Apart from photography there is one thing I am really passionate about and that is Birth!!
Then photographing the Birth of a Baby...Well that is just the cherry on top 🍒
Birth Photography isn't for everyone and that's okay but imagine wanting this ever so important milestone in your life documented and being told flat out NO!
Well this is what is happening time and time again when a mother chooses to or is required to have their baby via cesarean section. We aren't talking emergency/crash situations here, we are talking well planned weeks, even months in advance procedures. Often the birthing mothers are given the go ahead and at the last minute being told "NO NO this isn't happening"
Still on the fence and don't think it is all that important? Let's put it this way
It's you wedding day, you are about to get ready and then someone says "Sorry you can't have your professional photographer but it's okay, that guest over there can take some photos on his mobile phone"
Or your getting family photos, maybe someone is un well and don't have much time left you are on location ready to go and then there's a "sorry no professional photos for you, just take some on your phone, you'll be right you'll still remember them"
Being denied in both those situations is just ludicrous so why should a cesarean birth be any different!
Please get behind me, have read, sign and share this petition!
