Tiny twins to one year old toddlers – a growing up story.

Newborn twins portrait wrapped together

What’s better than watching one baby grow up?  Watching two babies grow up!   These gorgeous twins were so tiny when I first met them this time last year, but it was a bit more work chasing them around for their one year photo shoot.   Here are highlights from our four photo shoots this year.

One year photoshoot in Uxbridge

I love meeting babies again to see how they’ve grown, and so I was delighted to see baby Lisa for her 1 year photoshoot in Uxbridge after taking her newborn photos last summer. First we took some serious portraits – with Lisa in her traditional Japanese christening kimono robe and Mum then completed the picture...
