Just another Sunday...

I have no idea why I titled this post "Just another Sunday...' but I do love the idea behind the day Sunday. Right before the start of the work week but the end of a tranquil weekend. Somehow it conjures up memories of my childhood and how much we enjoyed scouting around town with the family on those relaxed weekends.

This particular shoot of the lovely Akhtar family which was by chance taken on a sunday reminds me of those fun, and carefree days where every hour was sucked up to pure enjoyment. This shoot was all about that and more. The kids were adorable together. The older son throwing orders at his younger sister to smile and pose while she in return ignoring him would shyly scold him back but continually smile at the camera. They were the cutest duo together. You could tell they were in control of their own little worlds running from one end of the park to the other giving ideas on where they would like to get their pictures taken.

The parents had such a youthful presence to their demeanor. At times I think they even forgot they had their kids with them. So entranced by each others love that it made modeling for the camera so easy for them. They seemed so content and relaxed with their role as mom and dad, husband and wife that everything around them just fell into place. Their youngest one was the little bond that brought them all together. It was so sweet to see them cradling her in love and the older siblings begging to hold and kiss her.

I had a wonderful time with this beautiful family, capturing the warmth and love between each of them. Thank you so much Akhtar family for allowing me to be a part of your Sunday morning and making mine all the more special. Here's a sneak peek from their shoot.

Regards,
Khadija
