The Photos From This C-Section Birth Are Absolutely Beautiful

Blomerus Photography

For Charné and her husband, this pregnancy was a gift — after experiencing loss, Lily would be the first child for the couple, and would be joining their beautiful blended family.

For photographer Marysol Blomerus, this session was important — because it was a C-section birth, she wanted to be able to capture every moment for Charné so that she didn't feel as if she'd missed anything while she was in recovery, which included some amazing skin-to-skin time between the baby and her daddy.

I know especially for moms that are for what ever reason separated from their babies even for 20 minutes, they long to know what they missed. As much as possible, I follow baby for this very reason to capture those irreplaceable first moments. Lily will always look back and see clearly she was beloved from the day she was born.

Read on to see photos and watch the video — which includes the sweet moment between Lily and daddy — of the C-section birth, and meet baby Lily.
