Dana is one incredible lady, mom of 7 including 3 that are under the age of 2! And she always looks gorgeous and never seems flustered. I think she could give the rest of us a few lessons. What I appreciate seeing more than anything in the several sessions we’ve done together so far is how she is able to focus all her attention on the moment, on being with her babies, really embracing that without distraction. She’s just so calm, cool and collected. It’s soothing to be around. I don’t think a set of twins could have been born to a more prepared and qualified lady.
Two months is never the easiest age to photograph, but these babies are mellow just like their Momma, and they made it easy on us. They each even gave me some smiles.
I ended up bringing along a new prop of mine, an antique doll bed that belonged to my Dad’s sisters when they were little. We spent the last few minutes of our session right as the sun was going down getting a couple of prop shots of the babies in the bed just because they were so good and we’d gotten the other shots we were after. So sweet! We didn’t have much time to play with it (and look for this little bed to be making an appearance in upcoming newborn sessions I’m sure!), but fortunately these sweet babes let us get one of each of them in the few minutes we had.
We’re commemorating Brennan & Bree’s first year in a series of bi-monthly sessions, so you can look forward to seeing how much they’ve changed every other month for the rest of 2013! Check out their newborn session here, and look out for their 4 month session which we’ve already completed on the blog soon!
{Opportunities for 2013-2014 “Year in the Life” sessions to commemorate baby’s first year are now available for parents expecting babies in August or later. Contact us for details. We’d love to chat with you about how we can preserve your little one’s first year in photos!}
