly according to plan? Kiddo meltdowns? Food fiascos? Naughty pets? I want to see (or hear about) it all so we can hopefully find a little humor in it. Share in comments!

Our Birth Story

Emerald Doulas was born out of the need to create a cohesive, personalized, inclusive community for new and expectant families in and around Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, NC and surrounding Triangle cities.

Combining their years of experience supporting and nurturing new parents and their newborns, owners Ashley Collins & Melanie Patrick are proud to offer the area’s most comprehensive and professional birth and postpartum support business.

Since our opening in 2016, we’ve supported over 400 local families through doula services, infant feeding guidance, our evidence-based classes, and network of community support groups.
