Triplets Turn One | Sneak Peek

It’s hard to believe the triplets have already turned one! I’ve photographed many twins over the years, but these cuties were my first set of triplets!

Today is just a quick sneak peek of their first birthday cake smash, but I’ll share more in the coming weeks, so be sure to stay tuned.

If you have multiples that are turning 1 soon and looking for an experienced photographer of twins or triplets in the Dallas and Fort Worth areas, I would be more than happy to talk with you. Their first birthday is absolutely something to celebrate, friend. It’s hard with just one baby, let alone multiple at once! Scroll below for contact information.

Maternity + Newborn + Baby's First Year {Dallas Baby's First Year Photographer}

Pregnancy is such a magical time. You find out that you're expecting a baby, and you imagine what life will look like in 9 months. It get be hard to imagine, whether it's your first child about to rock your world, or you just can't wrap your mind around loving any child as much as you love your first (spoiler alert: it's impossible NOT to. Love multiplies exponentially. But I digress...). I want to talk briefly about the less than magical parts. The bloating. The weight gain. The nausea, vomiting, fatigue, aches, pains, heart burn and more. It's not necessarily the nine months of your life where you feel like you look and feel your best (unless you are a magical unicorn of pregnant women, then you can just disregard this whole paragraph. And don't tell any other pregnant women, cuz they might hate you just a little.).

I will tell you - when I was pregnant with my third child, Leila, I felt like a mack truck. I gained over 50 pounds, much of which was in my arms, face and butt, and my former basketball pregnant woman self from my first pregnancy felt like a dream. But you know what? I did photos anyway, and they are my favorite. Knowing it was *most likely* my last pregnancy, I am SO glad I captured that time. Both for me and for my kids, and especially for Leila, my only daughter. This period in life is fleeting, and while I can only hope that this will be the only time in my life that I see those numbers on the scale, I know that I'll look back and not see my size, but the wonder. The excitement for the future. Maternity photography is so special that way.

Something I loved about this session with Carly and her family is that while they included her pregnant belly, we didn't necessarily stress over incorporating the bump. She wanted to capture the special time as a family of three before her son's world was rocked.

Once their gorgeous girl arrived and everyone was fully recovered, we did an in-home lifestyle newborn session in their Highland Park home. Carly signed up for my Luxury Baby's First Year Plan, so their family planned for three sessions over the course of baby’s first year. This is so easy for my client families because it guarantees priority scheduling on my calendar and a reminder to schedule baby’s sessions as they grow!
