I am always thrilled to be invited to photograph a birth and to take part in such a momentous part in a family’s life. Our Blessed Strength Mama has delivered her new baby boy, and I got to capture every moment!

When I got the text that Kristy’s water had broken in the middle of her 39-week appointment while at the midwives’ office (such timing!), we knew we wouldn’t have too long before baby arrived. Kristy headed home to labor for a few hours, but was promptly headed back to the hospital before too long. Sometimes these third babies don’t waste their time!

With a great support team of best friend, mother-in-law, and attentive husband, Kristy labored with quiet, focused intensity without any drugs. Kristy’s hope prior to labor was to have a more peaceful, unmedicated birth this time around, and she got exactly what she worked so hard for.

The room had an expectant but quiet serenity as Kristy prepared to welcome her new baby boy, and at 7:52 p.m., he arrived with barely a cry, all 8 lbs., 2 oz. of him! It was truly a beautiful, peaceful birth. Baby and mama were surrounded by love and care through the entire process, and it was a joy to be a part of.

I am so thrilled for this family as they complete their family of five with little Tommy.  It was truly an honor! Congratulations!

Here are just a few of the images from Tommy’s birth, and I am so thankful that Kristy allowed me to share them with you!Renton WA birth photography - Kent WA birth photography - Covington WA birth photography - laboring mom - natural birth laborRenton WA birth photography - Kent WA birth photography - Covington WA birth photography - laboring mom - natural birth laborRenton WA birth photography - Kent WA birth photography - Covington WA birth photography - laboring mom - natural birth laborRenton WA birth photography - Kent WA birth photography - Covington WA birth photography - laboring mom - natural birth laborRenton WA birth photography - Kent WA birth photography - Covington WA birth photography - laboring mom - natural birth laborRenton WA birth photography - Kent WA birth photography - Covington WA birth photography - laboring mom - natural birth laborRenton WA birth photography - Kent WA birth photography - Covington WA birth photography - laboring mom - natural birth laborRenton WA birth photography - Kent WA birth photography - Covington WA birth photography - laboring mom - natural birth laborRenton WA birth photography - Kent WA birth photography - Covington WA birth photography - laboring mom - natural birth laborRenton WA birth photography - Kent WA birth photography - Covington WA birth photography - laboring mom - natural birth laborRenton WA birth photography - Kent WA birth photography - Covington WA birth photography - laboring mom - natural birth laborCovington_MapleValley_birth_photographer_12Renton WA birth photography - Kent WA birth photography - Covington WA birth photography - laboring mom - natural birth labor
