THE FIRST BORN SON

There is something sacred about the season of a first child. Life feels both brand new and deeply familiar all at the same time. The weight of tiny hands in yours. The soft rhythm of their breath against your chest. The way they look up at you as though you are their whole world, because you truly are.

This session unfolded slowly, like a memory.
Sunlight pouring in. Dress swaying. His laughter echoing between the pillars. A mother and father discovering their rhythm, gentle and joyful and full of wonder. Their very first chapter of parenthood, captured in the quiet and in the in between moments that time often tries to blur.

Heirloom Sessions are created with the intention of lasting beyond a lifetime. Each one includes a sweet and thoughtfully edited video paired with fine art photographs, movement and sound and expression woven together as a treasure to keep forever. A piece of their story preserved in a way that will still feel alive years from now, and someday passed into his hands when he is grown.

Photographs remind us where it all began, who we once held, and how deeply we were loved.

This is their first son. Their first chapter.
A love story just beginning.

An heirloom to look back on forever.
