Baby Burns

By

I love love LOVE being able to attend the birth of a new little bundle and photograph the miracle that it is!! I love seeing the tender touches, hearing the reassuring words, and being able to witness the miracle that the whole birth process is. Each birth is completely unique and beautiful. I still can’t believe I’ve been through it 5 times myself! Totally worth it I might add 🙂

This adorable baby boy came into the world a whopping 8 pounds 4 ounces, with the most adorable bum chin and dimple in his cheek. Mom did amazing and I loved watching dad do what he could to help. It’s interesting being on the other end of things. It’s hard to watch someone go through the unbearable pain and not be able to do anything. I feel for dads! And mom had the best midwives ever!! They were both there for my last baby’s birth!! If you’re contemplating a birth photographer at your next birth, don’t think, just do it! It is 150% worth it!

Ok, that’s enough writing, here’s baby Burns’ birth day…

I had the privilege of attending the birth of my new little niece. I think she loves me most because she decided to come 3 weeks early, 2 days before I took my little family on vacation! She just knew I needed to be there.
My sister did amazing and had the most beautiful water birth. Millie weighed in at 5 pounds 13 ounces and was 19 inches long. She is just the sweetest little button! Thanks for letting me be a part of such a special time for you Katelyn and Sean. I just love her!

 I was able to attend the most beautiful birth recently. Ryan and Susie decided to keep the gender of the baby a surprise, and everyone in that hospital room was ecstatic to find out that after 3 girls their last baby was a BOY!  
Susie did amazing! The nurse was hesitant to call the doctor in because Susie was just so happy. The only way you could tell when she was having a contraction was when she’d go quiet and put her head down.  At 11:51am weighing 7 pounds 7ounces and 19 1/2″ long a little blondie baby boy was born. I think he looks a lot like his sisters. This little boy will definitely not be lacking in the motherly love department, that’s for sure!
I’m so grateful to have been able to be a part of this experience. The doctor asked if Susie and were sisters (we look nothing alike), I think it was more that I was getting completely emotional and at times could barely see through the tears to take pictures. I love being able to witness such an incredible miracle.


Rosie’s Birth Day – Calgary Birth Photography

Ashley patiently waited 12 extra days for little Rosie to arrive. Rosie held on just long enough so she wouldn’t have to share her birthday with her auntie (not that I would’ve minded). But she came safe and sound and nice and rosy into the world.

Ashley did beautifully! I am amazed at how she handled everything. I keep telling her she should have a dozen kids because first of all, they’re so dang cute! and secondly because she seems to breeze through pregnancy and delivery. No joke – 2 pushes and Rosie was here. All 8 pounds 14oz of her! I wish I could be like you, Ash.

Thanks for letting me be there. Oh, and the BYUI shirt my mom made since Rosie is grandbaby #11 and also Dave’s (Rosie’s dad) sport number!
