….hello, baby… Portland oregon birth photography

:sigh:

 

You know, you can’t always control everything, right?

I had about a 4 hour chunk of time that this birth was “uncovered”… meaning I had an obligation and my backup also had something until later in the afternoon…

Surely, surely, not *then*.

 

Oh yes, then.  🙂

 

It’s always then.

lesson learned.

100mph driving by my husband, a series of frantic text messages, and alas, I still missed it by minutes.

 

Although, to be honest even if I hadn’t been an hour away when I “got the call”, I probably wouldn’t have made it anyway because who delivers *a half hour after arriving at the hospital?*

This rockstar lady, that’s who….

 

Needless to say, I loved snapping these shots of Cade meeting Aven and Rhys… (I photographed Aven at a workshop which is how I know her mama!)

I’m adding “hello baby” to my birth pricing… for those who either don’t want full birth coverage or decide afterwards they want to remember the oh-so-very-new… the first bath, the footprints, the wrinkled prune fingered hands, the first snuggles and the first meet and greet with big brothers and sisters…

Just email me via the “contact” tab  if you’re interested <3 I’ll put it on my main pricing page in a bit.
