Vibrant and Snuggle-Filled In-Home Newborn Session in San Francisco

Newborn

May 28, 2020 Newborn

This session took place a week or two before Shelter in Place, and looking back, Cass is more grateful than ever that she got to know this family and help them celebrate the arrival of their newborn, Chell Spirit. They wrote an inspiring blog post about how they came up with this unique and meaningful name.
