When I mention birth photography, most people are amazed and say, "That's a thing??" YES IT IS A THING, and it is amazing. You do not understand what rockstars moms are until you witness a birth. I absolutely love love loved getting to photograph these moments, starting with before baby Claire arrived, soaking in the anticipation, pain, excitement, support, and love in the room. Corrine and Ben were so happy and sweet. I have never seen a more beautiful mom in labor. Like, that's not even fair. My feet were comparable to an elephant's and she was glowing. They were cracking jokes and squeezing hands through the contractions. Ben was giving the perfect amount of support, cheering Corrine on with the promise of a Mad Mex feast post labor. I mean, that's definite motivation in my book. The actual pushing was truly about 3 minutes long, which was incredible. Then, there she was: that sweet, wrinkly, screaming, new, beautiful, tiny human. Claire was perfect the moment she entered the room and there was so much love surrounding her. Being invited into an experience like this requires a lot of trust, grace, and compassion on both ends. I am so thankful to have been given those things and more by Corrine and Ben. Welcome to the world, little one. You have some amazing people around you for this wild ride. Congratulations again to this sweet family! <3
