10 Incredibly Moving Photos That Capture The Beauty Of C-Section Births


There’s truly nothing more breathtaking than the way babies come into the world, and the photographers who capture these precious, empowering, and completely incredible moments are able to give us all a look into intimate birth scenes we would otherwise never have been privy to.

Every year, Birth Becomes Her, an international community of birth photographers founded by Monet Nicole and Jennifer Mason, hosts a birth photography contest in which these incredible photographers from all over the globe may enter their work to be judged in particular categories.

Even though they can’t all be winners, every single submission to the contest was absolutely stunning. So, witness the magic of life, the power, and the strength of these amazing women giving birth.
Every delivery is personal and sacred. And bringing a human into the world via C-section is every bit as awesome as giving birth any other way.
