Eugene, Oregon newborn photographer: Welcome Twins Eloise and Evangeline!

Oh my goodness! We have another set of twins! If things carry on at this rate I’m going to be a pro at this twin newborn photography thing in no time flat.

These two beautiful little girls, Eloise and Evangeline, came into my photography studio in Eugene, Oregon last month with mommy, daddy, and big sister Cordelia. It was so much fun to photograph them! I did Amy’s maternity session back in August (you can check out the photos here) so it was wonderful to see her family again—and to see how much it’s grown!

Eva and Ellie were so well-behaved. As I mentioned in a previous post, I like to have an extra set of hands to assist during a twin newborn photography session, and this time my helper was Kim. As my photography business has grown I’ve found that I want to focus my efforts more exclusively on the photography itself, and leave the management and administration end to someone else. I pride myself on my customer service though, so I knew it had to be someone special—and Kim fit the bill! I hired Kim in September as my studio manager, but she was sporting enough to assist me with this twin session, even though it falls outside the range of her official duties. Let’s get real though—who wouldn’t want to help with these cuties?

When these sweet girls were born, Evangeline was the smaller of the two, so Eloise had a nickname early on of Ellie Belly to help everyone remember who was who! By the time they came to the studio though, they had both gained some weight and were closer in size—and consequently much harder to tell apart! Despite their almost identical chunkiness, they do both have their own distinctive little facial characteristics, so you can tell which is which if you look closely. We’ll have to see if that changes as they get older. Regardless, they are both absolutely adorable! Beautiful skin, soft dark hair, and those pouty little lips!

Cordelia loved holding her two baby sisters and was also so good for the photos. I had wondered how Cordelia would do, going from only child to oldest of three overnight, but she seems to be adjusting quite well. 

Lavender, peach, and gray was the color scheme for this newborn photography session, and we had fun dressing these girls in outfits and headbands that were close, but not quite identical—just like them! They look so comfortable napping together, and were quite happy to snooze the session away. 

It was such a pleasure to have Amy, Kevin, Cordelia, Evangeline, and Eloise in my studio together! They are a fantastic little family. Well, not such a little family anymore, I guess! It was fun to watch them interact with each other as we recorded this special and amazing event. Two new little ones is a big but wonderful adjustment, and I have every confidence that this family is up for the adventure!
