A very Autunmal Newborn Session in Bristol

The day started with huge black clouds rolling across the sky and my hopes of a beautiful sunny late afternoon session were becoming more bleak by the hour, especially when those clouds erupted on my dog walk and got me absolutely soaked, but we decided to be brave and go ahead with the session, as those newborn moments are so brief and thankfully we were rewarded! By the time I was driving into the Bristol the clouds disappeared and that glorious golden Autumnal sunlight was streaming over the road. By the time I met with my family the shafts of light were streaking through the trees just perfectly and we congratulated ourselves on persevering and being rewarded grandly!

We walked through St.Georges Park which I reminisced about having trodden those same paths as a first time mum when Theo was just one. The hours I’d spent trying to get him to sleep in the pram, the first plays at the park and spending time there as a family. As a city park goes, it’s such a lovely one. We wandered off the path to find a quiet little area (luckily though the rain seemed to have kept a lot of people home!) full of fallen leaves and the light falling just right. As the sun was starting to set we headed back to their home for some sweet baby detail shots and of course to give this dreamy sleepy girl some milk.

The whole session was just perfect, nothing was rushed or awkward and I got to witness two brand new parents experience the magic and joy that is loving on your brand new baby and being obsessed with every detail of them. Definitely something to capture to remember forever.
