Triplets

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Today I had the massive pleasure of photographing Kuzey, Koray, and Ayaz, Triplets born on the 5th January 2015, gestation age of 31 weeks.

This Triplet pregnancy was a very rare one, mono-mono (monoamniotic) twins and a singlet. Monoamniotic twins the umbilical cord and the placenta, happens in as few as one in 35,000 pregnancies, and just one per cent of twin pregnancies. They had a 4 week stay in NICU.

So today at 7 weeks old but yet still not due until Tuesday the 3rd March, they travelled nearly 2 hours for my first ever triplet photography session.

Maddy Rogers from Maddy Rogers Photography came down from Grimsby to assist me and boy did I need her!!

Photographing newborns is a very specialised area with lots of safety implications so you can imagine 3 babies its a little bit of a juggling act. The reason Newborn photographers like to have their subjects so young Ideally between 5-10 days is down to brain age and muscle tone … Even if your newborn is born very early like these triplets, being 7 weeks proved to have a few problems …. curly poses are almost impossible as they like to stretch out and sleep patterns are very different, But even though these 3 adorable little boys were 7 weeks old they did amazingly.

Here are the images we achieved today[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][mpc_carousel_image single_scroll=”true” images=”4502,4503,4504,4505,4506,4507,4508,4509,4510,4511,4512,4513″ rows=”1″ cols=”2″ gap=”35″ start_at=”1″ image_opacity=”100″ image_hover_opacity=”100″ overlay_background=”rgba(12,12,12,0.6)” overlay_enable_lightbox=”true” overlay_icon=”fa fa-search” overlay_icon_color=”#ffffff” overlay_icon_size=”22″ mpc_navigation__preset=”preset_0″][/vc_column][/vc_row]
