Birth | A behind the scenes look at birth photography | Gauteng Birth Photographer
“Trust in and rely confidently on the Lord with all your heart
And do not rely on your own insight or understanding.
In all your ways know and acknowledge and recognise Him,
And He will make your paths straight and smooth [removing obstacles that block your way].”
Proverbs 3:5-6
Getting to finally show you this “Behind the scenes” of shooting an actual birth has been nothing less than trust and faith. I am super excited to give you a little glimpse into a world that I love so much it sometimes hurt. It’s a world that are still a little bit foreign to some people, but I truly hope that with this different angle, the critics will be able to soak up the inspiring and wonderful thing that is Birth Photography.
I’ve been honoured to work with some of the best in the industry on this project and I would like to thank Heather from Midwives Exclusive for allowing me to shoot this video at her facilities, Natalie from Creationography for documenting me in front of the lens for a change, Tania from Tania van Twisk for putting the video together so beautifully and then not to forget my brave and fabulous mom Sunica for allowing me to document the birth of her baby.

It was incredible to whisper courage into your ears and see you take leaps moments later towards our freedom. You had many holes in your body, but I tried to hold your hand through this time and be there as much as possible, so that you wouldn’t go through it alone. Some holes in your body, some in mine. Daddy and I took turns to cover the day shift as well as the night shift.
