Twin baby photography | St Charles Missouri
One baby, two babies… I’m photographing twins! Today I’ll backtrack a little and post some older images of the twins. I’ve photographed them a few times already and need to get caught up.
I have so much respect for parents of multiples, I really do. This amazing couple really has a great system. I was so impressed with the way they just “go with the flow” and didn’t get frustrated when one baby or the other was not ready for photographs.
Go with the flow really is the theme with twins. I had to practice that too! Thankfully we were able to get a few photos of each baby both awake and asleep. With twins, I make sure to get poses of each baby individually as well as some together. That way each has his/her own independence and their own special portraits. Since being together is so much a part of their family lives, I feel it’s also important to try and capture some with both together.
Photographing 3-month-old babies really takes a bit of patience (and twice as much when more than one baby is at the photography session). At a 3 month session, I like to show off baby’s newest skill: holding his and her head high. Not all babies can do that at this age, but when they can, I am able to snap some great head and shoulder images.
I typically photograph babies at the following ages: newborn, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 1 year. The baby plan is designed for 3-4 sessions between ages 3 months and 1 year and includes a beautiful 10×20 framed portrait collage with one image from each session featured. The traditional baby plan is done in the studio. If you prefer outdoor or on-location sessions, those are also an option.
The studio is conveniently located in St Charles near the Page Extension and Highway 94. I also love photographing families
Thank you for trusting me as your family and baby photographer!
