In a delightful twist on traditional birth photography, a couple has taken the internet by storm with their hilarious and heartwarming kitten ‘birth’ photos. Who says that only human babies deserve to be celebrated with professional photography? This sentiment was certainly not echoed by photographers Emma Grant and her partner, who recently adopted a shelter kitten and decided to document the occasion in a truly unique way.
Their friend, fellow photographer Mia Thompson, was on hand to capture the joy of this new family addition. Emma shared the stunning series on her social media, aptly titled “Welcome to the Family.” From faux contractions to the big reveal of tiny paws, their playful parody left no detail overlooked.
Mia explained to us how this creative idea came to fruition: “Emma and I are both photographers and close friends. We’ve collaborated on various projects before, including human births, which inspired us to take on this whimsical endeavor.” The result? An array of pictures that perfectly blend humor and artistry, showcasing a disheveled new ‘mom’ cradling her kitten in a cozy hospital blanket.
Among the highlights are moments of ‘checking’ whether their new arrival is a boy or girl, and adorable close-ups that showcase the kitten’s tiny features. It’s clear that Emma and Mia approached this project with lightheartedness and fun, capturing the essence of joy that comes with welcoming a new furry family member.
In an unexpected turn of events, the photos went viral, leaving the duo astonished by the overwhelming response. “We honestly didn’t think it would catch on like this. It’s surreal!” they admitted, laughing about the extra deodorant they’ve had to use over the past few days.
