I was so excited to meet up with this family again.  It had been a while since we’ve gotten together.  QUITE a while.  (Their little girl was just a wee newborn back then; as you can see here.)

She’s much bigger now, and LOADS of energy!  I have no idea how her parents keep up to her.  She is sooo cute, and so much fun!  This little family of three will be a family of four in the new year; as a baby boy is on the way!  I can’t wait to meet him!!  Smile

I was very happy to have the chance to meet up with this family a few weekends ago.  (Even though the weather was NOT looking that great…I was glad that the clouds parted and gave us some sun to work with.)  These guys were so much fun, and up for anything!  Even when I handed the girls some moustaches!  Dad is participating in ‘Movember’ to raise money for Cancer research, and we didn’t want to leave the girls out for the photos.  Winking smile

The girls are VERY excited for their baby brother to arrive.  Could be the BEST Christmas gift EVER!  Smile

Happy Labour Day everyone!  And how perfect is it to have a beautiful pregnant mama to show off today?  Winking smile

I thought I would have to wait the loooong 9 months to find out whether this family would be bringing a boy or girl into this world.  As she never found out what she was having for her first two pregnancies.  But something made them want to find out this time around.  And what a surprise it was when they found out it was going to be a little girl!  I asked her oldest boy if he had names picked out for his baby sister.  He told me he did, but his mom didn’t like any of them.  Heehee.  So we’ll have to wait and see what they decide for this little one.  Although it won’t be too much longer!  I can’t wait!!  Open-mouthed smile

I had the opportunity to meet up with this wonderful couple a few weeks ago.  They are expecting a baby boy!  Lately I have seen an abundance of baby girls, so this makes me VERY excited.  I laughed when they were telling me they didn’t want to schedule the session TOO early, as they like to sleep in.  I’m thinking that they will need to get in all the sleep they can right now, because things are about the change!  Winking smile

Of course we had to include their FIRST baby into the photo session.  This proved to be a little challenging, but he was a real pro.  We’re all waiting for this baby boy to make his appearance.  Can’t wait to hear the news!!  Open-mouthed smile

I was out and about at the Arboretum with this gal from FAB Baby Gear a few weeks ago now.  If you’ve ever shopped there, you may recognize her.  And if you haven’t – you should!  Winking smile  Oh, and don’t forget her beautiful little daughter who is waiting patiently for her baby sister to arrive.  These two were completely adorable.  I never imagined a two year old could be so cooperative (certainly not mine!!), but she was so eager to do anything.  I thought it was hilarious!  I managed to choose a few of my favourites to show, so here they are!  Smile

Whenever I think about this couple I am reminded of the Dos Equis beer commercials introducing “The Most Interesting Man in the World”.  One of my favourite part of my job is meeting new people and hearing their stories.  And these two are by far one of the most interesting couples I’ve met.  I’m not sure I’ll tell you their WHOLE entire story, but maybe a few snippets.  I guess when you meet the right person, there’s no reason to wait…at least for these guys.  They met, got engaged right away, then were married last year, are now in the process of waiting for their honeymoon baby…and, if you can believe it, JUST bought their first house.  I have no idea what they’ll plan to do NEXT year!

I can’t wait for this little one to arrive.  I don’t have many couples that choose NOT to find out what they’re having beforehand.  So this is really fun for me.  (Although I will be surprised if it’s a boy….I have SUCH a ‘girl’ feeling.  Heehee, only time will tell!!)  Anyways, here’s a few to share of these fun guys.  Open-mouthed smile

I was so excited when I was contacted to photograph this little family again.  I feel like they have grown before my eyes!  One of my first portrait sessions when I started K Photo and Design was this mamas maternity session.  Then the newborn session followed, and last summer I managed to photograph this cutie again when she was almost one.  And now here I am photographing another belly, and soon to be new baby.  It’s quite amazing actually.  So here are a few of my favourites.  Smile

This family is going to be expanding by one more little boy in the very near future.  Although you’d never think that there was a baby in there.  It literally looks like she’s just shoved a little basketball up her shirt.  Wouldn’t it be nice if we could ALL look that gorgeous while carrying around an extra 15(ish) pounds?  Their hands will definitely be full if he’s anything like his active big brother.  He was so talkative, and funny…I definitely got my workout for the day, that’s for sure!  Here’s a few snippets from their session.

I don’t think there is a better way to start off the Mother’s day weekend than with this beautiful mama expecting their first baby.

But seriously, I just love photographing people who straight out tell me that it’s going to be difficult for me to photograph them.  (However I believe these two were very wrong.)  This gal was just glowing in anticipation of their baby girl arriving sometime the end of May.  I must admit, I can’t wait to meet her either!  (And also find out the name they have chosen.)  Smile

They got their first look at their baby at 3D Miracles ultrasound clinic.  It’s amazing how you can actually get a little preview of what your baby will look like.

A few months back I began working on a small display of photos for massage therapist/doula Anna Belanger’s clinic. It’s a one of a kind establishment dedicated to women in their birthing years. If you haven’t been there, you MUST check it out. She offers pre and post natal massage, labour support, infant massage classes, and yoga. Anna also has many wonderful associates that hold meetings at “the Mother’s den” in the lower level. Some groups have included breastfeeding meetings and birth preparation classes. Although she always has something new going on!

The lovely belly cast you can see in the window is by Ottawa Belly Casts.  They do amazing work!

Anyways, as some of you may remember, I had a polled my facebook fans to help me choose the lucky photos to order up for the display. Sometimes I just love ALL my babies so much it makes it so hard for me to choose! So these were the photos that were selected.
