I have been blessed one more time to see and photograph another baby birth.
This one was of my very good friends, Mike and Stephanie who had their baby Ryan at home in a water birth. Stephanie was a champion through out her long all day labor. She did not use any pain killers and I did not hear her scream even once! Mike did an amazing job attending to any of his wife needs. The Midwife and her team were there the whole time and knew exactly what to do. It was such a peaceful way for baby Ryan to come into this world. Thank you Mike and Stephanie for making me part of this amazing day! Happy birthday Ryan!
Here are some images that I would like to share with you.
It was such a gift to have you there, my love. I am blessed to have you as a friend - and such a talented photographer!

ReplyDeleteWonderful, and I have to say you all look like such normal folks, I love it when home birth families are just regular people who just happen to be having their babies at home.

ReplyDeleteHome birth familes ARE just regular people who have their babies at home! The pit hair having hippies are actually few and far between in my experience! Congratulations you guys, looks like you had an AMAZING birth!
