Mom Photographs Her Own Labor And The Photos Will Amaze You
Lisa Robinson-Ward is a professional photographer who takes her job very seriously indeed. In fact, so dedicated is she to her profession that she even photographed the birth of her own daughter, and the results are as extraordinary as you’d imagine.
The California-based photographer, who already has a 9-year-old son, had been trying to conceive again for years, but after suffering two miscarriages she and her husband decided to stop trying. It therefore came as a huge surprise when Lisa realized she was pregnant again, and ever the true photographer, the new mom-to-be decided to document her experience of labor and delivery.
She says the idea originally began as a joke, but after some thought she decided to give it a try. “I was pretty flexible with the plan,” she told ABC News. “If it became impossible I was fine with not doing it but fortunately I had a really easy and amazing birth experience.” She gave birth to a daughter, who she named Anora, and you can see her remarkable photographs below.

Share on FacebookBravo to her for feeling like taking pictures during her birth. Mine were not that easy. My photos would have been blurry and at one point the camera would have been tossed somewhere. Lol. The baby is adorable!
The baby girl is so beautiful,,,,, that little face looking straight at the camera. Wonderful memories.
She must have had an epidural or some kind of pain meds. There's no way U could do this without being pain free. Seriously I could barely concentrate on friends (the tv show) while giving birth let alone know what a camera is and be able to use it. Fair dos to her tho
I'm surprised the baby's eyes were open so soon. But what do I know...does that happen often?
Always lol. Humans aren't like dogs and cats :D
Load More Replies...I was in far more pain when having my second child that with my first just under a year before and ended up having an epidural. When the time came for him to be born I asked if one of the nurse could find a mirror. She held up it at the right angle on my direction and I was able to see my son coming into the world. He was 5 minutes old when he had his first photo taken. He will be 27 on 24 July.
is she the cutest baby or what ?? i mean newborns usually look like potato but this one is really really cute and pretty . so pretty.
I think it is amazing. Photos as well as the fact of mother in labour actually taking photos her self. Inspirational destruction from pain....Great job. Love all the photos, apecialy the excitement of the FATHER. All the best to you all.
Amazing! I don't think there is anything strange about it. I bet it helped her take her mind off of it all! Well done mama!
Do all babies have that much hair? The baby is beautiful either way!
Both of my kids had thick, dark curls. Over time they turned lighter... dirty blonde. I've only got 2 but their hair and the heartburn is a reminder that I was blessed with 2 babies with thick hair.
