Why Birth Photography
Wow, where do I start with this topic. Birth Photography is just such a gift to me. Every birth I photograph fills me with love and compassion and happiness. Being able to document the strength and love around having a baby is such a privilege for me.
During a birth as the mum you have no idea what is going on, or what the time is, or how things will progress. They are often in huge amounts of pain, followed by huge amounts of happiness and love. It’s an unknown and sometimes rather scary process. So being about to provide these images to my families is a gift that they and I cherish.
It’s not something that you are going to pull out and show the work colleges at the next social gathering, it’s something very personal that you might share with your child when their time comes to have a child of their own. It’s like a little special time capsule that will be discovered and treasured in years to come.
