they don’t look anything alike, but these two handsome 18 month boys are twins. i had so much fun chasing them around (yes, that’s what i did the whole session)! i think we were all ready for a nap by the end… ok, so the cute mother of these twins wrote me saying she has […]

all right folks…here it is…i am announcing a huge spring special AND a contest…all wrapped into a nice, little package. this is a ONE time deal…you know i don’t have specials like this everyday (or ever)!
