The Wombmates Project - a celebration of multiple proportions

Last week, oh oops, the week before last week (gee time goes fast!), was Multiple Birth Awareness Week and I (Dean) and the team here at Zanzo were VERY excited to launch the Wombmates Project - a celebration of multiple proportions.

In the coming months, we will be looking for and photographing Twins and Triplets, (and Quads if we can find any!) to celebrate what it means to be (and have) a Womb Mate. 

Your $88 participation fee will be donated to the Tasmanian Multiple Birth Association who are a fantastic community group dedicated to supporting families with multiples all across Tasmania. More info on the website here.

There is something so fascinating about twins! Through this project we will explore the different relationships and expressions, the similarities and differences and above all the personalities that make up the community of Tasmanian twins.

We are looking for twins of all ages - from new born to nineties (unless there are some 100+ year olds out there somewhere - that would be awesome!) to take part in this project. Once the shoots are all done we will hold an exhibition to showcase the images and we'd like them all to be really different so, we'll be shooting these sessions both in our studio in the Hobart CBD and on location around Tasmania. Yep that's right! We are coming up to the north of the state later in the year. Click here to put your name on the Northern Wombmates list.

We have already had HEAPS of interest and the first round of shoots start next week! I am so excited about this project and will try really hard to share the odd image on here whenever I get a chance.

If you or someone you love is a twin or has twins, give us a call to be a part of this exciting project. We are looking forward to meeting you really soon!

They brought their dog along for some pawtraits (see what I did there?) too. He was a pretty funny dude.

They won a holiday package worth 10k a while back. Crazy lucky! You've got to be in it to win it hey!  

 

The girls were awesome and really played it up for the camera. Not really the shy type these two ;)

13 and 8 they are. Really cool time for some family portraits before they grow too cool for school. These two won't though. They loved the experience a little too much :)

These boys are just so CUTE hey!? They are 3 months old here and have booked in their 6 month shoot as a part of the Zanzo Babies 1,2,3 program. (Great baby shower gift idea that, nudge nudge wink wink) ;)

I couldn't tell them apart but even dad struggled so I didn't feel too bad about it. Can't wait to watch them grow. I photographed their big sister a few year back. Here she is in 2011...

Looking forward to getting them all together when the boys are 1. Should be heaps of fun!
