A Labor and Delivery

Aaahhhh, new life. I love it! This beautiful couple allowed me to be present in a dual role for their first born baby, a boy named Austin. I got to act as a labor coach AND as photographer...my two most passionate outlets!! I don't think I slept for a few days after the high I was on from this. Enjoy! :)

The second one is so intense! And the one of the Daddy holding up the baby made me tear up. These will be cherished forever by them:)

These are absolutely beautiful. Another person who is tearing up over them. It makes me sad that I only have 1 photo with my son after he was born. They wisked him away to the neo-natal unit.
Thank God he is fine....just thinking I wish I was as lucky as these parents. AMAZING!!!!
