Newborn photoshoot with 4-week-old Kenzo

Soni and Prabin were particularly hoping for some super-cute images of Kenzo swaddled up, as well as some happy family ones of the three of them together. They plan to put these up on their walls at home.

They’ve lived in the Ambrosden area for the last five years, and have particularly enjoyed the great access to a wide range of shops nearby, such as the Bicester Village outlet and the new retail park on Kingsmere.

They’ve got a little bit more shopping to get done before Christmas, so it’s a great excuse to get out and about locally with their new arrival. 🙂

Prabin brings his extraordinary sense of calm to parenthood, while Soni brings her kind and loving nature.

Prabin can’t wait to take Kenzo out on walks and hikes when he’s old enough, while Soni is looking forward to opening up some Lego sets to build with him.

The couple also love travelling, especially if that means visiting Soni’s family in her native Nepal.

Indeed, travel has been a big part of Prabin’s life, as his military work has taken him overseas, through deep jungles and into Afghanistan.

He’s since changed the role he does, which means he now works mainly at the military base, which is much more conducive to family life!

Kenzo has a particularly lovely name – it means wise and healthy, two qualities that most of us aspire to! 

Parenthood has been a delight so far, although a little bit more sleep would be very welcome!

Kenzo tends to sleep through the day but stays awake a lot during the night, until dad manages to soothe him back to rest by walking with him around the house.

Kenzo was a big baby at birth (8 pounds 8 ounces), and his healthy appetite has meant he is already filling out nicely.

So much so, he’s already getting a little heavy to hold, giving mum and dad a bicep workout every time they pick him up!

When Prabin’s brother and family drove up to visit them recently, their three-year-old expressed surprise that Kenzo was bigger than she had expected!

The next family visit will be when Prabin’s sister travels up with her family from Swindon to spend Christmas with them.

Prabin will be cooking up his signature dish, a spicy chicken curry. Prabin’s sister has two little ones, and I’m sure they will love helping to keep little Kenzo warm, cozy and well-loved over the festive season.

And what better gift could anyone in the family hope for this year, than the safe arrival of incredibly handsome Kenzo. 🙂

“Very friendly and professional photographer. Good value of money, amazing quality of pictures.”
