Marin Whiting
Doula | Photographer | Videographer
hi, im Marin
I am a certified birth and bereavement doula, videographer, and photographer.
I have a deep love for supporting women during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.
My passion is to make women feel seen, known, and loved as they love their little ones. I believe when a baby is born, a mother is born too. While most of the world focuses on baby, I focus on the mother.
I’ll be here to support you and capture the beautiful moments of birth, and postpartum.

Brave Birth Philosophy
I believe through each birth experience we are called to be braver than we ever have in our lives.
Your story may be one of recurrent loss, still birth, cesarean, VBAC, or unmedicated and uncomplicated.
Each story calls us into a strength, and bravery we never knew we held until we meet that moment.
I believe women are strong and resilient.
I believe our bodies can be trusted and our voices matter. I believe in a holistic approach to doula care.
I believe that birth is not one size fits all.
I want to serve women in the ways that are best for her unique situation, and hopes for her pregnancy and birth.
I look at the whole woman - her family, culture, past, and present.
I believe in evidence based care.
I advocate for women and believe they are in charge of their birth experience
