There are moments in life that are fleeting but significant, moments that deserve to be captured in all their vividness. The anticipation of welcoming a new life into the world is one such moment. Here at TNK Photo, we’re excited to share one such unforgettable maternity session we had with the Pennie Robert Gabriel family at the breathtaking Newport Beach in Orange County, California.
Heartwarming Shots on the Beach
Nothing quite captures the essence of family like the sun setting over the ocean, casting a golden glow over the waves. As we scouted Newport Beach, we found just the perfect backdrop to photograph this family’s big moment. There’s something about the salty air, the ebbing waves, and the sand between your toes that adds a poetic touch to any shoot. The wind playfully lifting Pennie’s maternity gown, Robert’s protective embrace around his family, and the joy radiating from their faces as they gazed towards the horizon—they were magical moments that made for heartwarming shots.
We made sure to include a mixture of candid moments and carefully posed snapshots. From the laughter as the waves splashed their feet to the serene moments where Pennie gently cradled her baby bump, we captured it all. It wasn’t just about the baby bump, but the love, the emotion, and the unity that comes with expecting a new family member.




















The New Addition
Having a baby is like adding a new chapter to a family’s story. With the Pennie Robert Gabriel family, we could feel the excitement and the love that they already had for this new, tiny life. In our photos, we wanted to convey not just their current joy but also the anticipation of the happiness yet to come. The black and white shots that focused solely on the baby bump are a testament to this new life that’s about to grace the world with its presence. We incorporated little props like baby shoes and a mini surfboard to signify the adventurous life that awaits the newest family member. It was a representation of not just the present but also a hopeful future.



Congrats Pennie Robert Gabriel Family!
As we packed up our cameras and tripods, what remained were the lingering smiles and the sand beneath our feet. It’s moments like these that remind us why we’re so passionate about what we do. A hearty congratulations to the Pennie Robert Gabriel family! May your new addition bring joy, laughter, and endless love. We’re grateful you chose TNK Photo to be a part of this special chapter in your life, and we can’t wait to capture more beautiful moments for you in the future.
