Twinkies | Simcoe Photographer

Months and months ago an auntie contacted me about a gift certificate for her niece…Yay! We make a great gift She’s also having twins, says auntie…double yay! Literally.

I would drop everything any given day of the week to shoot twins…of any age really, but newborns are such a treat. If you follow us at all, you know twins are near and dear to my heart <3 And these two, well, I just could have kept them both! Grayson is the boy, and we was out like a light when he arrived and stayed so for such a good chunk of time. He is VERY curly and a little frog legged! Sister Taylor is a bit bigger than her brother, and was wide awake and checking me out. Awake or asleep they were both happy as clams, even when we ‘negotiated’ them into the pea pod (which is made for one by the way, but rather stretchy thankfully!)

Mom and Dad were SUCH easy going parents, which can be surprising for first time parents, but also for parents of twinkies. Even when the pregancy is uneventful, multiples are still considered high risk and caring for two babies at once can mean a lot of stress. These two were fabulous, even after being peed on {both!} It was so great to spend time with such a wonderful family!

Mom and Dad brought grandma’s christening gown, aged over 100 years and beautiful from top to bottom. Babies in the family have worn it for years. It was slightly big on the twins, but oh, what a priceless piece of family history and I’m honoured to be a part of it.
