Natives to the Bay Area, Lex and Grant appreciated the fog that swept in from the S.F. Bay for their maternity photography session. It brought a beautiful closeness and quietness to these photographs commemorating the couple's first passage into parenthood. We walked along the beach at Crissy Field with them, the inevitable future location of innumerable picnics and birthday parties, and stopped at the pier to take photos: a wonderful scene with the boardwalk extending out into the horizon, a symbol of their future together. We can't wait for little Catherine Leigh to grow up and see these photos of herself still in her kangaroo pouch, and her parents, who, from their adoring expressions, are obviously head over heels in love with her.

We're so happy to have documented this most wonderful of beginnings for this family. A new chapter of history (the illustrated edition) starts here.
