Oh Babies

Twins. Is it necessary to say anymore? Two diaper changes, two feedings, two baths, two of everything and double the love. These two are just the sweetest things ever. I almost forgot what it was like to carry a newborn. Jacob and Andrew are three weeks old and perfect as can be. Check out the head of hair on these boys! twins3.jpg twins4.jpg twin2.jpg twin1.jpg

MsB: My first and only set of twins were 6-year-old fraternal twin girls that I got to photograph last year. Although I cannot conceive my own child, I feel so fortunate in my career that I get to not only photograph such beautiful babies all the time, but I'm permitted to hold them which I find one of the truest privileges for what I do. I mean, a total stranger or "the photographer" is allowed into the lives of these families that most people don't get to do. Anyway, I just typed a novel but, it seems what I do best, too! haha! What I really came here to say is that I love the last two photos. The boys' hairs totally rocks, even without hair products! :)
amber dawn: Oh my goodness! How precious! Great shots of these little ones!

I'm back!

I hear crickets! We are back from Hawaii (actually got back on Sunday) but have been here trying to catch up with life (and 3 episodes of LOST!). We had a blast and I cant wait to share some stories and pictures. I'm still going through everything and I hope to have it all up by tomorrow. Since I got my new blog I now actually miss blogging! Its really so much more fun for me now! I will leave you with pictures of these photos that I shot today. jojo.jpg anthony.jpg JoJo was totally over me at this point and managed to stay in serious model mode. aj.jpg

Araxi: Hey Shawn! I love NIKON! :) Crazy Nikonian here indeed. The first two shots are with my Nikon 85mm 1.8 and this last one I shot with my 50mm 1.8 they are my trustee portrait lenses. The weather was pretty hazy yesterday (gotta love LA) so everything was shot in ISO 500. Thanks for stopping by and Ill be seeing you soon!
Shawn Kloster: Great shots and welcome back to the "mainland"! What lens did you use here? Us Canonites want to know more about you crazy Nikonians. ;)
