William entered the world at 13:58 on Saturday in Hvidovre hospital, Denmark, and I'm proud to have been there to witness it. His parents are Maryna and Olexandr, my friends, really good people and happy family.
I was dreaming about take pictures of birth. It's a compliment for me to be there so close to this family.
Thank you, Maryna and Olexandr, for trusting me to record such emotional and powerful moments. I hope these photos will always be meaningful to you and William.
Birth is beautiful. Even during her most agonizing pain, Maryna was with the man who loved her. I couldn't help, but cry to see such beauty. When she finally saw her baby, Maryna's happiness filled the whole room.
It was amazing to see when parents held the son for the first time.
It was unreal and cool, that I could document the first moments of that special relationship.

I love birth photography.
If you or someone you know is having a baby in the Copenhagen - Malmo area, I'd love to be able to photograph your baby's first moments. Please contact me at photo@natalydauer.com if you're interested.
