there's a brother on the way! I am always happy to hear from Rumana. I have been photographing her and her family since Aayan was 6 months old. I photographed him again at one year old. This time, with another on the way, she asked for a few maternity shots as well as a session for Aayan's second birthday.

When I arrived, her husband Safraz took little Aayan upstairs for wardrobe prep while we shot a few photos in some lovely window light in her home. Before long, we heard the beep beep beeping of a car locking and unlocking. There was a pause. A moment of silence while Rumana thought and listened. Then he called upstairs, "Safraz! He has your keys!"

I have my favorite pictures of them, too.
