This session last fall was so much fun! This sweet couple contacted me wanting to capture such an exciting time in their life. They were expecting twins – a boy and girl. I met them at their home which has a wonderful park in the neighborhood – and one that I am very familiar with as I used to live in the neighborhood right behind theirs. I instantly got excited because I was familiar with the features at the park and the gorgeous evening light that it has. The weather was gorgeous, and so was this glowing mama to be. I had a great time just strolling through the park getting to know them. The session was laid back and easy, and so enjoyable. Definitely a pleasant change from chasing around little ones.
Since I am so behind on blogging, their sweet babies are already home and a couple months old now. This session probably seems like forever ago for them!
Meet beautiful baby “G”. She was my first newborn session for 2017. She was a tiny little peanut at just about 6 pounds. She was so petite and sweet I could have snuggled her all day. She slept great for her session and easily posed. I absolutely love the shots of her we took in baskets and all curled up. It truly showed how little she was. Newborns grow so fast, it really is special to be able to have these moments captured and frozen in time.
This boy – those cheeks, those eyes. He is such a cutie! I have had the honor of not only capturing his newborn and 6 month session, but also his older sister’s. He was pretty stingy with the smiles for his 6 month session, but it didn’t stop us from capturing some great shots anyways. Mom brought along some adorable props to use and they were just perfect for his session. I loved seeing how big he has gotten and can’t wait to see him at his one year session.
Look at these adorable twin newborn boys that came to see me back in January! Mom contacted me back at the end of last summer to set up a newborn session for them and I had been excited to meet them ever since. Twin sessions can sometimes be challenging, so I don’t book many of them. I am glad I agreed to these two. They were absolutely adorable! We had a few challenges but for the most part they did pretty good. It’s always so interesting to watch twins and see how they differ and how similar they are. Lucky for me they are one of my baby planners so I will get to see them again at 6 months. I wonder how much they will have changed by then. I can’t wait to find out!
My poor neglected blog! I can’t believe how long it has been since I have posted. So many cute babies and families from last fall I haven’t gotten to. It is amazing how fast time and life goes by. One of my goals is to try to keep up with blog better this year. I have at least been a little bit better at posting on Facebook and Instagram.
Now on to the important things, like how adorable baby “V” was. Mom brought her in for newborn session at 3 weeks old. We were a little nervous how well she would do, but she was a little champ. She was still pretty small for already being three weeks. I can’t imagine how little she must have been when she was first born.
