Theodore

It was so lovely having Theodore and his lovely family in the studio for their first official studio photos. Theodore had a wrapped mini session with sibling photos. Theodores big brother and sister couldn’t have been more loving and proud of their new arrival. Theodore looks adorable in all the photos but I think the bucket shot with Teddy in the bear hat might be my favourite!
