Capturing the moment when ...
a baby breathes their first breath and lets out that newborn cry
a parent sees their baby's face after 9 long months of waiting
a grandmother sees her first granddaughter arrive...
These are sacred moments.
And why I love what I do.
When Jenny first asked me to shoot the birth of her second child, Joy, I admit I was intimidated. First of all, Jenny is a very talented photog and second, um, hello, it's a birth!! But I was also very honored and grateful that she would trust me with such an intimate moment...
Although there are a ton of images from that day, here are just a few glimpses, shared with permission from Jenny....
Joy's big brother Evan (in picture frame above) was staying with his grandparents and was coming the next day to visit his little sister for the first time....
I'll be sharing some images from their first meeting in the next post~
