Maline ➳ Swaddle Session by Abigail Smith

There is something truly divine about a newborn baby — a quiet, sacred energy that fills the room and reminds us of just how miraculous life really is. When I photographed baby Maline, I felt that deep sense of wonder again. So tiny, so perfect, and still so close to the heavens she came from.

Her session was bathed in soft pinks and creamy whites — gentle tones that mirrored her peaceful presence and innocence.

These early days slip by so quickly. The sleepy yawns, the tiny fingers, the delicate eyelashes — they change in the blink of an eye. And yet, these are the moments we most long to remember.

Dear mama-to-be,

I know it may feel like there are a thousand things to do before baby arrives. But trust me — this time is sacred, and your newborn deserves to be celebrated and remembered in a way that feels just as sacred.

A newborn session is more than just photos. It’s a moment of pause. A way to honour this incredible life you’ve brought into the world. It’s a way to remember how it all began — when love first took form in your arms.

Let Maline’s session be a soft reminder: your baby’s first days are a once-in-a-lifetime moment. Let’s hold onto them, beautifully.

Kwenama ➳ Newborn by Abigail Smith

Welcome to the World, Kwenama

There’s something holy about the stillness of a sleeping newborn.

During Kwenama’s session, time seemed to slow down. He slept so peacefully—curled into gentle poses. As I watched him dream, I couldn’t help but be reminded of how sacred life is when it begins.

Kwenama, your name already carries weight. It means “He who brings peace,” and your presence did just that. In a world that often feels noisy and chaotic, you were a quiet reminder that calm still exists. You reminded me that each soul arrives with its own energy, its own rhythm, its own divine light.

You may be small now, but within you are gifts the world has never seen before. Talents that will unfold in their own time. A voice that will one day speak truth. A heart that will love deeply. And a spirit that is already radiating peace.

To your parents—thank you for allowing me into this sacred space with you. It’s such a privilege to witness this chapter of your story.

May your days with Kwenama be filled with wonder. May you always remember these first quiet moments—where nothing needed to be said, because his very presence was enough.

Welcome to the world, sweet boy. You are already so loved.
