In the wee hours of the morning

It doesn't get any more NEWborn than this. I had the extreme honour of attending a birth as a photographer recently. Aside from the birth of my own daughter and my wedding, this experience was one of the most amazing of my life. I was SO delighted when M & A invited me to do this...and was as giddy as a school girl in the weeks leading up to M's due date.

Funny thing...I ran into M on her due date, August 10th, while picking blueberries at a local farm! So ladies, if you're pregnant and wondering what you can do to get things moving, perhaps it's time to pick your own berries! LOL Sure enough, at 2 am Monday morning, I got the call.

Amazingly, I was back home by 5:30 am. 2 hour labour...no drugs. Big, Fat Kudos to you M!! You're a strong woman! Congratulations to you both and big brother O.

Stay tuned...I may post more when their ready!





So that's what I did on my week off from work...I retiled a kitchen backsplash, picked blueberries, and photographed a birth. Everyone does that, right? ;)
