One of my goals for 2015 is to document my own family more often. In order to ensure this happens, I made a point back in January to clear four days on the calendar this year to photograph a few Day In The Life sessions of my own family. The pictures below are the result of my first attempt at documenting a day in our life.
Mamas, let's chat.
As a birth photographer I have seen a fair share of births. Hard, strenuous, and even some downright alarming births. I have also seen beautiful births. Actually, every single one of the births I have witnessed has been beautiful in its own way. Truly.
Being a part of the birth industry (as well as being a new mama again) surrounds me with both birth professionals and new moms on a regular basis. And I've noticed a growing trend that makes me happy happy!
Where to even begin?!
Literally seconds after Izzie was born, all of my anxieties and fears about labor, birth, and parenting her were washed away. Maybe it was the oxytocin, or just the mere fact that her labor experience was behind me... but I felt AH-MAZING when I finally held her in my arms! PHEW - That pregnancy was a doozy!
Let us rewind a bit... :)
