Twins: Double the Fun

Anyone remember the old jingle, "Double your pleasure, double your fun with Double Mint, Double Mint, Double Mint Gum?" I've been doubling my pleasure and fun lately by taking pictures of twin boys every month. What a fantastic assignment!

My photography services were given by members of the local Puyallup Kiwanis Club as a shower gift  to the parents of the boys. Ted was president of the club when the boys were born, so the twins are officially referred to as the Kiwanis Babies. Matthew and Nathan were born in April, but I wasn't gifted to them until time for their two month shots (pictures, not punctures). We just finished the six month pictures. Oh the torture! They just weren't crazy about being stuffed into pumpkins or having to wear green bean outfits - or were those peas?? The pumpkins were my idea, but beautifully carved by Ted. After the shoot, he turned them upside down (pumpkins, not boys), carved a mouth, and put them to work on the porch welcoming trick or treaters on Halloween.

Our next photo session will be the weekend after Thanksgiving. We'll be doing a November theme and Christmas theme in the same sitting, so they can use pictures for holiday cards. I'm always open for ideas - anyone? Only 7 more sessions to go! 

All of the twins albums can be found at bonniekingphotography.com
