Being a mom to a beautiful little girl myself, inspired me to giveaway a free photo shoot to a single mother and her daughter this Mother’s Day. Indeed, mothers are and should all be celebrated the same…I felt that i particularly wanted to celebrate the single mothers out there who sometimes have to be a mom and a dad at once,…the ones who don’t get the breakfasts in bed, or the flowers, or the cards, since there’s no one else around to show the little ones how to celebrate them… I felt honored to connect with this amazing lady, Heather and her sweet babe, Holly. They’re a such vibrant duo and i really enjoyed seeing them interact. They are so connected and you can tell what an amazing mother Heather is. She’s a true role model to her daughter, works full time and does it all with style… Here are some of my favorite shots from their session,…enjoy!

I am proud to say that I will be giving away a very special “mother daughter” photoshoot to a very special lady (and her lil princess) in honor of Mother’s Day this week :-). Being a mother myself has given me a profound appreciation to motherhood and all things related. I cannot express enough gratitude to my mom for being who she is, as who i am today she’s helped shape,… and i am forever grateful she gave me all the tools i needed to create my own path in life. She is one amazing lady and i’ve always said this to her “mom if i could achieve to become half of who you are i will be happy with just that”…She continues to constantly inspire me and i aim to give the same to my own daughter.

Happy Mother’s Day.

XO, Ina

My mother, my daughter, and I

I had the privilege of photographing this adorable little angel, baby Joseph Nua Deda. Born in February 24th, 2015, 22″ long and 7lbs  of pure love right here…His mommy Rejmonda, who in my opinion is the most beautiful and stylish lady sporting around her Loubutins while breastfeeding this little munchkin and his daddy who took off of work to give us a gorgeous “while in daddy’s arms”  backdrop made this session so lovely. What made it even more special was his loving grandmother, Liza. The sweetest, most gracious lady whom my family and I have known for sometime now. Antoneta, Joe’s awesome auntie was there to bring out the cutest props and keep our little model Joe in his best behavior. 🙂 Enjoy some of my favorite images. Xo

Paige and Nic tied the knot back in 2013 and i couldn’t be any happier to see them take the next step together in becoming new parents,…Little sweet Bay Cameron is on the way and as you can tell she already has begun her little fashionable debut with all the accessories her mommy has waiting for her.  This christmas will be special in many ways for Paige and Nic and we wish them all the very best in creating their own little family…Happy Holidays
