Title: Celebrating baby Ella

From engagement gift to baby announcement, this project holds a special place in my heart. Originally commissioned to create a portrait capturing a couple's romantic Vespa proposal in Italy, featuring their cherished adopted cat Susie. With the couple already expecting baby Ella, the portrait became an even more poignant symbol of their journey.

Happy as they were with the original portrait, the asked me for a second assignment: a follow-up portrait / birth announcement of baby Ella's arrival, complete with her adorable heart-patterned romper. I'm grateful for the opportunity to capture the infectious happiness of this lovely growing family.
