I loved meeting Lucca for the first time at my studio where I reacquainted myself with his siblings and parents – all of whom I have photographed many times, but I must admit that each time its a wee bit different and whole lot sweeter. There is no greater honor in my photography life than getting to be a part of a family from the start – from wedding day to first born, and with this family on to second and third and fourth. While I usually photograph newborns at home, Lucca’s session needed a bit of breathing space so my studio fit the bill. Lucca was born in the season of holidays and family gatherings, the newest addition to a family already full of love and laughter and the kind of craziness 3 kids bring to a household. Bringing the family tally up to 4 kids though, means that he holds a special place in each and every heart at home. The little brother, the baby, the youngest, Lucca might also be the Luckiest. So many playmates, so many arms to cuddle him close, so much of everything a baby needs – and it’s all his.
