Having two boys of my own, photographing two sweet brothers just makes me so happy. Typically when I photograph the family, the older sibling is still “getting used” to the the new little one. Roman was 4 weeks at the time of our session and big brother seemed to already know just how to be the perfect big brother. Rueben was gentle, sweet and so loving towards little Roman. There was something so sweet and sincere about their interaction. Big brother would point to his little brother’s hair, giggle while rubbing his belly and tickle his tiny toes.
When I was photographing the baby, I noticed how much they looked alike. But seeing the photos on my screen I can’t get over how much they look alike. They both have the cutest strawberry blonde hair and a creamy, peach coloring to their skin.
After this session, I have fallen in love with newborn photography all over again. If you are looking to document your family, during this fleeting time, please reach out. I typically book my newborn sessions a few months in advance, but don’t hesitate to reach out if it is a last minute inquiry or if the baby has already arrived. This session, for instance, the baby was 2 weeks old when the mom first contacted me.
