Mufunwa ➳ Newborn by Abigail Smith

Welcoming Mufunwa into the world was an absolute joy to capture. This tiny, sweet baby boy melted hearts the moment he was wrapped snugly in his swaddle, looking so peaceful and content. There’s something so special about photographing newborns—their delicate features, tiny fingers and toes, and the sense of wonder they bring to the world.

Mufunwa gave us such a treat during his session: a few rare and precious open-eyed moments. It was as if he was taking it all in, curious about the new world around him. His gaze was steady and filled with a quiet wisdom beyond his days—a moment I know his family will cherish forever.

Swaddled in soft fabrics, Mufunwa looked so cozy and serene, and the simplicity of the session highlighted just how perfect he is. There’s beauty in the details: the tiny wrinkles on his hands, the soft curve of his cheeks, and the way he fit so perfectly into this brand-new role in his family.

To Mufunwa’s family, thank you for trusting me to capture these first, fleeting moments of your little one’s life. I hope these images remind you of just how tiny and precious he was in these early days, a treasure to hold close as he grows and discovers the world around him

Noah ➳ Newborn Swaddle Session by Abigail Smith

Welcoming a new life into the world is always a special moment, and baby Noah’s newborn session was nothing short of extraordinary. His name, rooted in meaning and history, evokes a sense of calm and strength—a perfect match for this sweet, peaceful little boy.

Noah was such an easy baby to photograph. He slept soundly through most of the session, his tiny fingers curling delicately, his soft features glowing with innocence. Watching him in the arms of his loving parents was heartwarming. Their adoration for their son filled the room with an overwhelming sense of tenderness and connection.

Noah’s name carries a promise of hope and a future filled with adventure. It’s a privilege to freeze these fleeting moments—the kind of memories his parents will treasure forever.

Welcome to the world, Noah. You are already so deeply loved, and I can’t wait to see the incredible life you will lead.

Sisekelo's session was an absolute delight from start to finish, wrapped snugly in soft, cosy swaddles, she was the picture of peace and serenity, but she did give me some wonderful open-eyed shots.

Sobahle ➳ Swaddle Session by Abigail Smith

Babies, with their adorable squishy cheeks and tiny toes, are a photographer's dream – or so we think! This little star decided that sleep was definitely not on the agenda. Despite my best efforts this little bundle just wasn't having it!

But you know what? That's okay! Because even though we didn't get the sleepy, perfectly posed shots we were hoping for, we still captured some incredibly sweet moments as a reminder of the preciousness of those early days.

So, even if your little one decides to stay wide awake during their swaddle session (trust me, it happens more often than you'd think!), remember that every moment is precious. Whether they're snoozing soundly or wide-eyed and curious, these photos are a celebration of the love and joy that fills your home.
