Photographer Paula Galvão, from Natal, Brazil, captures the special first moments in a baby’s life. Meanwhile, one moving picture shows a woman in the hours before giving birth, kneeling on the floor and holding onto her partner for support while having contractions. Paula, 39, started taking pictures like this after giving birth to her own daughter, Ingrid, now 17. She said she works all hours of the day because the baby can come anywhere, anytime, but feels ‘very happy and fulfilled by her job,’ explaining how ‘every birth brings a different emotіoп’.
