There is the old saying, “It takes a village to raise a baby.” (or in this case, two babies)

And we often get to see the validity of this phrase when we show up for our newborn sessions with clients and – whether it’s grandma staying to help for a few weeks or a friend helping out for the day – there are often other family & friends present. A new baby certainly brings a whole community (or even just a few extra loved ones) together and Milo & Clark were no exception. When I arrived to their place for photos I got to also meet their Grandma who had been helping out mom & dad for a couple of weeks. Even more than spending time with new parents, I love meeting new grandparents – their excitement is so palpable, it’s hard not to feel it yourself.

And in lieu of that, I thought today’s session I’d focus on the family dynamic in the images I chose to share..

Anyway, I had the absolute best time in the world with this family to capture their new life with twin boys. Thanks so much again to mom & dad for inviting me out and for all of the cups of coffee you made us (Vasili and I appreciate those little gestures more than you know) XO
