Heather called me and said “guess what! I am pregnant and this time with twins … and oh yeah, by the way, they are due right around the time of Santa pictures we scheduled with our older daughter!”
I loved that phone call because it meant that I would have the pleasure of photographing another year of portraits for this family. There is nothing I love more than being on the journey of life and going through the adventures of parenthood with my clients.
We just wrapped up the twins one year baby milestone plan and this is their completed custom album. One thing I love is that Heather took my advice and not only did we create images at each session of the twins together, we also photographed them as individuals. This is so important for children to not only feel part of their twin group, but also have their own identity. After all, someday they will be putting together a wedding slideshow from their childhood and would probably like to have a few individual images to share, not all twinsies photos!
I hope you enjoy the album!
