I was so very surprised and honored when I was invited by the talented Miss Mariah to photograph the birth of their 3rd baby. If you’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting Mariah, you will immediately find that she is a calming presence…someone who appreciates the simple gifts in life, someone who is very grounded and very focused on her family. Evidently, she is just as calm while giving birth ;-).
Beautiful. Simply beautiful. Watch the slideshow below and see how she trusts her body to work through the contractions and just look at how attentive her husband is (amazing to witness). Oh, and I love the look on her face when she finds out the gender (a surprise!)! But at the end…oh that beautiful baby and all of that HAIR!

And the end result? Just as beautiful. Just as peaceful. All is right with the world. Congratulations again on your new arrival!
As I continue my proofing, I have to sit here in anxious anticipation, phone by my side, camera at the ready for the next baby to hatch. Who’s going to be first? All bets are off when it comes to predicting labors and the suspense is killing me. Here’s to many safe, quick, and [relatively] painless deliveries any day now!
