Mother and Child Bond

Studio portrait at home of a Mexican female mother in her late 20s holding her baby girl; medium tan skin, warm undertone; long wavy dark hair over one shoulder; soft white t-shirt, no logos. She holds her 1-year-old daughter a little higher on her hip, the baby in a pastel pink sweater, only the upper body visible; one of the baby’s hands rests lightly on her collarbone. Soft daylight from a nearby window; shallow depth of field; background is a blurred kitchen or dining area with light wood furniture and neutral walls, gentle bokeh. The mother looks at the camera with a warm, natural open-mouth smile, as if she just laughed; the baby girl looks slightly to one side with a curious but relaxed expression. Portrait orientation, 3:4 ratio, mid-chest-up composition; subjects centered, camera at eye level; full head and hair of the mother and baby’s head entirely inside the frame with a little space above; both shoulders and the baby’s upper body clearly visible.
