the dawa family

You may remember this couple and this absolutely beyond fabulous location from a shoot last summer. They were expecting their very first baby and were so gracious in letting us use their home and grounds for a photoshoot for one of their friends/my clients and while we were there, I took a few pictures of them too. They live on an old estate on the North Shore where the husband is the estate manager among other things. This place is really, completely drool worthy. It’s about a 5 minute ride from the gate up to their house and I seriously could cry it’s so gorgeous there. The grounds are huge (really huge)  and a photographers dream.

And then, I saw the baby. Oh my. He’s gorgeous. His parents are from the middle east (dad) and Sweden (mom). Like the Irish/El Salvador combination, it’s a winner!!

Part of the grounds to which I was referring earlier.  This is grandma who was visiting from Sweden. She was a huge help with getting the smiles! What a happy boy! And I was informed that this happy boy will grow up speaking no less than 4 languages. He’s already got 3 covered.  Again, right outside their house!  Pot ‘o baby anyone? He wasn’t so sure about this shot, but when his mom plopped him in the giant flower pot without me even asking, I knew this family was right up my alley!! (as if the location wasn’t enough) So great seeing you all again and meeting baby G. He was a pleasure and thank you again for inviting me back to your amazing home!
