Photographing my children for the first time with their baby brother.... Chicago Family Photographer

Expectations..... I talk about this a lot.  My expectations in photographing my children, when reality is to let them be who they are and go with the flow..

Ansel was 11 days old (born on 12/5), I thought it would be a great idea to take the sibling photos for the first time while their Dad was sleeping.  The first fight began with doing my 2 year old Oona's hair.  She hates having her hair done.  A sloppy ponytail was my first small victory.  

Second fight was over which blanket they would lay on.  Of course they choose the oldest looking one.

Third fight, well..... the photos show it all.  They also show the love Viola and Oona have for their baby brother.  He is settling in to the madness nicely.

I'll try this again when Dad is awake ;) , in the meantime please check out some of my favorites of my 3 kids!
