Paula, from Brazil, started to take photos of women in labour after the birth of her own daughter, Ingrid, now 17.
“I am very happy and fulfilled. Each birth brings a different emotіoп,” she said.
The 39-year-old has always been interested in photography and began working in her father’s studio when she was 16.
Following family tradition — her father, brother and grandfather are all photographers — Paula went on to become a children’s photographer.
