On His One-Month Day, Everyone Who Matters Was Home

He turned one month old.
We chose a sunny day and photographed everything at home.

Soft light came through the curtains,
balloons moved gently in the air,
his parents leaned close, smiling down at him,
and the family dog appeared naturally in the frame.

Nothing was carefully arranged.
We simply documented life at this stage,
honestly and as it was.

Surrounded by his parents’ love
and the presence of this home,
he will grow—at his own perfect pace.
