Sometimes Im still in disbelief.
2013 was such an amazing year for me professionally and emotionally.
Never did I think I would be able to be, witness to, and capturing, the birth of so many beautiful Babies.
When I decided to take my photography business in this direction, I knew in my heart it was what I was meant to do.
But the support for my friends and family and from the community has been amazing.
Not to mention my little Facebook Following, such a small thing, but my ‘Likes’ tripled this year alone.
That is amazing to me.
Some of my photos have been seen all over the world. They make people feel good. They brings tears to their eyes and warm their hearts.
That is what I wanted.
The Families.
I am so honoured. I cant say it enough.
Thank you for allowing me to be there.
Ive Created this slideshow to commemorate this past year in photos and moments from all 13 births.
It was an emotioal journey for me.
I hope you enjoy it.
I hope also, maybe you’ll share it.
On your Facebook Page, to your Best Friend, Your family.
You cant just ‘tell’ people about Birth Photography….You have to ‘Show’ them.
So…Show them
Thank you again.
And Here’s looking forward to another Amazing year!

Aunty Rene…. – Oh my Ashley…forty years+ since I personally travelled this journey for the first time…and ‘your gift’ of capturing the moments and ‘feelers’ of these wonderful families brought it all back as if it just happened… and I can SO see Uncle Don’s face looking most adoringly at me… and our newborn son…and recall us both peacefully soaking in the moments of the most incredible miracle that we had just assisted God with. BLESS YOU!!… for challenging yourself to dream this dream… and to achieve your deeply felt thoughts and goals… and for then gracing these people with the treasure chest of tangible memories that they will hold close to their hearts forever… and be able to share with their beautiful children as well! Your <3 should feel full… and a strong sense of accomplishment… and I wish you another fine year of the opportunities to continue what you love doing… ‘n that you do SO well! I am amazed at what you accomplish…but I also remember what’s possible when you are young, creative, ambitious, and V*E*R*Y organized! You gift our lives so beautifully in so many ways…and I for one ‘thank you’ for that… but I KNOW I am certainly NOT alone!! ;o) <3 Remember to take care of Ashley in it all… and continued blessings as you fulfill your dreams! Warm hugs…’n much love, always! ‘Aunty Rene’ <3 <3
