One of the goals on my life list was to photograph a labour/ birth. It's a kind of shoot where it is COMPLETELY photo-journalistic. There is no staging. No set-ups, and nothing is planned.
I mentioned a while ago I was wanting to do this, and lucky for me, my awesome neighbor's, Mike and Michelle volunteered. They were going to have baby boy #2, and were totally open to the idea of me taking pictures during this VERY special time.
What I didn't realize, was how completely amazing this was to witness. It was truly one of the MOST BEAUTIFUL things I've ever seen, and I feel so honored the Brown family let me be a part of it.
Also, Michelle is amazing, and did this completely natural. Um, superwoman!
