Part of my job includes designing and creating the settings that best show off your little bundle of joy! I find such joy in this part of my work, and am always careful to choose a special palette for each baby. For this one, I chose rich, pretty shades of dark plum and light mint, and they were so perfect for baby Kathryn.  We also utilized my favorite setup (the classic, naturally lit floral bed) for some extra special photos of the baby with her devoted big sister. “Our daughter’s name is Kathryn Jean, but we call her Kate. She was named after my husband’s mother and my grandmother, who passed away two years ago”, explains mom, “My grandmother and I were very close.” Kate was born at eight pounds, twelve ounces in July, and during mom’s pregnancy, the family relocated to Texas from California.

“While she was in my tummy, she flew on planes, hiked, traveled for four different states ,and went to Disneyland”, adds mom, “We are so happy to have her in our family. Ava, her big sister is amazing with her. She is very attentive and protected of her, and treats her like her real-life baby doll!” Adding to her new adventures, Kate also endured the recent rains and flooding of Hurricane Harvey…I think she will be quite the brave little girl when she grows up! Mom and dad also shared that their great reward for parenting is all the love, and that at the end of the day, there is always unconditional love in their family.

I think I captured a lot of that sweet bond in these images. Enjoy Kate’s stunning gallery:
