Not all mothers want to immortalize the moments of their baby's birth, because they feel that immortalizing it in their retina and heart is more than enough. But Lately it is quite fashionable for a professional photographer to be in charge of being able to immortalize these exciting moments and so that in the future those snapshots can be enjoyed with family members, and above all, with the baby who is on the way.
The birth of your baby is a special moment and even if you remember the first cry, the first look and its smell, you may want to immortalize it. More and more parents are inviting photographers to delivery rooms, as long as the hospital allows their presence.
This practice consists of taking photographs of the first moments of the baby's life and of the parents' special moments at the time of delivery and moments later with the relatives. To get a good photographer you must do a good preliminary research and also show you some of his previous work to see if his style of photography you like.
Once you have found the right person, you should meet with him / her to discuss important factors, like what do you want me to photograph and what not. Previously, you should have spoken with the hospital to see if they agree to have a photographer in the waiting room or if their policy does not approve of it. In addition, with the professional you must also agree on an adequate payment for the hours that they are working for you (as the delivery is unpredictable, that person must have a flexible schedule to be able to be present at any time).
Of course, make sure that all the images you take at those moments are private, that you do not share them without your consent and that you also have a backup copy.
