BABIES, LOOK AT YOU NOW! I remember the day 17 years ago when I photographed 3 super tiny identical triplets, Jaclyn, Susanna and Charlee, cradled in the large, craggy and very gentle hands of a gentleman called Jack. Their mother Lisa brought them to the shoot in 3 baby capsules which were all lined up in my studio reception when I went to greet them. Inside were what looked to be 3 sweet little dolls, fast asleep, all wearing identical woolen hats. I don’t generally like to play favorites, but this image is certainly one of mine. I always know an image is going to be magical when my hands start shaking as I’m trying to focus … and it’s no mean feat to get 3 babies asleep at the same time (Lisa would definitely vouch for that). I have video of this shoot stored away somewhere so I’ll try to find it and do a later post for everyone to see. But look at the girls today – 17 years old and 5’10” – the same height as me by the way! This image was taken the night of their school prom/ball. The girls are all signed with a modeling agency in New Zealand and getting quite a bit of work, which is great news. Susanna (left) is also really interested in photography and make-up artistry. I’m very proud of you girls! Every week in this on-going series we’ll be posting one of my early iconic images, with news of what the babies are doing today. So if you were one of those babies and you’d like to take part I’d love to hear from you at babylookatyounow@gmail.com – send a recent photo of yourself and tell me a little about what you’re up to today. Oh and by the way, I know you’re going to love next week’s post too! Have a great day everyone! XO Anne #babies #protectnurturelove #babylookatyounow
