Birth photography.
Just the phrase makes people raise their eyebrows.
I’ve heard it all:
“No way, that’s too intimate.”
“I don’t want anyone there.”

It’s about understanding.

it’s about remembering power.
In the next post, I’ll tell you why these photos often become the most meaningful in a family’s life.
