Momma Kim is a good friend of mine who started as a client referred to me years ago by another friend.  I love when I can say “and the rest is history”.  I’ve photographed her and Kevin years ago, then her, Kevin and their son, Kaiser, and now a few years later, their twin babies!  Oh how happy we are that they are here!  It was weeks of bed rest for Kim (in the hospital!) and then a pre-term delivery, but she and babies were home later the same week and just 11 days after birth they were in my studio!  I felt so incredibly lucky.  These babies are the most beautiful little human beings.  One at 4 lbs something (I can’t recall the exact ounce) and the other at just over 5lbs…they were precious.  Beautiful coloring and everything just oh-so-perfect.  Ahhhh…just sublime.  I still feel so lucky!!  The unfortunate part is, after hours of trying to get those perfect shots, the babies stayed awake more often than asleep and always at opposite times than the other!  Why of course, right?!  Leading up to our session, Kim said they were sleeping so good and always at the same time.  Was it me?  No, I know it wasn’t me, but after trying everything, gosh..I remember, hello!, there are TWO babies, not just one!  And that the chance of having perfect sleepy babies at the very same time is really very hard to do while expecting them to be perfect little models.  But I am very happy to say we did get a couple “keepers”.  I just hope with all the time she, grandma and the babies spent with me, that they’ll come back and come back soon, because there’s so much more I want to capture!  Nevertheless, any capture of baby twins are precious and perfect beyond words.  I hope you enjoy these gorgeous gifts from God.  Meet Mia and Parker, just 11 days old…

(Thank you, Kim!  And much healing to you and sleepful nights so very soon. xo)
