Brothers are Forever

This March I got to hang out with a couple of great families and capture the intricities of their relationship. The first of these were the Hill brothers. These great boys were getting their pictures taken in honor of their upcoming birthdays. While 3 years apart their actual birthdays are separated by less than a week. The elder was celebrating not only his 16th birthday but also his brand new driving permit. The younger was just crossing over into the threshold of being a teenager, 13. Big important birthdays in the lives of young men. Of course dealing with teenage boys was fraught with a few unusual problems, god forbid you ask them to touch at all, and looking at each other, no way. So as usual I wanted to share my five favorite pictures from their shoot.
This picture is perfect in so many ways, the light almost glows around him and you can see his reflection in the sunroof of his car.

This is one of my absolute favorite pictures of all time. Everything just seems to fit perfectly.

This was the older brother's favorite picture. What a car, right.

This was the younger brother's favorite picture.

I love this set-up. I know the boys, being boys, probably don't like the whole thing very much, but their mother sure did.

We're Looking for Models!

...of newborn twins! That's right, Fairytree Photography is looking for one special mother out there who would like a free newborn session with her twins! We're looking to spice up our portfolio with some adorable twin images and are willing to giveaway one free session to a lucky mother. In order to qualify for this unique opportunity you must either be pregnant with twins at the moment, or have just given birth to twins. We need a set of beautiful newborn twins under two weeks of age at the time of the photoshoot. The reason for this small window of opportunity is simple, newborns begin to become more active, awake, and aware after two weeks, not to mention losing a little bit of their elasticity which makes certain poses a challenge. We will travel anywhere in the Coffee county area for free and the immediate surrounding vicinity. Outside of this area a small mileage fee will be assessed, just enough to cover our gas usage for the day and no more. Remember this shoot is free! The mother will receive a high-resolution cd of her edited images and a print release form, allowing them to take the cd to her developer of choice from Wal-greens to Wal-mart and everywhere in between. In addition the mother will have the opportunity to purchase high-quality prints, birth announcement cards, and other products from us at a discount, but is in no way under any obligation to do so.
So if you or someone you know is currently expecting twins or has very recently given birth please email us at fairytreephotography@gmail.com . Please include your name, location, due date, and the names and sexes of your new bundles of joy. We look forward to hearing from you soon! Alternately you can live your name and email address in a comment underneath this post and we will contact you. When we have our models we will announce them here.
