After seeing a post on another forum awhile back on l&d photography I decided to look into it. At first it seemed kind of odd, but the more I found the more I fell in love with the one-of-a-kind emotion captured.
SOOOOOOOOOOO... after lots of looking at other photographers I called up our friend who did our wedding photography and ran the idea by him. I am SO glad that he's on board and for only 500 bucks (coverage AND a dvd of images)
For me, getting those moments captured is really important to... especially to have in the years to come. With DS 7 y/o already I can say that there's just alot of his birth that I don't remember =/ and would love to be able to have more from this one and our future ones.
sidenote: I already said I personally don't want any crowning shots. lol
I know that alot of moms wouldn't like this (especially with the whole pushing aspect) BUT I know that there are others who just don't know about it so I thought I'd post a couple photographers that I've found that do it to give an idea of what it's like. =)
