I’m Gillian! I’m a family photographer who is obsessed with capturing not just the major milestones, but all the in-between moments that make up your family life. Most of my clients stay with me from maternity sessions through to annual family photos, and I love getting to know each family and documenting the unique ways they grow and change over the years.
In the heart of Dallas, at Baylor Scott & White Hospital, I got to capture a sweet story. The parents eagerly awaited arrival of the first baby for a couple who had traversed the journey of parenthood in great anticipation and prayer. This special moment was immortalized through a Fresh 48 session, capturing the essence of their unique style, and the precious details of their newborn.
The couple’s unique style shone through with a preference for darker tones and an abundance of black in their attire. Bringing parents vision to life is always something that is so touching to me. The deep hues and rich contrasts added a touch of sophistication to the images, reflecting the individuality of the couple.
His arrival marked the beginning of a new chapter for the family, and every detail was imbued with significance. The session within the hallowed walls of the Hospital, provided an intimate glimpse into the first hours of his life. The room, though overcast outside, was illuminated with soft, natural light filtering through the hospital window, creating a cozy and soulful ambiance.
Capturing the tiny details became a focal point of the session. I loved getting to capture his delicate toes and feet and his tiny hands. Each photograph served as a time capsule, freezing those fleeting moments, and allowing the couple to revisit the beauty of their newborn’s first hours.
The joy and gratitude of the couple were palpable throughout the session. Milo Mar was not just a baby; he was a manifestation of hope, prayers, and dreams fulfilled. The images reflected the depth of their emotions; from tender moments of bonding to the overwhelming sense of awe at the miracle of life.
Despite the overcast weather, the hospital room became a haven of warmth and love. The hospital room window provided just enough natural light to infuse the images with a soft glow. The glow accentuating the intimacy of the family’s first moments together.
As Milo Mar’s parents cradled their newborn with love and pride, the images spoke a universal language of parenthood. A language that transcends words and resonates with the shared experience of welcoming a new life into the world.
In the heart of Dallas, within the walls of the hospital, this fresh 48 session unfolded as a testament to the power of love, the beauty of anticipation, and the profound joy of new beginnings.
