Baila Feldman · Central New Jersey
Hi, I'm Baila.
A mother. A photographer of real, unscripted moments.
I don't stage families. I capture them — because who you already are was worth remembering long before I showed up with a camera.
The part nobody photographs
I know the mental load. The dinners. The laundry. Knowing what everyone needs before they ask.
Repacking the diaper bag for the third time before we've left the driveway.
And somehow never ending up in a single photo — because I'm always the one holding the camera.
WHY THIS WORK MATTERS TO ME:
I'm an artist, first and always. And somewhere in raising my own kids, I watched that time doesn't just pass — it flies. They were newborns. Now they're already big. And when I look back, it was never the posed, put-together photos that showed me who they really were.
It was the mess. The bottle held with two clumsy little hands. The love in a completely unplanned moment. That's what I wanted to hold onto — not how they looked, but who they were, exactly as they were, at every age along the way.
I love connection. I love art. This work is something I'm deeply passionate about — a place where both finally come together.
WHEN I'M NOT BEHIND THE CAMERA
I'm first and foremost a mother — knee-deep in laundry, dinner, bath time, bedtime, and afternoons outside, doing all the ordinary things that fill a day.
I'm also a certified somatic practitioner in Transforming Touch and SRT, working with children carrying trauma and developmental trauma. That work is about helping the nervous system find safety again — helping someone come back into their body, and back into their life, so they can actually enjoy it.
It's not so different from what I do behind the camera. Both are about presence. Both are about helping someone feel safe enough to stop performing, and just be, exactly as they are.
When you get your gallery back, I don't just want you to see nice pictures. I want you to feel it — the love, the connection, exactly how your family felt in that moment. That's the whole point.
