Even though baby Lorelai is only 3 months old, be prepared for her to cast a major spell on you!
Since her mom, Kayla Glover, is both a photographer and also a major Harry Potter fan [1], it makes sense that her newborn photo shoot centered on this wizarding world [2]. But the images, complete with props contrasting her tiny body, turned out cuter than anyone could have imagined [3]. "I've been a Harry Potter [4] fan since I was 10 years old and I used to even reread the series every year because I just loved 'visiting Hogwarts,'" Kayla told POPSUGAR. "I always wanted to share this with my children when I had them and find a way to combine my love of Harry Potter with my passion for photography."
With just a set of her childhood books, a pair of glasses, a knit scarf, and a Halloween [5] cauldron, the Illinois photographer turned her newborn into a precious Potter fan [6]. But these images aren't just special to Kayla because of their ode to her own childhood.
"Five weeks prior to getting pregnant with Lorelai, I had a miscarriage [7] and lost our first baby. The grief from that experience literally made me feel as if I was coming apart at the seams," Kayla said. "The birth of my daughter put me back together in a lot of ways. Because of that loss, I have such a deep appreciation for her and the meaning behind her existence. She makes me so happy, and I wanted to share that happiness with my friends and family in the form of these photos."
