Twins... for the first time

It has been my pleasure to photograph this family over the past few years.

I photographed their newborn baby, then her again when she turned one, then momma

when she was pregnant with these precious twins.

It was at that maternity shoot they said, "So what do you recommend for shooting twins?"

I told them after the fact I was tempted to say... "You find another photographer, is what you do!"

I've never photographed twins.  Ever!

Newborns take a delicate touch and aren't the easiest shoots to begin with... times that by two... I was honestly a little frightened!

Of course you never let them see you sweat, so I was like, well, I've never done it, but if you are willing I think I can do it.

They were willing, and did it we did.

I say WE and mean both mom and dad, grandma and grandpa, and the nanny, were working it that day!!!

Not only did we have twins, but a two year old who wanted to play too!

It was a wonderful shoot.

I love these precious images of these two little people who began their life together.  Such a special thing to capture.

I was sweating like a pig when all was said and done, but it was so worth it!

Funny story:  I was dropping off prints, taking time to visit, snuggle these babies... we were all chatting and I asked about the canvas mom ordered.  Turns out that was a surprise for dad, for Christmas.  You are welcome!  Glad I ruined that!  It was a funny moment that I still laugh about.  They were both so sleep deprived I don't think either of them remember me blowing the surprise!
