Brothers

Please don't tell my husband but there is a new man in my life... he is so sweet, has the most gorgeous eyes and is 3 years old!  This session was an amazing experience.  It was a fun-filled morning where everyone was relaxed and it allowed me to capture the family naturally.  The two stars of the session were Matthew and Colin.  Matthew is the 3 year old and was such a happy little guy who loves any and all types of trucks.  I could point to any truck in his book and he knew the name of it.  He even taught me a few new ones that morning!  At one point, he was playing with a block and I asked him what colour it was and he responded, "a shade of red"!  How cute is that!  Then there was his sweet little brother, Colin, who is 8 months old.  He had such a great temperament and absolutely adored his big brother.  He would constantly crawl to wherever Matthew was just to be near him.  I love the bond brothers have and it was so wonderful to be able to capture those moments for Matthew and Colin to look back upon someday.  Cathy and Jamie, you have two beautiful boys and I was so happy to photograph your family.  I really hope you enjoy your sneak peek and I really can't wait to share with you all of the photos from our session.

 

Adorable Abigail

I am so excited to be able to share this session on my Blog finally.  Abigail's Mommy and Daddy contacted me before I left for Europe to do the session; however, the photos were a surprise for their family and friends.  This past weekend the photos were shared amongst the family.  What can I say about Abigail that isn't evident in the photos.  She was a gorgeous true to life doll that had the best temprament.  She slept the entire time and didn't mind me posing her in all kinds of different positions.  Her parents were so relaxed and laid back and I thoroughly enjoyed spending the afternoon getting to know everyone better.  I work with Abigail's grandmother every so often and I was just bursting with excitement to capture these precious moments of her new grandaughter.  Shannon, Dan, Eleaner and the rest of the family, I hope you love the photos.  You definitely have a special and beautiful new addition to your family.

Happy First Birthday, Liam!

I have mentioned before how I love to photograph repeat babies to document exactly how much they have grown!  Liam's Mommy trusted me enough when I first started photographing babies to capture him when he was only 8 weeks old.  He  was a tiny little guy then.  I was so excited to hear that I would be photographing him again as he was about to turn one!  Andrea and Jonathan are dear friends from school and it was so wonderful to spend the morning with them here in Halifax.  We started our session in the park and then ended back at my house.  I had a vision of a family portrait on my new chair in the woods.  This vision meant that poor Jonathan had to drag my chair through the park for me.  Thanks for being such a sport, J!  I hope it was worth it!  Liam is the happiest little guy and has eyes that will melt your heart.  It was very tough for me to pick a few favorites from the session.  Andrea and Jonathan, I hope you enjoy your sneak peek and I am so excited to share the whole session with you.





 
 
Here is a photo of Liam last July...

British Baby

Imagine how honoured I was to photograph a precious little 6 week old who travelled to Nova Scotia all the way from the UK!  Meet the beautiful, Miss Finley Rose.  I had a wonderful afternoon getting to know all of the family that included four generations of women.  I loved that Finley's Mom and Dad had visions of different photographs they had hoped to capture.  Hopefully, I have lived up to what they had envisioned.  I was so excited to do some skin to skin photographs of baby and Mom.  This photo literally takes my breath away.  It is such a beautiful moment between mother and daughter and can you believe how gorgeous Finley's Mom is!  Music is very important to both families and Dad really wanted a photo with a guitar.  I love how this turned out.  If you look closely, you will see Finley's little curl on the side of her head.  I love that little detail!  They also wanted a photo of Finley laying in rose petals to give honour to her middle name.  Kaitlyn and Mark, I hope you enjoy your sneak peek.  You will probably be reading this first thing in the morning over in England so I hope it adds some excitement to your day.  I also hope it was worth all of those countless visits you have made to my Blog looking for a glimpse of your photos:)

   

Happy Mother's Day!

I have been thinking about all of the mommies I have met during the last year today.  For most of them, this was their very first Mother's Day and I hope you celebrated it well with your beautiful babies.  You are all amazing women who work so hard to keep your families healthy and happy and you definitely deserved a day of pampering and extra love. 

Since I don't have any children of my own, I will post the next best thing... my niece, Reaghan.  We had a little photo session last weekend that included living room furniture being dragged to the backyard!  My husband acted as my assistant and artistic director:)  He even fanned the budding model with a cookie sheet!  Reaghan was such a good sport and I am sure we will have lots of other photo shoots in the future as long as she wasn't too traumatized from the experience!  Thank you for being so cooperative, Reaghan! (Love Aunt Kerianne and Uncle Court xo)

Angelic Ava

This was the last session I managed to squeeze in before leaving for Europe and I am so glad we were able to.  Ava was so sweet and had the most easy going personality.  I look at her photos and she appears so much older to me than just 9 weeks.  I think it is the eye contact she was giving me.  She loved looking straight at the camera. She has gorgeous blue eyes and dark brown hair.  It was such a nice relaxing morning and I thoroughly enjoyed the session!  Glenn and Jennifer, I hope you enjoy your photos of your beautiful baby girl!

Gorgeous Keaton

This is the little guy of a friend of mine from many years ago.  I think we first met in grade primary at the age of five.  And I have to say that I think she is officially the most excited client I have had so far.  She was so looking forward to the session and I know has been eagerly awaiting a sneak preview of her little man's photos.  Keaton is a gorgeous baby boy.  He has the most beautiful big blue eyes and the sweetest little heart shaped lips.  He has the most easy-going personality as well.  Despite the fact he travelled a long distance to have his photos taken and although he had a busy weekend, he was still more than happy to pose and smile for the camera.  I think the excitement of it all may have caught up with him at the end of the session because he actually fell asleep.  I couldn't believe that I was able to capture photos of a 5 month old all curled up in slumber.  Nicolle, I hope you enjoy your sneak peek.  It is just a small glimpse of the many beautiful images of your sweet Keaton.

Sweet Sophie

This little 9 month old baby girl has the most infectious smile.  She was so happy to have her photograph taken and loved posing for the camera.  If she started to look elsewhere or get a little bored with the process, Sophie's Mommy would just start singing "Miss Molly" and she would instantly break out into a huge big smile.  I had never heard the children's song before but now can't get it out of my head.  It is now a definite favorite of mine.  Sophie's eyes are so endearing.  When I first saw her, I immediately thought she reminded me of the Gerber baby.  Jenn and Sean, I had a fantastic morning photographing your family.  There are so many favorites from the session and I know you will be so thrilled with your album.  I can't wait for you to see the whole session.
