It was a pleasure to meet Manar and Ayman and photograph the start of a brand new, exciting adventure! I cannot wait to meet their new joy in a few weeks!

But as an aside - can we please talk about Manar’s dress!! I mean - wow! Perfect colour - and the perfect swish!

Manar and Ayman - thank you for trusting me with your story, and asking me to document the very beginning. I wish for you all the joy that comes with the small pitter patter of teeny feet and the exhilarating feeling that comes with the first tiny smile.

And, most of all, I wish you all the best adventures along this new path.
