A Birth Story...

I love photographing births. I love birth. I am truly honored when someone chooses ME to be a part of such an intimate, earth shaking event.

When one of my good friends asked me to do this at her birth, I was thrilled, naturally. She and her husband are Deaf, so you will see an interpreter signing to her in some of the photos. Please click on the link below to get the whole experience!

Bittersweet.

Megan, of Trees and Bees Photography (and a dear friend of mine), had her sweet bundle of boy late last Wednesday night. She was amazing--and labored so beautifully. I get chills thinking about it. What an awesome moment in time for her to share with me. I am/was truly honored.

Shortly before posting this, I learned that her little one is quite sick and is having his heart checked out at a local childrens' hospital. Please keep him and his family in your thoughts and prayers.

Isn't she beautiful? And yes--she really is in labor here! (She is like at 8.5 / 9 centimeters dialated!)
