As you may know by now, casual and relaxed family sessions are one of my favorite kinds of shoots. I get to go into someones house, get to know them a bit, and capture everyone relaxing and interacting in the place where they feel most comfortable-home.
The Mercados welcomed a new baby boy into the family a few weeks ago, making them a family of six! It is definitely a happy home, with love and joy in every hug, kiss and smile.
We started the session with baby A, who was fast asleep when I arrived:
Baby toes!
Soon after, his big brothers and sister joined us, fighting over who got to hold the baby.
I adore freckles.
This little guy needed a bit longer to warm up to me.
We did a special shot of everyones favorite toys, with a little mischief going on in the background:

I always love to include the family art gallery:
They fell for all my jokes:

Another fav:
And we are back where we started, with baby A asleep in his swing. Is that a smile I see? Beautiful.
I forgot to say goodbye to all the kids when I left that day. I hope you know how much I enjoyed spending time with all of you!
You really caught the essence of this family. Beautiful.
