Hello Gabriela 

{birth story}

This birth was BEAUTIFUL! This lovely couple have a crystal clear connection that you can really feel through these pictures. This mama was fierce and strong and so sure of herself and her baby. She really rocked and owned her birth. I am quiet as a mouse when I am documenting a birth (unless it's a chatty kind of event) but I had a hard time keeping quiet at times because I just wanted to scream out my cheers of encouragement as she overcame hurdles because I knew she knew she could do it and sometimes you have very little time left before the midwives and doctors need to make the call. But she knew, and she did it! It was a really powerful birth! You can watch the whole video at the end of this post. Beware, it's a real tear jerker!

Hello Jackson 

{birth story}

This mama didn't have the easiest pregnancy so when birthing day came a little earlier than expected (still full term) all was wonderful in the world. When I arrived at NYGH I knew this was going to be a beautiful birth because I entered a room full of so much support and love. This couple also had two beautiful very eager little girls waiting to meet their new sibling! Were they going to have a brother or a sister? It was a surprise for everyone. Ya know, I have noticed more and more people have been waiting until birth to find out baby's gender, and I must admit, the pictures of the moment when baby's birth gender is revealed is always so epic!! Just take a look at the third picture down! See?! So good! Please scroll down to see some of my favourite images from this birth, and be sure to watch the incredible birth video at the bottom! Bring some tissues! 

Now turn up the volume and press play! 

Thank you for watching!
