Cake SMASH with Miss. Natalie

August 1st, 2011

cant believe that Miss. Natalie will be 1 tomorrow!  I was honoured to shoot her newborn photos for her, and was again honoured when her mom asked me about a cake smash.

I have never done a cake smash before but I know that they dont always go as planned.  Sometimes the child may just not be in the mood, or just doesnt want to ‘smash’.  Natalie however made my job very easy;).  As soon as the cake was in front of her she went right for it and had a ‘smashing’ good time=).

Happy Birthday Natalie!!

HOT Maternity shoot…

July 23rd, 2011

When Sue contacted me to do her maternity shoot we had no idea how hot it would be.  Even at 9 am the temperature was close to 30, but felt a LOT hotter. 

However as hot as it was, you wouldnt have guessed by looking at the photos.  Sue and Dave were both glowing with excitement and anticiaption of the arrival of their little bundle. 

I had a great time and I cant wait till October!

Beautiful day for a country drive…

July 13th, 2011

Last Sunday it was such a beautiful summer day, so as soon as my son and husband went down for their naps I went out for a drive around our area with my camera right beside me.  It was a perfect day and I couldnt help but share some images with you=)

Hope your all enjoying your summer!

Floral Beauty

July 8th, 2011

Just over 4 years ago I married my husband.  The day was perfect and life after that couldnt be better.  However I remember the stress of planning that ‘perfect’ day; you need to find ‘the’ dress, the cake, the venue, the photographer, the flowers, and the list goes on.  The flowers however were an easy decision for us.  Jony went to the same church as us and we had seen the beautiful work she had done in the past for weddings so it was without a doubt that we wanted her to be our florist as well.  And she didnt disappoint. 

Fast forward 4 years later and she has done my brother in laws wedding, my father in laws wedding, and numerous friends weddings and they all have amazing reviews of how special the flowers turned out. 

Here are a couple photos from my wedding and my sister in laws wedding:

Summertime fun

Perfect Sunlight and an adorable little man…

June 4th, 2011

If I could shoot from 6pm to 8pm every night I would. I LOVE that warm golden sun as its setting. It just makes everything warm and inviting.

This past week I met “”M” and “K” and little Kieran(love this name!) just after 6 and it was perfect! From his adorable smile, to the love that his parents have for him, it was a great shoot.

I hope your enjoy your sneak peak! =)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A little white and a little black…

June 3rd, 2011

I love black and white images.  Dont get me wrong, I LOVE colour, but I absolutely love how black and white images really allows you to focus on the emotion of the image. 

I did this shoot a couple weeks ago and as I was editing I knew that I wanted to do this post in black and white.  This family has been blessed with a 4th child, and I know there isnt a day that goes by that they dont cherish baby Jacob.

Thank you for allowing me into your home.  You are a very special family and God has blessed you with a beautiful little boy.
