My First birth shoot | Newborn photography

Upon deciding to do this shoot there were a few things that I needed to consider: was I going to faint? throw up? lose my lens on the operating table? slip? Would there be sufficient lighting?…. I was just about to crack under the pressure at the thought of this shoot.  Finally, it was the day of the shoot, I arrived at the ward feeling anxious and not quite knowing what to expect. Thankfully Mitesh helped me with directions as I am hopeless when it comes to finding my way. I got to meet the most helpful videographer I have ever met( those of you that know me will know what awful experiences I seem to have with video people).  However she told me that I wasn’t allowed any bags- that meant I could only take 1 lens. I was defiantly not prepared for this. The anxiety turned into a terrible knot in my stomach. Which of my lenses was I to leave behind? Eventually I made the decision and it was smooth sailing from then onwards. The whole experience turned out to be totally amazing, one of the best experiences of my life. I even got to wear scrubs, which was fun, being the huge greys fan I am…;)
