Ten perfect toes wrapped up in Angora rabbit hair socks. Mouse-butt pants. Cuddles and chatter on the changing table as new parents, Tom and Elaine look on with love. These are the things newly filling the Webb household, since the arrival of princess Sarah Rose in early January! The sweetest little joy her parents could have asked for. I’ve been lucky enough to be invited out to Thelema Wine Estate on several occasions now – the first of which was Tom and Elaine’s gorgeous wedding (which you can view here), and once again now to document the beginning of this next monumental chapter in their lives. That of their family of four (I include their sleek English Pointers, Gracie and Finn in this), becoming five! Little Sarah took her time in arriving to join us, and what should have been a December birthday then became a January one. I personally think this is an indicator of great intelligence – this kid was NOT planning on having combined Christmas and birthday gifts for the rest of her life. A sure sign that her mommy is right in predicting that she’s most certainly a doctor in the making! This little girl has a beautiful, exciting and beloved life ahead of her. With parents as doting and exciting as hers, I wouldn’t expect anything less! Dearest Webb family, I hope you’ll enjoy this look back at those first few weeks of Sarah’s life – I’m sure she’s growing faster than you can believe and changing more and more daily. Thank you so much for having me back again to experience the growing of your lives in the most extraordinary way. It’s truly a gift to share this with you and I hope we’ll do it again, many time over! All my love, Claire xxx
Aah man, you’ve photographed this new little family in such a sweet and gentle way. Beautiful.
