Coenraad and Anchené are our good friends from South Africa. While visiting them in their new home town, Brooks, I offered to do a family session for them. Amelia, their sweet nine month old’s grandparents had only seen her once. I share the longing and heartbreak as we are pretty much in the same situation as them. We don’t know when we’ll be able to see our families again.

As a Mother’s Day gift to myself, I recently did a Motherhood Session of Amélie and me. I sent my mom the digitals and within days she had them printed and framed.

I wanted to give the Harris family the same gift. Although the grandparents aren’t physically here for this stage, they are still able to witness every detail of their grandchild’s growing up. The little dimples in their hands, their chubby thunder thighs and the spark in their big eyes. And of course, a beautiful picture to put on the wall.
