“What are little boys made of?
What are little boys made of?
Snips and snails
And puppy-dogs’ tails
That’s what little boys are made of.”

This nursery rhyme is very appropriate for this Ridgewood family photo session I had a few weeks ago.  What do you get when you combine 8.5 twin boys and a 6 month old puppy who is bursting with energy?  You get a lot of running, jumping, general goofing around, silly jokes and funny faces.  But you also get some soulful conversations, thoughtful looks and  long eye lashes.  And I loved that 1) I was able to get natural smiles from both boys despite the fact that the Mom told me that she was not sure if that was at all possible 2) the boys ended up having lots of fun and 3) the Mom loved all images and kept saying how amazed she was at the outcome!
