    Oh wow, my first call out!
    Here are some of my favorites. The first one I just draped my black background over the couch, the rest of them were taken on the floor with the background draped over the ez 2 nurse pillow. I used natural light from a large window, no flash. The last bunch when they were smaller I just took fo them sleeping in the bassinet--they weren't posed, but sometimes sleeping babies find the best poses without assistance. :)

    Your babies are so so precious, I think you charge people for pictures they look really professional. I remember you in expecting twins and your belly shots looked really good too!

    Thank-you for posting those pictures you have really given me some ideas ! Your little babies are so sweet.

    I lack some computer skills inorder to post my pictures Here are some of my ideas ----- I took a great pic of the girls and myself in "sepia" on the bed with my husband taking the photo above us. (my head doesn't look massive next to theirs) I also took black and white close ups of body parts like elbow, their hand holding my finger, a great one of their foot with their little toe pointed back (used a black drape as the background). Black and white shot of their two sets of feet inside my dh and my hands with our wedding ring showing (tough shot need sleeping babies).

    put a green blanket over a large bouncer and put the two of them in it together inside stockings at Christmas. Used this same bouncer on a kitchen table and had my parents looking over the babies.

    Wrote on a large sign "thankyou Grandma" and took a picture of the girls for their easter presents she sent them.

    I also love when you can get a stuffed animal with a great expression and try to get the babies to have a similar expression in the picture. I also have a picture of the two of them crying -- I just love it. They don't always have to be happy.

    Sorry I wish I could show you the pics but I'm sure you understand.

    thanks again for the pics

    Heather
