Making a video and taking pictures of your delivery and labor, thoughts?

Question

Answer

Answer

I had pictures done and they are my favprite pictures ever. The moment they laid her on my chest was by far the best moment of my life and to have a picture of that is amazing. She got pictures of of the laughter, pain, the support of my fiance, and the tears of joy at the end. She was quite and didnt make it known and honestly I forgot she was there once I was pushing.
