I really loving photographing births.  I have photography births from the start of labor to the end, natural births and those with epidurals.  So far they have all been in the hospital.  This was my first birth story done all natural and at home with a midwife.  It was an incredible experience!  It was just 3 weeks after I had given birth to my daughter and so all those memories and feelings were fresh on the surface.  When Emme’s mom held her for the first time she just cried, “I can’t believe I did it!  I’m so happy she is finally her!”  I couldn’t hold back the tears…I remember that same exasperated cry of relief and joy.  Birth is the most beautiful miracle.
