The Birth of Baby R | A Townsville Cesarean Birth at the Mater Women and Children's Hospital Hyde Park

Last month I had the privilege of attending Baby R's birth. M&G booked me very early on in their pregnancy so I had almost the whole pregnancy to walk along side them, get to know them and anticipate the arrival of their little one with them. Because we knew M was scheduled for a cesarean, I arrived at their house ahead of time to capture some of their preparations before heading to the hospital. We then travelled to the hospital where I captured the lead up to the birth of sweet R, and the precious moments during and following his birth.

Here is a small selection of images from their gallery.
