Giving birth during a pandᴇmic is no small feat. Is there anything more beautiful or more powerful than a woman giving birth? This life-changing rite of passage gives birth to both a new kid and a new mother at the same time, and it’s a once-in-a-lifetime event. The ability to witness such beauty and strength via the sharing of birth photos helps to normalize birth and bodies, and we are delighted to be able to share the best of the best with you here. Through her photos, we hope women recognize that all types of birth are beautiful and embrace how powerful having a baby can be.

We weren’t able to go to the hospital with these parents but were still able to document their labor at home. The photo was taken by my associate, Rebecca.
