Growing up in Jaipur, in Indias Rajasthan state, photographer Sujata Setia had her picture taken with nearly everyone in her family: her mom, dad, brother, even a stray cat her parents took in.

Flipping through the photo albums now, she cant find a single photo with her grandparents .

I think my parents never took enough pictures of me and my grandparents because you always believe your parents are invincible until the day they leave you, Setia, a London-based newborn and family photographer, told HuffPost recently.

When theyre gone, theres a sense of loss over the lack of photos, she said. You realize memories alone tend to become a fuzzy version of reality with time.

Now, as a mother of a young daughter herself, Setia hates to think of the same thing happening to other families. With that in mind, she has spent the last year in her travels offering to take photos of grandparents (and great grandparents) with their grandkids as a gift to them. (And as a sweet tribute to her Nani, Nana, Dadi and Dada her four grandparents.)

The photos, captured in Setias natural-light, painting-like style, are pretty breathtaking.
