Maternity sessions like the one I did for Melissa are always so sweet but I have to say that seeing mamas a few weeks later with their new little bundles of joy just melt my heart! Especially this mama! It was a joy to see how excited she is about her little boy’s arrival into the world. I loved seeing her interact with him during our in-home newborn session. Seeing a mother with her first child is just so magical. Enjoy some of my favorites from our session, starting with the little peanut in an aviator hat by Kukookat Creations. I had it made a few months ago and was so happy that I finally got the opportunity to use it. It fit him perfectly!
Nothing like a little art to complete this post! I loved that mommy incorporated artwork into the session. Her friend Franck De Las Mercedes started a unique art series that is so unique and wanted it represented in this special gift to her baby. Quoted from his website:
” The Priority Boxes Art Project: A Message of Peace and Hope
With labels that read “Fragile Contains:Peace, Love or Hope”, visual artist Franck de Las Mercedes sends abstractly painted, seemingly empty boxes to anybody, anywhere in the world.
The “Priority Boxes” project is a public art series that seeks to initiate dialogue on peace, challenge people to reconsider their ability to influence change and question the fragility, value and priority given to those concepts. Each box, sent by mail to anyone who requests one, is both a canvas for a unique abstract painting and a platform for communication through art. A mixture of art and activism, the boxes are sent free to convey that something of such priority as peace should not have a price and that art can be both inclusive and accessible to all. From his small New Jersey studio, the artist has sent over 12,000 boxes around the globe, to countries in every continent.”
