Photographers
A volunteer photographer is available for you on-call through Island Health. This is a free service.
If a photographer is not available to attend your birth, Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep still offers beautiful retouching of images taken by the family or hospital staff. Photos are gently retouched, printed in a professional lab, and digital backup of files is provided for lifetime – at no cost. Click here to learn more.
