Jace & Jeriah

In April, the long 9 month wait was over, and Monica and Jeremy finally got to meet their twin boys Jace & Jeriah. The birth of twins, as I've heard and I can imagine, is a little scarier than just the birth of a single baby and there's a much higher chance that one or both will end up in the NICU. These boys were healthy as can be, though.

We did their newborn photos when they were about 9 days old. Jace has brown hair. Jeriah has blonde hair. That was just about the cutest thing ever. And I don't know if these boys were just in a milk coma the whole time, or if they just liked me a whole lot, but this newborn session was actually a little easy. Yes, I said it. A twins newborn session was easy. I really only heard them cry once. They slept most of the time. Just a little white noise and gentle touch made them stop wiggling around. What I really think, though, is that they were so content because they were close to one another for most of the pictures. Monica and Jeremy seemed like they had been parents for years. They were so calm and collected and I'm sure that had a lot to do with the boys' temperaments.

I am so happy to have done Monica and Jeremy's wedding photos, maternity photos, and now newborn photos. I respect and admire this family so much and it's always a joy to see them! The boys are now a month old and I love seeing the photo updates on Facebook - it's amazing to see how much a newborn can change in just one month!
