"To the world you may be one person, but to that one person you may be the world."
This shoot, for me, was such a needed reminder what gifts life gives us. It was a healing session. I'm always talking about how pictures can mean the world to a family. For me, this picture of this grandfather and his brand new grandson means the world. It is amazing how one little life can remind us how amazing this world can be. The happiness, the love, the hope...
Welcome to the world little guy ;)
These are beautiful, the lighting is just perfect. What wonderful, artistic images for this family.
