The magic of a mother’s kiss

As shared by @copperkeystills

"Hi, I'm Jessica a professional photographer based in #Iowa. This picture is one of my favorites from a family session I photographed last fall. One of the goals of this session was to get this sweet boy to smile, and momma kisses got him smiling in the end! One of the purest and most transparent smiles that I have managed to capture."
