10+ Powerful Shots Of Delivery Room Dads That Will Make You Appreciate Your Dad Even More

For those of you who didn’t know, yesterday was a Father’s Day in many countries around the world. And to commemorate it, we bring you some of the most powerful shots by pro photographers taken at the very first moments when dads become dads.

These photos taken in the delivery rooms will make you laugh, cry, but most importantly they’ll remind you, if you ever needed reminding, what a special feeling it is to witness or to even take part in bringing life to the world. Darn it, I think I got something in my eye…

And let’s not forget the brave moms who even got a Birth Photos Competition dedicated to them.
