Mommy- to- be

I had the opportunity last week to photograph this cute couple. Before the session she sent me some images of what she was looking for. I love when clients have ideas of what kind of images they would like, it gives me a starting point....

There were two from a session her friend did while she was pregnant, and two were from her wedding. It wasn't quite as easy to replicate the same poses as the wedding...as there is now a belly in the way :)

The first image is my take on one of the images her friend did, and the last image is one of the wedding images we tried to replicate.

I hope you guys had an awesome time. It was great to meet you guys. Take care.

After some serious email and website issues, the site and blog are back up, so if you were trying to get a hold of me during Christmas, please resend your emails.

The week before Christmas was crazy, between shoots and putting clients orders together, there wasn't much time left for blogging.

So I thought that I would give you an update: I am attempting to get the clients I shot just before Christmas galleries up before I go on vacation. (I have one of too many to count done. --6 days left before I am sitting on the beach.)

I would like to share these three images from one of the sessions I had before Christmas.

Smiles & Giggles


Last weekend I had the honour to photograph this beautiful little girl just two weeks before her one year anniversary.

When she first came to the studio for our little meet and greet before the session, she was very shy with me, but once she got used to her surroundings, she was all smiles and giggles.
She brought with her two super cute outfits: one her Grandma sent her from overseas, and another that her mom bought her. (Mama’s little winter baby…complete with a very cute hat…..that stayed on her head for about two seconds.)

To her mom and dad: kudos to you for helping me entertains her. She understands very little English, so getting her to interact with me was a challenge, but we made it work. Have a very safe holiday. I will see you in the new year.

1st Family Portrait

I met this family during their maternity session, and I was astounded even then by how much this couple loved and cared for one another. During their newborn session it was even more apparent. They were very sweet and caring, and very devoted to their little girl.

Congratulations, she is beautiful. Thank you for allowing me to photograph your very first family portrait.

This little guy is 9 months old, and he is a busy little dude. He wanted to run, jump, crawl away from me....Getting his portrait taken really wasn't on his list of things to do yesterday. But we made due....I am sure that the offices around the studio thought there was a three ring circus next door instead of a portrait studio. Laughter, giggles and roaring are always better than tears.
