It’s pretty much the thrill of a newborn photographer’s life to photograph twins! I had been waiting for this session for a few months when these two finally arrived at almost 38 weeks.  Ryan Thomas was born at 6 lbs 15 oz and 18 1/2 inches and Kaitlyn Meri was 4 lbs 10 oz and 17 inches at birth.  Ryan was born even larger than my own little Mimi, and Kaitlyn is a tiny and perfect little thing.  Both very healthy and sweet as can be!

The challenge here, of course, is finding the perfect moment when both babies are calm and sleepy, with full bellies and clean diapers, to take a photo of them at the same time.  All of us moms of singletons know that this is hard enough with one, much less two!  Their mama followed my directions perfectly and they were wiped out when I arrived, and I got most of my favorites in the first 15 minutes!

Newborn Baby S | Shadyside Lifestyle Newborn Photographer

This little sweetie was born in October to join her big sister A, who I photographed as a newborn two years ago! We shot the baby’s lifestyle newborn portrait at her family’s gorgeous Shadyside home, which is a delightful modern and open style and is a “green home,” which I think is unique & interesting and reminds me of the six years I spent in Portland, OR.

This sweet toddler is bilingual (English/German), but her laughs and smiles send a universal message of glee! What a fun and happy little girl.  We spent the first few minutes playing outside because it was a beautiful day and baby needed a little extra time to get ready.

Again A’s beautiful smile steals the show–she is such a lovely and bright little girl and so sweet to her new baby sister.  I like the family portraits on the bed, this is a great way to easily incorporate a toddler and a newborn in a family photograph.

The blue outfit was dad’s pick and was her outfit for coming home from the hospital after she was born.  The white booties are another homemade family item.  In the background of some of these photos you can se big sister A hiding behind the curtain! One of my favorite parts of a lifestyle newborn session is capturing these unstaged moments!
