I have been so fortunate to photograph this family several times and I am blown away whenever we get together. If a picture speaks a thousand words, then this session sings a million of them.
A mama and her girls.
The sun.
The love.
Perfection.
Mr. Jackson. So handsome. So perfect.
This mama-to-be was so lovely to work with.
Kind and funny, and so eager to meet her little boy.
If he's anything like his mom, he's going to have the biggest heart.
People contact me sometimes concerned that their baby is "too old" to have their photos taken. It's true that those sleepy newborn poses can only really be achieved in the first couple of weeks after a baby is born, but by no means are babies too old to be photographed after that! No matter what the age - whether they are 2 weeks, 2 months, or 12 months old - our babies are still our babies and those fleeting moments should be preserved. Handsome Jack's mom contacted me when he was almost 8 weeks old - several weeks outside of the typical newborn photography window, but still amazing and adorably handsome as can be.
We discussed how an older baby's session is different, but still wonderful, and decided to wait a few weeks more to take his photos when he began smiling more often. It's not often that I get the opportunity to do lifestyle sessions or photograph 3 month olds, so getting to do both in one session was such a treat. Little Jack had such fun with his parents and I had a wonderful time meeting all of them.
I hope you all had a wonderful first Mother's Day weekend together!
I had such a fun time during this session. Not only was baby Rhys a dream, but big brother Ewan came and played with me for a little while too. That kiddo is a hide and seek champion. These two brothers are going to be a riot as they grow up together. I imagine endless laughter, lots of games, and heaps of brotherly love are in this family's future. Congratulations again the arrival of your newest little guy O family!
