There's nothing more beautiful and empowering than being present and holding space for a woman in labor. It’s one of my absolute favorite stories to tell. It’s a time when there’s lots of hormones and lots of things going on, and bits and pieces get lost throughout the day. To be able to capture such an incredible moment, bringing all the bits and pieces back together forever, is such an honor.
It’s kind of impossible to do justice to the incredible events that unfold before my lens. It’s even harder for me to put into words the raw connection, strength, love, and support that is the energy of the sacred birthing space, so I suppose I’ll just let the images speak for themselves.
