FamiliesThe Birth of Baby Isabella – San Francisco Bay Area Birth Photography
Posted on August 1, 2009
This week, I had the honor of photographing the birth of Baby Isabella. E had planned for a home birth. She had a wonderful midwife and an amazing doula on hand to help her through this journey. What she did not plan on was a 50 hour labor (Yes, 50 hours!) and 5 hours of pushing. She did all of this unmedicated. I am completely in awe. She was so calm throughout the entire process.
I’m working on a slide show but am waiting on final approval from E and her husband before posting. Some images are very intense and involve nudity, so I want to make sure they are comfortable with sharing before I post them.
For now, here are a few of my favourite pictures from the day.
those are AWESOME! I had tears as I viewed them. What an amazing gift you have given them! I can't wait to see the rest (if they allow it!) You totally captured the moment!!
gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! Can't wait to see the slideshow.
Beautiful!! Congrats to their family
