Beautiful home newborn photo session | Anesmae
I watch as her family swoon over her. Mom and dad, Anstea and Mario, seem confident, comfortable and calm when handling the delicate little newborn form. The subtle hesitation and uncertainty that all new parents experience are no longer present. Four years ago, they gained all the hands-on experience they needed with their first born. Now, it just happens naturally.
This in-home Newborn Session was everything it ought to have been. At just two weeks old, Anesmae is the epitome of newborn cuteness! Folds of soft, pink skin; big, glassy eyes brimming with wonder; a vast array of facial expressions and hand gestures that make your heart melt…!
Big sis, Anna-Mae, can barely fit her little sister on her small lap. She’s but a baby herself, standing on the brink of a lifetime of shared secrets, giggles, adventures and friendship. It’s as if her enormous smile encapsulates all of this, although I doubt she understands the magnitude of the bond that will undoubtedly form between herself and her sister.
I cannot believe she’s four years old! I was there when she was just a baby bump; when she took her first breath; when her parents held her for the first time; when she was a tiny newborn, soft, pink and glassy-eyed. Documenting the same memories for her sister has been magical. And capturing the first time they met each other was especially wonderful!
Anstea and Mario received all the images from their forest Maternity Session, c-section birth and in-hospital Meet the Family Session, as well as this gorgeous in-home Newborn Session within just a month. They still have their heirloom photo album to look forward to (scroll down to see a couple of my favourite spreads)!
How incredible to walk this long, beautiful journey with such lovely people?! I can imagine these two little girls pouring over these photos years from now…
