Birth Session - the magic and memories

I can't remember a time when I didn't have a camera in my hand!  What began as a hobby as a teenager, quickly turned into a passion for creating beautiful artwork - and Jill Grove Photography was born!  I have always enjoyed the thrill of capturing and freezing a moment in time and being able to experience the same emotions even years after the moment has passed.  In my sessions, I prefer less traditional poses and more natural settings...to capture life and moments as they happen.  SO, when a couple contacted me and asked if I would be interested in photographing their child's birth, I jumped at the chance!!  I had never photographed a birth session before, but it fits perfectly with my photo-journalistic style and approach, and I was so excited!  We set up a meeting to discuss expectations and styles and discovered we were already on the same page - it was a match made in heaven!  They called me to the hospital when the time came and I set up in a corner of the room to capture the magic as it unfolded:

This session turned out to be one of my most treasured experiences as a photographer - just capturing the moments as they were happening and preserving those memories and emotions for a lifetime!  There were so many amazing moments and it was such a beautiful experience and everything flowed smoothly.  I made sure to tastefully capture the memories and create beautiful artwork for their family:

It was so exhilarating to see the love of this little family!  They are such proud parents and they were instantly in love with their new little man!  Proud Daddy and Proud Mommy moments are some of my favorites and there were SO MANY of those:

Their new little man was absolutely perfect and came into the world surrounded by love!  It was such an emotional time, and I wanted to make sure to capture all of the most important memories of the day so they would always be able to look at their photos and bring the memories of the day flooding back!

When they brought their son in to meet his little brother for the first time, it was such a perfect encounter!  He was so happy to be a big brother and it showed!  He was excited to meet him and there was so much love in the room, such pure joy!  I loved every minute of it!

The whole experience was pure love and magic!  I am so excited that I had this opportunity and sincerely hope I get to do it again!  Whether I am photographing senior portraits, family photos, or a major milestone event, I always strive to capture those moments that are not expected...but that will help to preserve the memories of that moment for years to come!
