Welcome to the Baltimore birth photographer’s page! I hope you love birth photography as much as I do. I am sharing this story from Baltimore City. I am beyond excited to share this birth session. This little angel was born a month early and was the tiniest baby I have ever photographed outside of the hospital. He was a whopping 3lbs and 15oz! He was such a sleepy little guy too. This was my longest birth too! I arrived at the hospital and mom was relaxing. She was put on magnesium for pre-e. She was going along just fine but no real progression. I left to go get some sleep and was called back about two hours later that they were going to break her water. I rushed back to the hospital to wait some more and after lunch her water was broken and her contractions picked up. When her water was broken then all the excitement started. Max was born after maybe five minutes of pushing (crowning and post crowning shots aren’t posted due to modesty) and he made a tiny little sound. He was perfect. Because he was born so early he was taken away to do all of the tests they usually do and then he was taken to the NICU. I came back a few days later after he was out to do his Fresh 48 session.
