it’s been several months now, but i had the incredible honor of photographing another birth! kathy and my relationship was at first just professional, as she was looking for someone to help capture her 3rd and final birthing that would take place at their home; but quickly we grew to be friends. for those of you who don’t know kathy, this woman LOVES being pregnant!!! she loves the way she looks, feels, all of it! and her birthing was simply miraculous! her baby was 9 lbs 8 1/2 oz and presented forehead first (which, btw is not the smallest part of the head) and this woman’s only anesthetic was the presence of all her family and friends (it was the most well attended birth i have ever been a part of), the sweet touches of her mother and daughter and husband, and water! kathy, you rock! and kailaya couldn’t be more beautiful! to see the whole story of this home birth, see below.
