Molly and Liam

This adorable set of twins was just a day shy of being 6 months old, when I came to photograph. They were just beautiful, and once more I was very impressed by their mother, Heather, who is so organized and keeps her house so tidy. Their aunt Michelle was in town visiting, and a welcome extra set of hands during our session. They already have a nice nap routine, I was just in after their morning rest and between lunch, Molly was exhausted by the time I left and had started her afternoon nap. What a life! Such a shame we don’t realize at that stage how blissful and uncomplicated life is… Again, like the recent twins I photographed, I was surprised to notice distinct personality differences, but both had the most pleasant disposition, and were very generous in smiles.

Liam,

I had such a hard time choosing between all the cute expressions these 2 were giving me, that I cheated and made 2 composite boards. The first, B&W, has Liam in the corners and center. The second, is reversed, Molly is in the corners and center.

Molly,

They couldn’t quite sit up on their own, but the boppy was a nice help.

Molly is out in her aunt’s arms. To me, when you hold a baby who totally abandons himself to you, the world just stops.

Aren’t they sweet?

    All right...millions have commented on these photos but come on...they are beyond spectacular...these babies and you should be in international publications...the clarity and preciseness with which you captured the expressiveness in their eyes is awe inspiring. it makes me feel good to know that for generations to come, these childrens' children and their grandchildren can enjoy truly beautiful images at a moment captured in time forever...what amazing work you do.
