One more September.

They’re different already.

That’s the thing about childhood. You don’t always notice it changing while you’re in it.

The editor who made this book possible.

I want to talk about Jessi Dodge.

When I had a year's worth of images and no idea where to start, Jessi was the person who sat with me in the work. She culled. She sequenced. She designed the layout and the cover. She is a photographer and photo editor herself — she's made documentary work like this before, including her own essay on a mother of triplets. She knew exactly what this project needed.

Great work is almost never made alone. This book is mine. But it wouldn't exist without her.

Forget the perfect family photo. This is better.

Because childhood doesn't happen on cue.

It happens on the swings.
Inthe pool.
In the little red wagon.
In the bathroom, playing with a ball.
In raincoats and wet hair and the everyday routines that seem completely ordinary right now.

It happens while parents are helping, siblings are figuring each other out, and nobody is particularly interested in looking at the camera.

And that's exactly what I want to photograph. Not just what your family looks like right now, but what your family feels like.

The things your kids do without thinking.
The way they interact with each other.
The tiny details you don't realize you'll miss until they're gone. That's the reason I created Year in the Life.

Instead of trying to manufacture one perfect family portrait, we make space for your actual life to unfold—and I photograph it as it does.

Because someday, this version of your family will only exist in photographs.

You don't need perfect. You need your life, remembered just as it is.

DM me REAL and I'll send you the details about Year in the Life.

Well, apparently I’m not done talking about these twins. 😉

**Double Double just won another Inspiration Family Award.**

This time, it was for a collection of images from the project—a year I spent photographing my cousin’s family as they figured out life with twin girls under two.

And honestly, I think this is why the project keeps getting recognized.

It isn't polished motherhood.

It's motherhood with four babies who need you at the same time.

It's meals and messes and toddler chaos.

It's someone crying while someone else is laughing.

It's tiny moments of quiet that last approximately 14 seconds.

It's exhaustion.

It's humor.

It's the kind of ordinary family life that can feel completely overwhelming while you're living it—and incredibly precious once you realize it's already gone.

I didn't set out to make a book about two sets of twins.

I set out to photograph a year in the life of a family.

And somewhere along the way, I realized that the messy, mundane, hilarious, exhausting parts were just as important as the beautiful ones.

This award is another little reminder that those moments are worth photographing.

And worth keeping.

**Double Double** is now available for pre-order, with the book launching October 16.

If you've been following this project, this is your chance to own the whole story—not just the photographs I've shared here and there.

And to the family who let me into all of it: thank you. ❤️

I want to show you what the whole day looked like.

Not just the beautiful parts.

The getting everyone fed.
The mess.
The laundry.
The constant picking up and putting down.
The moments when somebody needed something before you’d even finished taking care of the last somebody.

This family had two sets of twin girls under two years old.

For most of the year I was photographing them, sleep was…not exactly abundant.

I wasn’t there every night, but I saw enough of those early mornings, long days, and tired evenings to understand the rhythm of it.

And once, I even took the baby twins overnight so my cousin could get a little sleep.

I remember standing there in the middle of the night, realizing I couldn't remember which baby had woken up. So I stopped trying to figure it out.

I picked up a baby.
Fed her.
Changed her. Comforted her.
And went back to sleep.
Autopilot.
I'm sure that's how my cousin operated most of the time, too.

You don't get to pause motherhood while you catch up on sleep. You just keep moving toward whatever the next need is.That's what I wanted this book to hold.

Not just the gorgeous light and the sweet twin moments.

The meals.
The chaos.
The exhaustion.
The ridiculousness.
The tenderness.
The ordinary Tuesday afternoons that probably felt endless at the time.

Because when you look back at a year like this, those things belong in the story too.

Double Double is now available for pre-order, with the book officially launching October 16.

If you'd like to have one, comment BOOK and I'll send you the pre-order link.

This is the kind of motherhood story I want to make physical—to put in your hands and let you remember what it actually felt like.

A year of photographs is becoming a book.

This is Double Double—a photo essay about my cousin’s family and the wonderfully chaotic reality of raising two sets of twin girls, all under the age of two.

For a year, I showed up at their house two or three times a week.

Different days. Different light. Different moods. Different levels of chaos.

I photographed the things that usually happen when nobody is trying to make a photograph happen.

The mess.
The noise.
The boredom.
The tenderness.
The ridiculousness.

The completely ordinary moments that, somehow, become the ones you want to remember.

Now I’m in the final proofing stage, going through the pages and making sure the book feels exactly the way I want it to.

And pre-orders are officially open.

This project has lived on my hard drive for long enough. It’s time to let it become a real book.

If you’d like a copy of Double Double, you can pre-order yours through the link in my bio.

Newborn sessions are a little different from the way I photograph families.

There’s more direction. More slowing down. More intention around how we position everyone.

But I’m still looking for the same things I look for in every session: connection, personality, tiny details, and the moments that actually feel like your family.

Because a newborn session doesn’t have to be completely unposed to feel honest.
Sometimes the photograph is beautifully arranged.
Sometimes it’s the expression that happens right after.
And sometimes it’s the tiny detail you didn’t even notice until you see the photograph years later.

That’s the part I’m always paying attention to.

The difference between posed photography and documentary photography is simple.

One gives you a beautiful image.

The other gives you back the moment.

I'm Jenna. A Tucson family photographer. Newborn photographer. Maternity photographer.

But really, I’m a photographer for families who want to remember more than what everyone looked like.
I want to photograph the way your toddler reaches for you, the newborn curled against your chest, the way your kids run through the house, and all the ordinary moments that somehow become the ones you miss most.

I’d love to tell the story of your family.

I didn't expect this project to change the way I photograph families.

I started a personal photo essay because I wanted to make photographs without a client, a shot list, or anyone telling me what the final gallery needed to look like.

Then I found an editor.

And suddenly I had to look at the work differently.

I had to let go of photographs I loved because they didn't belong in the story. I had to recognize when I was repeating myself. I had to think about how one photograph changed the way I saw the next one.

Most importantly, I learned that a good photograph isn't necessarily a necessary photograph.

That lesson has stayed with me.

Now, when I'm photographing a family, I'm thinking less about collecting a gallery full of individual “good pictures” and more about how the photographs work together.

The quiet moment.
The chaos.
The connection.
The weird little thing a kid does that nobody could have planned.

I'm looking for the photographs that belong to the story.

And I think this project made me a better photographer because of it.

One ordinary moment.

A baby nursing to sleep.
Two tired parents holding hands.
The TV on. The whole world narrowed down to this little sofa.

No one is looking at the camera. Nothing was posed. And years from now, you may not remember what you were watching or what time it was.

But you’ll remember this.

The weight of your newborn in your arms.
The way your partner reached for your hand.
How small your baby felt against you.These are the photographs I want to make for you in those first weeks—not just what your baby looked like, but what it felt like to be their parents.

If you’re expecting a baby in Tucson, I’d love to help you preserve the ordinary moments you’ll miss more than you expect.
