Maria Fuller

I’m a former critical care paramedic with a concentration in Emergency and Disaster Management, an injury on the job led me to retire from that and manage the disaster that is my home these days, I’m lucky I had good training! I believe in Love at first sight- I met my husband on his 18th birthday and the rest is history I’m passionate about a women’s right to birth without fear or pressure whether that is at home or in a hospital, I’ve done it in both places. I have two beautiful girls, Alexa and Arya, 5.5 years apart. I believe each of my daughters was sent to me to remind me of a piece of myself I have lost along the way, it has been exciting journey to rekindle those parts of “ME” again. We live on a little River in Southbury, CT with our Rotti Beagle mix, a Crazy 1 year old German Shephard and a fat cat that won’t leave the basement, he might be to fat to climb the stairs. I love a good margarita on the rocks with Salt but ONLY if my husband makes it with hand squeezed lemons, limes and homemade simple syrup, any other margarita sucks. I listen to “pitbull” in the car with my daughters, they have no idea who Raffi is but Alexa knows most of the words to “Calle Ocho” I’m the girl who will love you fiercely but is not afraid to “tell you like it is”, if I do, it means I actually care about you! I love my girls but there are many days I don’t like them or want to be around them. Yep, I just said that, its normal for you to feel that too! I believe that mothers a given a handbook when their baby is born, its called “intuition” and it will never lead her astray. I am a photographer who helps women “Celebrate the Courageous journey of motherhood”
