Rory ~ Newborn session with Toddler

I’ve been photographing Abby since she was a newborn, so I was thrilled when Mom called to schedule Rory’s newborn session. Of course, this time it was a bit different since now we would be doing a newborn session with a toddler as well.

Mom hugs both her toddler daughter and newborn sonAbby was enjoying this cuddle from her Momma. She’s having to share her parents now, so these extra bits of love mean so much.
