Celebrating 60 years together!  (I could only hope to be this in love after 60 years.)  This couples daughter (who was visiting for a few weeks) wanted to do something special for the occasion.  She wanted some nice black and white photos of the two of them together, and some with her too.  The weather was to be perfect, but when we got outside, I quickly realized it was a lot warmer than it was supposed to be!  We didn’t waste any time, and quickly started shooting away.  I even grabbed one of the couple walking to the next location…but I loved how they walked together – so sweet.  Happy anniversary, you two!!

This little guy is just barely 3 months old, and just look how cute he is!!  That crazy mop of hair, those sweet innocent eyes, but that smile…man, that just lights up a room!  He was so happy and content, but we were working close to his nap time.  And when he decided it was time to nap, it was time to nap.  There was no putting it off for a few cute shots with Mom.  So we went with the flow and caught a few snugly sleepy ones.  (They look so peaceful when they’re asleep.) 

Luckily we did get a few with Dad, as this was his Father’s Day gift.  *Hint – a portrait session is ALWAYS a great gift for ANY occasion!* Okay, I narrowed it down to a few favourites…here’s little Chase.

Meet Brynn.  (I just love her name!)  This is actually my second time photographing this little munchkin; I was lucky enough to visit her when she was only 5 days old.  Even back then she was a bit of a challenge to photograph.  She’s almost one now and look how big she’s getting!  I laughed at her mom’s warning that she doesn’t really like strangers very much.  I too, had a daughter that felt that way about anyone new.  But as long as I kept my distance (and we didn’t make her lean on her little stool!) she was fine.  I did manage to catch a few cute ones though.  My goodness… just look at that sweet little face!

Meet little Caiden.  I just love the name, and it suits him so well.  His parents were so sweet, completely head over heels in love with their new baby boy.  He’s a very lucky little guy.  I tried to pick a few to share, but I just couldn’t do it.  I managed to narrow it down to five.  So here they are! 

Last week I had the pleasure of photographing this expanding family.  You know everyone talks about that pregnancy “glow”?  Well this gal had it!   I had a great time.  Always a challenge when you involve an active 2 year old.  And this little guy was bu-sy!  I wonder what he’s going to think of his baby sister.  Can’t wait for her to arrive!! 

Great news!  I have just donated a portrait session and an 11×14 wall print to the silent auction at a local school BBQ.  Pope John XXIII’s annual Family BBQ is going to take place on Thursday, June 10th, 2010 from 5 – 7pm.  It’s always loads of fun for the kids; with lots of games to play and of course the great food!  Don’t forget to put in your bid on this awesome prize and support a local school while you do it.  Hope to see you there!

 

I took this photo of my sister-in-law a few weeks back before all the yucky weather came our way.  She just had her birthday last week (don’t worry, I won’t say which one!) and thought she deserved a little spotlight.  I should add she does not feel she is photogenic…but I think this shot says otherwise. 🙂

Happy Mother’s day to all moms!  I had a great time meeting up with fellow photographer Rowena.  In honour of Mother’s day, we took turns taking photos of us with our kiddies.  Her boys were not ones to sit still, so I had to be quick before they ran off to the park with my munchkins.  Here’s a couple I wanted to share.

I had the pleasure of meeting with this little family last weekend.  I couldn’t believe she was 38 weeks along!  (I know I wished I looked that great at 38 weeks pregnant.)  And don’t forget their spunky little two year old; bright eyed and FULL of energy.  For some reason I kept calling the little one in her belly a ‘HE’, even though they don’t know what they are having yet.  We’ll have to wait and see if I’m right.  (Luckily it won’t be too long of a wait.)  I had a great time with you guys, and good luck with everything!!
