Bigger India
Birth photography is gradually finding takers in India
The most fulfilling moment for birth photographers is when they hand over the photographs to new moms.
The first glimpse of the baby’s head, the umbilical cord getting cut, the baby’s first cry, and parents holding their newborn in their arms for the first time – these are the moments that that have created a spuper-speciality called photography.
“Almost always when I show the couple the photographs of childbirth they start crying with joy. The mother sees in pictures what she felt,” said Maayan Gutgold, a Delhi-based birth photographer.
