I will admit, family photography isn't my usual forte, but when a familiar face from a past shoot reached out, I just couldn't resist! This session marked our second collaboration, following their first son's christening, and preceding a joyful baby shower for their second child that would come later.

Set against the backdrop of Brookfield Place, both indoors and outdoors, we braved the crisp autumn breeze to immortalize their growing family. Despite the chilly weather, their radiant smiles and complementing outfits added warmth to every frame.

From playful interactions to tender embraces, each shot encapsulated the joy and anticipation of welcoming a new addition to their family that they intending on using for the Christmas cards.

Here are some of my favorite images from this shoot (click/tap to view full-size and un-cropped):
