With a cute toque and sweater like this little guy had, we had to try at least a few outdoor shots, but the wind and chilly air was a bit too much for a baby, so we eventually moved to the studio. But at least we got a few with the leaves!

Last weekend I headed out to Whitewood to photograph a few families. It was chilly and windy for the first session, but amazingly, we did everything outside, even with 4 month old twins!  We totally lucked out with them both deciding to take a quick cat nap halfway through, and we placed them under the apple tree for some cute shots. The second family didn’t have such good luck. It started pouring rain about 15 minutes before we were supposed to shoot the session.  We met in Whitewood, hid out under trees, wooden archways, a covered deck, etc.  My camera was covered by a plastic bag, and I was completely drenched by the time we were done. But we did it!  Crazy Saskatchewan weather. You just never know what’s going to happen in this province!

Depending on how good you are with faces, and how much you follow the blog, you may recognize a set of faces within this extended family grouping. I have photographed the one family a number of times, and when it was decided that a big family picture was needed with the rest of the family, they gave me a call. I headed out to an area I’d never been before, Quinton, Sk.  Grandma had a beautiful flower bed and garden that we took advantage of, as well as a few old white fences, beautiful birch trees, and a big ol’ red barn. We had it all! Thanks for having me out, and thank you soooo much for the meal afterwards. I am still reliving memories of that incredible apple pie. THE best apple pie I have ever had, hands down.  Merci!
