A New Newborn Favorite

Hey there,
This was definitely one of my favorite shoots to date. There were some great places to shoot in this client's home, and we took our time to get it just right. I have many favorites, some of which are below.
Thanks for looking.

#1 - On the kitchen counter


#2 - On his older brother's bed


#3 - In Papa's strong arms


#4 - Nestling with Mama


#5 - In the window - possibly my favorite of the whole shoot


#6 - Sweet



#7 - Stop bothering me...


#8 - Back in the cocoon

A dog and his...

...rival! This duo was just too cute when we were attempting to shoot them on the bed. First off, the dog is normally NEVER allowed on the bed, so suffice to say that he was totally confused about that development :-). To top it off, that red ball was just calling his name. Fortunately, we got the shot (and then some). Kudos to both dog and sweet baby for pulling it off!

A new favorite

Hi Everyone,
Every once in a while, I come across a picture I've taken that becomes a new favorite. Such is the case for #1 - below. This family of 3 (originally), suddenly became a family of 5 overnight. These pictures do a great job - in my humble opinion - of disguising the chaos that is to come.
Thanks for looking.

#1 - Proud Papas


#2 - Proud new sister :-)

A Chilly Day at the Beach

As the subject line suggests, it was a windy and very cool day down at The Beaches in Toronto. Despite hats, runny noses, and sleeves pulled over hands - all went well, and both of these kids were real troopers. Their favorite part was definitely the actual beach and water - which we visited only in the last 5 minutes or so. I mean, hey, what are beach pics without the beach!

The small chair in the second picture was a gift from a friend of mine with 5 kids, who had used it for all of their 1 year old portrait sessions. Alas, after child #5 turned 1, my friend passed on the chair to me - as she was quite sure she wasn't having any more kids :-). Suffice to say that I have used that chair many times since. So - thanks Cindi Loo!

Sigh...those yummy newborns :-)

This is definitely a new favorite for me. I loved the purple comforter and the muslin baby wrap - accentuated with beautiful sunshine. Newborns are not necessarily classically beautiful (as we all know), but I must say that this little princess was stunning. Her sister was clearly happy to have her around as well :-).

Thanks for looking.

Two Under Two

These two children were so vibrant in their personalities. The young boy was non-stop fun, and the little girl was as sweet as pumpkin pie.

Now Taking Visa & Mastercard

I think the subject line pretty much says it all :-). I'm officially on board with credit cards now, so I thought that I'd better let people know.

A Moment of Serenity...

...in a time of bewilderment and exhaustion.

I had to share this picture as this new mother has the most wonderful look on her face. Sometimes I find that parents with their first baby are nervous and worried at the photo session, especially since the baby is usually under 2 weeks old. This Mom was as relaxed as could be, and game for anything. What a lucky little girl to have such a laid back Mamma!

Thanks for looking.

A Morning at the Beach

It's been a while since I've been shooting down at the beach, so it was refreshing to get back there recently. It's safe to say that all (or most) children seem to love the beach. What's not to love - sand, water, and rocks! Pure bliss when you are a youngster.

Thanks for looking.

Mini Session Madness

These were my first official Limited Edition Mini Sessions, and the jury is still out as to whether I will be doing them again anytime soon :-). I was very happy with the end result (i.e. the pictures), but I must confess I found it all very hectic. I am accustomed to taking time to work with each child, and I only had a small window to work with. Thus, I was truly frazzled at the end of it all. Below you will find a small sampling of the fruits of my labour that day.
Thanks for looking.
