Who doesn't love a bit of Latin spice to shake up their world? This is exactly what this beautiful family did for me on a lovely weekend in Dubai back in August! Mayra really wanted to get both indoor and outdoor photos of her growing family before the twins arrived, and despite the heat, we managed to get some beautiful shots that day. I won't keep you long, here's a round up of my favorite shots from our time together.

Many of my friends tell me that, when building up a family, going from one to two kids is the most difficult transition. You have to learn how to become a new type of parent. It's like your first time all over again except that your heart expands to fit two little souls instead of just one. I bet all parents secretly worry that they would never love their second, third... child as much as they love their first, and I also bet that they are secretly over the moon when they realize that that is just not true. That you can truly love them all. Equally. 

Mariam and Abdulwahab have welcomed their third child together. A ray of sunshine by the name of Sara. I had the good fortune of shooting Mariam's maternity and family photoshoot in Dubai, and was invited back to shoot Sara's first few days at the hospital as well. Here's a little look at our time together.
