Central Mississippi Wedding and Portrait Photography

Scenario – Great mom looking to get a traditional shot of her VERY non-traditional “kids” for her husband for father’s day.

3 month old

2 year old

7 year old

Just by looking at it, it doesn’t seem THAT intimidating, I know.   In fact, it seems almost ideal.

Now, imagine if the only ones old enough to walk happened to walk on all fours????  And, to top it off, one of them makes up 90% of their combined weight!

Needless to say, we knew that we were about to have a first in our studio! 

We couldn’t have wished for a better turnout on the shoot.

Mom, Betsy, was great.  She came super-prepared and all smiles, as did her beautiful little girl Rivers, her 2 year old bloodhound, Rigby, and her 7 year old Yorkie, Hank.

Her little sis, Peyton, was there to keep things in check – pups in their kennels, pacifier for Rivers, an extra hand for us all.

It was a blast. 

And, we got the shot.

I don’t know a better way to honor man’s best friend than to commemorate him in a family photo.  I just love it.

Kudos to sweet Betsy for being such a thoughtful mom and wife!

About a month ago I received a phone call from an expectant mother of twins.  She was due to have them in about 5 weeks and was interested in doing a few shots of them as newborns.  I immediately was super-excited about getting the opportunity to shoot newborn twins!

Knowing that most moms of multiples go early, I told her to give us a ring whenever they came knocking…I was dismayed when weeks went by and we hadn’t heard back.

Well, the phone call came about a week ago and that sweet little mom had indeed gone early, like a couple of days after we spoke!  Although they were technically a month old when we shot them, they were 3 days shy of their due date ringing in at 5 1/2 and 6 pounds.  Thankfully, they came out healthy and happy and were released to go home after only spending 5 days in the hospital!  How about them apples, eh?!

We’ve shot twinkles before, but not newborns, so we were thrilled to get to work with this little guy and gal.

They did just great.  LOTS of hand-holding and cuddling – just what you would hope for as a parent (and photographer)!

Thanks for being our very first newborn twins, Ellie and Ramsey!
