“We thought about this back in July!” ReeMarkable tells PEOPLE, explaining that the couple wanted to honor their shared love of music in the newborn shoot.

“We were talking about maybe recreating different studio sessions with different artists. And he was like, ‘Wouldn’t it have been cool if they would have documented studio sessions more back in day?’ and I thought about it. Later that night, one of the sessions that was recorded from my dad just popped into my head.”

“My dad was a Virgo and my due date was always in Virgo season, just later. I never thought he would be born on my dad’s birthday,” she adds of Hendrix’s slightly early arrival.

When it came to putting together the photo shoot, the mom of two worked with friend Xavier Perry to get every little detail of the photo down perfectly.

“The set was something that me and Xavier came up with as far as the build out of it all. I found our photographer,Randi Theresa. She was on board with using the set and that’s kind of how it came together.”

“I didn’t want to cry! My dad was a very creative person. People don’t really know but he had so much on his mind when it came to the music business, but he was also into so much other creative stuff. I feel like I get my creative side from him, so I think it would be something he would have been really proud of,” she says.

ReeMarkable had a “wonderful pregnancy” that “gave me more of a spiritual balance and brought me closer to my creativity,” she shares. It was healing after the experience of welcoming her older son as a teen and dealing with the stigma that came with it.

“My 15 year old, he’s my pride and joy. Being able to give him a sibling made me really happy,” she says. “For so long I put focus on him and my career and it wasn’t the right time. But now, he has a sibling of his own and that just felt amazing.”

She was initially nervous about her early delivery, especially with her fiancé in Los Angeles on business while her water broke in Georgia.

“My son woke up and asked what was wrong. I told him my water broke and he said, ‘Okay, what do I need to do?’ And he just took full control. He was very, very helpful and helped me pack my bag because nothing was packed. I’d just had a nesting party with family and friends the night before,” she recalls.

After getting his mom situated and his bonus brother set up with family, the two got to the holistic health hospital, where the mom-to-be got to give birth on her terms. Her only concern, at that point, was her fiancé getting back in time.

“The whole time, I was praying to my dad. I’m like, ‘Please Dad, but I know this is your birthday, but please allow my fiancé to get here in the time,’ " she remembers.

“It was spiritual. It’s been so different. And now, he’s so different — how he responds to music, how he’s just relaxed, very chill. It’s different things that I’ve always been told about my dad.”

“Even if it’s just my dad putting his extra little blessing and hand on him, I believe in that,” she says. “I believe in God so I believe it’s possible my dad kept an extra eye on him to make sure he’s okay.”

“My grandma and I have so many things in common and now we have one more. She’s like, ‘You had your son on Sept. 7 and I had my son on Sept. 7.’ So she was really happy about it also. It’s just such a happy moment.”

ReeMarkable is eager to enjoy these beautiful days with her family and tap back into creativity in the studio throughout the rest of this year.

“My focus, of course, is on being a mom all over again and making sure that I’m on top of everything for my kids. But it’s also important for me to be on everything for myself. My goal and my promise to myself and my kids is to be that role model for them, so they can see Mommy follow my dreams.”

She adds, “I’m grateful — to my dad, to my family and friends and supports, everyone who has had an amazing reaction and shown love. The support has been unreal. I’m very happy. I haven’t been this happy in a while.”
