Don't say, women don't multi-task. Christa is an amazing photographer in her own right. But she takes it to a new level, by photographing the birth of her own daughter, with her husband delivering their baby girl!

Unbelievable! And, yes, multi-tasking to the nth degree!!!

No way would I give my wife any type of potential missile to throw at me during child birth. :)

yep, I'm photographing my own wedding. but kudos to them!

ok - i went back and re-read her story. seeing as how her hubby is a practicing family doc - she must've gotten "hooked up" on her epidural. She was laughing!! and shooting as she was in labor! Oh my dog. I should count myself so lucky.

Things like this just remind me of Dr. Johnson's quip about the dog and the woman preacher.

I'm glad my wife didn't want to do this during the C-section to deliver our youngest son. It would have taken a strategically placed mirror to accomplish it, and I'm sure I would either have fainted or barfed all over the anethesiologist (I hear they charge extra for that).
