Newborn during Social Distancing :: a ray of light comes into the world

With everything that has been going on, it’s been hard to find positivity, let alone envision the future. This beautiful mama was heartbroken there would be no photos of her first child’s first days on earth - until we worked out a wonderful system to keep everyone safe and at a distance, while capturing these precious moments that will never come again. Their cul-de-sac was private and empty. They put out a brand new, sealed, hospital mask for me near their front steps. We spent just 15 minutes, at least 10 feet apart, on their front porch and capture over 40 unforgettable photos. I used my sharp, L-series telephoto zoom lens to get up close and personal from so far away. This little baby’s smile and his parents’ love put a smile on my face and hope in my future.
