Welcome Mabel & Sadie | Dubai Birth Photographer

Cesarean Birth Photography In Dubai, UAE

 

I recently had the honor of photographing the arrival of Sarah and Luke's new baby twins. After talking for several weeks and meeting up in person to get acquainted, I knew that documenting Sarah's birth journey would be an incredibly special occasion. Sarah already had two daughters, and had opted not to find out the gender of her twins. She wanted to save that special announcement for when she was inside the delivery room. And what a sweet surprise she was going to get! Sarah and Luke welcomed two beautiful little girls. I was so incredibly moved at the sight of these babies, and so happy for this new family dynamic. Luke is definitely in for the ride of his life! Daughters are some of the most beautiful gifts this life has to offer, and lucky he who has more than one. 

Sarah and Luke, thank you for trusting me to cover this special day for you. Enjoy these pictures for many years to come. Here are some of my favorites from this session. Make sure to scroll all the way down to watch the video.

A Day With The Jouma's | Dubai Family Photographer

Family Photography Session in Abu-Dhabi, UAE

 

I love the energy surrounding big families, so when Rasha reached out to book a cake smash and a family photoshoot, I could not contain my excitement. First, I was really excited that I would be seeing Hamdan and Ryan again (whom you will remember from a previous shoot we had together) and second, I had heard so much about her other kids, Jenin, Husain and Faisal, I couldn't wait to meet them. I was in for a real treat!

We planned on meeting around where they lived, at a beautiful little park area with a beach right next to it, and just spent a couple of hours together, playing and having a good time. There was a football involved, lots and lots of kids eating grass, and just general LOUDNESS AND FUN! 

When it came time to the cake smash, oh boy! The cake looked incredible, I couldn't wait to see what the twins were going to do it. It truly was the most hilarious cake smash session, with the two boys having polar opposite reactions to the cake and cream, and everyone cracking up. My favorite moment was capturing the twins' reactions to eating sugar, complete with eyes rolling to the backs of their heads!

Rasha and Firas, your family is beautiful, mashallah! I had an incredible time with you guys. Jenin, Husain and Faisal, I'm happy to hear all you guys had a great time, and can't wait to see you all again really soon!
