I had a lovely little lady come to visit last week. She slept peacefully, except for when she didn’t, but that wasn’t for long. We managed to put her into most of the positions we wanted to, and I got to use my little black garage sale suitcases again!
I absolutely love the shot below. She reminds me of a 20′s flapper girl, with the cute feathery headpiece.
This is another one of those families who does very well in documenting their lives through pictures. I’m sure I mentioned it when I posted their last family session, but I’ve been there with them through every major event. Here we have baby #2 to welcome to the family, and we captured her within days of her birth. I have had the little hammock for ages, but have never gotten a shot with it. I was so happy she was such a peaceful and content little lady. She was a perfect model for it 
I can say in all honesty that trying to get a picture with a toddler and a newborn is virtually impossible. I try as hard as I can every time to get the siblings together, but in most cases, it’s a very difficult shot to get. That being said, I am soo stinkin’ proud of this image! Not because I’m so amazing, because I didn’t have much to do with the success of this, but because this little man is such a good listener. When I asked him to take off his shirt, put his head on his sister’s back and not smile, he did it! Unbelievable. Thanks so much dude
A few short weeks ago I photographed this family before their new arrival. It’s a few posts back, and it was an amazing session for me. I absolutely loved it. When they came back last week with their new baby girl, I was so excited! She was an absolute doll, sleeping outside in the breeze with not so much as a peep.
Casey was running around playing in the yard and I had set my second camera in my bag on the grass where I was shooting. He picked it up and took a bunch of me while I was working. Both boys tend to like grabbing the camera and shooting, so I may have a few helpers in a couple years. :)
As many of you know, I decided not to take any weddings in August of this year, but instead chose to go on the road and shoot a few family sessions. I grew up in Meadow Lake and so I threw it out there if anyone wanted pictures at the lakes in the Meadow Lake Provincial Park (the BEST park in Saskatchewan by the way!) I’d come up and shoot. It ended up that I booked a few sessions in Saskatoon on either side of my Meadow Lake trip as well, so it was a terrific time on the road, shooting in a different spot every day. I went to Jeanette Lake, Loon Lake and Kimball Lake, as well as all over the beautiful city of Saskatoon, including the Forestry Farm and the downtown area. I absolutely loved getting away again, and exploring the city of bridges in between sessions. Thanks to everyone who booked in, and I thank you for your patience with me! Being on location for 8 days and being away from the computer means a TON of files to go through once all the fun of travelling is over! Enjoy I know it’s been a long time since I posted anything!
I have been loving all these newborns lately. This sweetheart was no exception. I photographed his big brother a year and a half ago, and his momma for both pregnancies, so they’re regulars around here! The first shot, with the little tie on the tshirt, mom made that! It was so cute, and it matched the blanket exactly. It was a 2 1/2 hour trip for mom, grandma and the boys to come for this session, so I’m so happy that everyone did so well. I could post another dozen shots from the session, there were so many keepers.
There have been a lot of babies around here lately! I’m really enjoying all the snuggling with them. Here’s another sweetheart from earlier this week. He’s a little older than a fresh newborn, but still pretty teeny.
I could have cuddled with this guy all day long. He was so super soft and cozy! And look at this little smile he had when mom and dad put their hands on him! True, he may likely have just been sneaking out a little fart, but it was perfect timing!
This sweet family came in this morning from the city to get newborn photos done of their baby girl. It took us a little bit of time to get her comfortable and ready for her photo shoot, but once we got her cozy and sleeping, we were able to get a bunch of great shots. Thanks for making the drive out guys.
On the weekend, I headed out near Regina to photograph my husband’s cousin’s family, and their new little man. He wasn’t quite newborn anymore (born just before Christmas), but we somehow got a few sleeping newbornish type poses at the end. He was such a happy little guy, and the kid’s playroom was so amazingly colorful and bright and cheery. I loved it! Thanks for the visit guys.
Well, even though I’m technically on my little mini time off break, I needed to make an exception for my wonderful neighbor. She had her little girl the other day, and I promised her a newborn session when she was born. When I first went to meet her a few days ago, I was in awe of her eyelashes. Just like her daddy’s. I knew as soon as we did the session, that was definately something I had to capture. This picture doesn’t even do them justice. They are soooo long! I can’t wait to see her grow up and get to be a small part of her life. Her mommy has also been our childcare provider for the past two years, and she’s an awesome person to know. Congratulations guys!! Your little girl is a blessing to you, as well as so many others.
