In January this year, I took newborn photos for these amazing twin boys. Little twins Alfie and Jimmy arrived just in time for their first Christmas – a few weeks earlier than expected. After a number of weeks in special care, I received the exiting email from their mum letting me know that she would be bringing her boys home. Only two days after they were discharged from hospital, Alfie and Jimmy came to visit me for their newborn photography session. These two boys are identical twins and impossible to tell apart. Mum painted one of the boys toe nails so that we would be able to keep track of who was who, given we decided to snip off their hospital ID bands. After a brief awake time at the beginning of the photo session, both babies then slept the entire time. We did a range of individual shots and ones of the boys together. They were so happy being snuggled together and were very calm and peaceful! With their perfect skin and blonde hair – these two are going to be heart-breakers. I can only imagine the fun and mischief they are going to get up to as they grow up – not to mention the pranks they will be able to play by switching identities!
There is something very special about twins and I love capturing the special bond between these babies. It is amazing to witness the closeness that twins share and also the emergence of different personalities. I feel very honoured to have been selected as this family’s newborn photographer. I know that these photos will forever be treasured as the boys grow up. I hope you enjoy browsing the newborn photos of little Alfie and Jimmy!
