Baby photography is so fun. Even more fun when i get to watch these babies grow! everyone knows i love photographing newborns and its such a joy to do their one year photos to see how they’ve grown, changed or stayed the same. I cannot believe these beauty-full babies are a year old already. You all remember the twins, right? How perfectly adorable and tiny and squishy they were. They’re a year old! And they’ve got distinctly different and BIG personalities. And they show through these photos so well. Lily is a total ham and crazy fast, does not want to sit still, always laughing and smiling. Everett is a little more chill, more serious, taking things in. Both are just too cute for words. I had so much fun with them, i didn’t want to leave. My face and abs hurt so much from just laughing with them non stop.

one baby item you couldnt live without:
i have three.. sorry, not sorry.. pottery barn glider/rocker. i can’t tell you have many hours we/i have clocked in that thing. the baby channel (gasp!). a cleaning lady
biggest first year struggle:
its a three way tie between three months without sleep, feeling like a single parents because there are two babies and no one to switch off to, and getting them both to bed at night by yourself. Phew!
