"Forever Loved": the story that is moving the whole world
The photographer, author of this series of shots, is called Lindsey Villatoro and her company, a photographic memory to leave to one's family or friends. But sometimes it happens that Lindsey finds herself shooting even those who have recently passed away. And this is what happened with Emily and Richard Staley, a couple who wanted Lindsay to be present after their baby was born dead.
Emily discovered 10 weeks before her due date that the baby had died in her womb from the umbilical cord, which had coiled around the baby's neck. A friend of Emily's decided to contact Lindsey after hearing the bad news and the photographer didn't hesitate for a moment. The day of the caesarean, planned to deliver the baby Monroe Faith Staley, Lindsey spent the few hours they spent with their baby with her parents, crying, giving support to the couple and taking these pictures that were shared online in memory of the little girl at the request of the Staleys themselves, who said they wanted to send a message to all those who have lost a child: "You are not alone'.
