Welcoming Cameron!

 

I had the most wonderful time photographing the birth of Cameron Steven Cunningham.  Photographing a birth was in my plans since we moved to Columbus, Ohio, and I was so happy that Nicole and Ryan agreed in having me there to document their first birth. It was such an emotional moment for me and it is beyond exciting see a baby being born.  Nicole and Ryan decided to have a home birth, and with the help of three midwifes: Kelley, Tanya, and Jessica. The ladies were great and brought all their expertise and experience to make this birth peaceful and as painless as possible.  Nicole endured 16 hours of labor, in the end she was very tired but overjoyed to deliver an adorable nine pound baby boy.  Jacob, this handsome boxer, was with us pretty much all the time and he was as excited as the rest of us. I loved every moment of this birth! Nicole was so brave and she did an amazing job. Ryan couldn’t be a prouder  father and Jake was there to share the happiness of this brand new family. I don’t need to point that Cameron is a cutie pie and it will be forever in my heart.  I did share a tear or two of happiness during this birth, it was magical and feel so excited to be able to share those pictures. Thank you Nicole, Ryan and Jake for allowing me to capture the moment that will change your life forever! Thank to the midwifes from Choice -The Center for Humane Options in Childbirth Experience

Hi Eunice,
What a wonderful job you did in photographing Nicole giving birth! Your work was very tastfully done while capturing the pain as well as the joy of giving birth. I like the B&W imagery along with your use of subtle lighting in the shoot. The facial expressions are wonderful. Thank you for such a fantastic artistic expression and for sharing.
