Janell contacted me to see if I had availability for The Birth Session, but unfortunately I was not. I do not accept births between the months os October-December due to the holidays and the birthdays of my own three children and husband who were all born in those months. Janell was disappointed but completely understood, and decided to book a Fresh 48 session for her twins when they arrived! Her babies ended up arriving a few weeks early and had to spend some time in the NICU, so Janell decided to transfer to a newborn session instead. When they arrived at the studio I was in complete awe of how tiny and cute they were! David was 5 pounds 2 ounces, and little miss Sanîa was 4 pounds 12 ounces. They were the SWEETEST little duo, and happiest right next to each other all cuddled up just like they were in their mama's belly. I also took images of each individually, and then concluded the session with family images. It was a lot of fun, and I just LOVE this family! I can't wait to see these little babies again for their milestone sessions and watch them grow.
