Birth Photography

All I have to really say here is this was one experience that I will never ever forget! This family is so special to my husband and I! What a privilege it was to be the photographer attending this birth. I witnessed first hand how beautiful and calming and easy home-birth can be! I have to say, being in that room was a powerful experience. She herself, is a Doula, and handled labor and delivery like a rock star! I hope to become a Doula one day, so this was a great experience for me. You can read the mother's blog here. Beautiful!


 This is what she requested a couple of times, pressure around her waist.
