“It is understood that the beauty of a rainbow does not negate the ravages of any storm.
When a rainbow appears, it does not mean the storm never happened or that we are not still dealing with it’s aftermath.
It means that something beautiful and full of light has appeared in the midst of the darkness and clouds. Storm clouds may still hover, but the rainbow provides a counterbalance of color, energy, and hope.”

Govenders ➳ Family Portraits /  by Abigail Smith

Through this lockdown I have learned that there are so many things I am capable of living without… but family and friends are the necessities of life. Their support, love and kindness are invaluable during difficult times. Thinking of all the families and this one in particular who are not able to physically be together during lockdown, grateful though that through technology we are able to keep in touch.

You never have to wait for a momentous occasion to capture special memories with your family. Mom has always wanted to have portraits done with her family and with having to wait 7 years for their new baby it was a momentous occasion! They are a sweet, close and loving family who love to laugh and Brian is probably going to be the most incredible brother in the world, he’s already so in love with Elkin.

Amelie ➳ Newborn Portraits /  by Abigail Smith

My last newborn session before lockdown :( I was really looking forward to doing an in-hospital “Fresh 48” session with Amelie and her beautiful family but unfortunately hospital policies became stricter and it wasn’t possible, so we ended up doing a quick session in my studio with her and her family. Amelie is just 4 days new here and isn’t she such a pretty baby?
