This family is so special to me. After I was their doula and birth photographer for the 48 hour birth of their first daughter, we became family. I was so excited when they told me they were expecting again, and last week we got to meet their second daughter, baby Zeina. Of course every birth I've attended has been different, but this was almost the opposite birth experience for this family!
It is always an honor to be present at a family's birth as their doula and/or birth photographer. Birth is an intimate experience and I appreciate the importance of being included in the team. It is even more amazing when family's give me permission to share their experience with the world.
Below you can watch the birth of zeina. I create a birth story for every birth I photograph. Please note that this particular birth story shows baby zeina being born. This is a preference that I discuss with each client, and is not always captured because of preferences. If you are squeemish around birth or offended by seeing it, please don't watch!
