One of my absolute favourite things about living in Ottawa is visiting the Tulip Festival.  We attempt to go every year.  But it’s so hard to time it to see the tulips at their best.  Either it’s too cold or rainy and those flowers have not fully opened yet.  Or it’s been too hot and sunny and they’re on their way to being fried.  (Which is what occurred this year.)  We did manage to see some beautiful colours though!

As we head into Mother’s Day weekend – I want to wish all moms a very happy day!! Open-mouthed smile

This has been the largest newborn I have ever photographed to date – at a whopping 11lbs 3oz!  But just look at all the chubby baby goodness!!  He was so cute and cuddly.  And a welcomed addition to a family of all boys.  (Even the cat is a boy I think!)

But seriously, don’t you just wanna pinch those pudgy little chubs??  Winking smile

Two completely unrelated things.  But as it worked out, they both occured today!  And it’s not EVERY day that I have another photographer feature me on their blog.  So I guess today would be one of those odd days.  Lee-Ann of “Ginger Snaps!” did a little Q&A with me if you would like to take a look.  Plus I was able to show off some of beautiful baby and family photos.  Winking smile

I quite enjoyed our little taste of summer today.  But as I was digging around in my garden I remembered I hadn’t posted any photos from the Tulip festival this year.  Which is one of my favourite events of the year, and one of the reasons why I love Ottawa so much.  Each year it’s getting a little bit harder to convince my son to go down to see the flowers though.  He’s a true boy; why in the world would he want to see FLOWERS?  Until he smelled the Beaver Tails that is.  Then he was on a mission to find where that sweet smell was coming from.  My daughter on the other hand, LOVED all the flowers.  She liked the pink ones, the purple ones, the red ones and even the white ones.  And when she saw the yellow ones she was so excited to show me, because well, yellow is MY favourite colour!  Because of conflicting schedules and the crappy weather, we didn’t get down to see the tulips until it was almost too late.  Some of them were pretty well done, but others still made a pretty picture.  Smile

All that being said, I am itching to get outside in this nice weather!  (With my camera of course.)  If you are thinking of setting up a family portrait this summer, don’t delay!  The summer months tend to book up quickly.  Please contact me today (info@k-photo.ca) so we can chat.  Enjoy the beautiful week ahead!!  Open-mouthed smile

I was getting my little one’s (Am I still allowed to say that?  She’s going to be 3!!) birthday invites ready to send out and came across these cuties I had to share.  Most little girls have a little teddy bear or doll they’ve become attached to.  But this gal LOVES flamingos!  And I ask, do YOU think I can find ANY flamingo…anything in this part of the continent?!?!  Luckily she has her 2 best buddies; Mango and Splits.  (Although sometimes Mango’s nickname is Fla.  And one one of them is a boy, but I’m still confused as to which one.)  When asked what she wanted for her birthday, she says “a flamingo cake, a rainbow one!”  Which I’m not surprised, she has quite the sweet tooth!  I’ve spent some time trying to design her cake over the last few weeks, and I’m NOT a cake decorator by any means, but it’s a lot of fun to pretend I am.  So wish me luck!!  Open-mouthed smile
