This photo session took place at the Rock Bund Development, right behind the Bund, and it was my first time taking pictures there. I always enjoy trying out new locations, and in this case I really liked the pedestrian streets and all the brick buildings and green space. Unfortunately a vigilant guard kept thwarting our efforts to take photos on the grass (forbidding adults from being on the grass is a big thing in Shanghai), but we were persistent and got a few good shots there anyway. :)

Speaking of which, can you believe the adorableness of this family? You can tell from the photos that they're totally fun, and the little guy is just as sweet as can be. (His dad told me that the day after our session, he woke up in the morning and the first thing he said was, "I want to go take pictures with Kristy again!" Love that kid!) And his Mama, who was 8 months pregnant at the time of the session, was utterly radiant, full of energy, and already completely in love with the "rainbow in her belly" (a little girl, by the way. :)) Check em out:
