This organisation is amazing! Professional photographers giving up their time in their already busy lives to drop what they are doing and travel (sometimes hours) to take photographic memories for families so they have something to cherish and look back and remember for years to come.
We felt incredibly blessed by our Heartfelt photographer. Babies that are born as young as Ava's gestation and size are not usually photographed by Heartfelt. Ava was weeks youger and hundreds of grams smaller so we were incredibly lucky to have the photographer respond to us.
She showed us and Ava so much care during the session. I was quite sick when she arrived so wasn't able to stand or do much, but she quietly went about what she had come to do and listened to us and Ava's story. She dressed And undressed Ava as I was too sick to do it and wrapped her and held her. I was amazed at her compassion in what must have been confronting circumstances. She took almost 60 photos and they are extraordinary - she managed to capture Ava's beauty amongst devastation and the details that her photographs show would be award winning. Every tiny detail, including her fingernails and knuckles, to her tiny lips and nose, as well as her ears were all captured for us.
Our photographer came to us in our time of greatest need and did such a wonderful job.
Thankyou to our photographer and to everyone who volunteers their time to the wonderful organisation of Heartfelt. Please never underestimate the gift you are giving to the families you meet.
