The perfect picture is a wonderful portrayal of a father’s emotions when he holds his rainbow baby in his arms for the first time, make the world are in emotion.
Child ʟᴏss is something that no parent wants to have to experience. It was the most ᴘᴀɪɴFᴜʟ thing for the parents, who were very excited and happy to have a baby in their life. Then hope and look forward to the day you are born.
For that reason, having a child after an earlier ʟᴏss takes on an entirely different level of poignancy. After the ᴘᴀɪɴ of ʟᴏss, happiness and luck finally came when the couple, Hunter and Hope Madden, welcomed their rainbow baby. Recently they celebrated the birth of their daughter after prolonged fertility sᴛʀᴜɢɢʟᴇs and several ᴍɪsᴄᴀʀʀɪᴀɢᴇs. The Maddens’ birth photos are making waves on the internet.
Hunter Madden spoke about the anxiety the couple had experienced leading up to Evelyn’s birth, with every doctor’s visit rife with “fear and slowly cautious optimism” about the pregnancy making it to term. Hope echoed his thoughts: “We were very much prepared for the worst And I think my entire pregnancy was that way.”
The joy and relief of finally meeting their baby girl, born healthy, is palpable in all of the images of Evelyn’s birth, captured by Austin, Texas-based birth photographer Leilani Rogers. One portrait, of Hunter holding his baby girl to his bare chest and breaking down in tears, is particularly stirring. In the photo, Hunter’s tribute tattoo for his son — a tree with an anchor at the bottom — is visible as he holds his baby close.
Hunter said “I could not believe I was allowed to hold something so perfect and I was overwhelmed with thanksgiving for finally getting to be a father.”
