On a rainy Sunday afternoon, Curious G and I ventured to the Upper West Side to Nicole Hawkins' photo studio for a special mommy and me photo shoot. We were greeted by her lovely assistant, Gloria, and a beautiful spread of cake truffles and other delicious nibbles. After settling C.G. down with some coloring tools, I had my hair and make up done by Liza Ray. In true Curious G form, my little social butterfly sauntered off to chat with some of the other families that were also at the studio to shoot with Nicole. She also wandered into the room where Nicole was shooting and hopped onto the bed for some solo shots.
Nicole captures sweet and natural interactions between people, and our session was a very organic process. The photos highlight Curious G's joy and her love for mommy!
Nicole's studio comes complete with a selection of flowy, romantic dresses to match the backdrop, which is clean yet cozy. Kids wardrobe is available as well. Curious G's sweet white dress was selected from Nicole's studio. My dress, which I brought to the shoot, is from Innika Choo.
