the twins’ saturday afternoon routine

These are my favorite types of sessions. Nothing is set up, nothing is planned. I just follow a family around while they do what they normally do. This time, it was: snuggle, play, snack, play, walk to park, play, snuggle, bath, temper tantrum, snuggle, bed.

Lovely.

  1. Tara. Holy shit. I have loved your work for years and years and years – and this might be one of my most favorite shoots ever. So inspiring! This mother’s face is so expressive and you can easily see that she has taught her children to smile just like her – to let life’s happiness OUT! It’s so fun – and dad is clearly in love with his family. Such partners. Ugh, I could go on and on and on. Perhaps ‘holy shit’ wasn’t the most classy way to say I love this, but I really couldn’t think of anything else that summed up the awe I felt when I was done looking at these photos.

    Wow. :)

  2. Just wanted to let you know…I check your website daily and usually leave with tears in my eyes. You capture life the way it really is – the little things that generally go unoticed. A touch. A smile. That look. Those tiny dimpled feet. Life. My boys are now 27 & 21 and I wish you had photographed our young family…because when I talk to my boys on the hone, that’s how I see them on the other end of the line. As my babies – curly hair at their neck and pudgy little cheeks. Maybe its not to late to come to California for some pictures….
