Emotional Birth Photos Document Mother and Baby’s First Moments Together

Birth photographer Paula Galvão’s breathtaking photos capture the tender moments between a mum and her new baby.

These beautiful, raw moments reveal the wonder of new mums bringing their babies into the world.

Birth photographer Paula Galvão’s breathtaking photos show newborns delivered by doctors, crying as they take their first breaths.

This is the tender moment a baby is born and places on his mum to meet her

One extraordinary shot shows a baby born via C-sᴇᴄᴛɪᴏɴ, still encased in the ᴀᴍɴɪᴏᴛɪᴄ sᴀᴄ.

Another shows a woman in the ᴘᴀɪɴꜰᴜʟ throes of ʟᴀʙᴏʀ, holding on to her partner for support following a ᴄᴏɴᴛʀᴀᴄᴛɪᴏɴ.

But when the ᴘᴀɪɴꜰᴜʟ marathon is over, Paula captures those tender moments between a mum and her new baby as they meet for the first time.

Paula, from Brazil, started to take photos of women in ʟᴀʙᴏʀ after the birth of her own daughter, Ingrid, now 17.

“I am very happy and fulfilled. Each birth brings a different emotion,” she said.

The 39-year-old has always been interested in photography and began working in her father’s studio when she was 16.

Following family tradition – her father, brother and grandfather are all photographers – Paula went on to become a children’s photographer.

Then, in February 2001, Paula welcomed Ingrid into the world and invited her father to take pictures of the birth.

A few days later she saw the pictures and the emotions she felt giving birth came flooding back.

In that moment, Paula decided she wanted to do the same for other parents.

Paula took her first delivery room picture in October 2004 and hasn’t looked back.
