SNOW !

First real snow of the year, so we headed out to play with one of our little buddies.

He was especially photogenic and happy to be photographed !

One day I'll have to feature the smaller/younger version of this boy- cuteness clearly runs in this family. 

I did manage to get a few of my little man too.  He wasn't as excited to have his photo taken, which is why I love the challenge of photographing others.

I'm loving the rosey cheeks on these two !

We sure lucked out on weather for today's family session !  I had a beautiful family of three, at my favorite time of day- nearing sunset.  The little man was such a sweetie- and so generous with his smiles !  I'll answer two quick questions I know you will have once you see these pics.  1) yes, the fall colours really were that magical and  2) yes, this little man really is THAT absolutely adorably cute !  (ohh those blue eyes !!!)

Enjoy the preview !




 Seriously, this gorgeous little face is awesome
Modelling portfolio ?

 I love natural moments.....
 Coming up on their 5th anniversary- congrats guys !

Family photo shoots have to be one of my favorite types to do.  Maybe it's because I'm a parent myself, but I always want to capture the love and emotion between parents and their children.  I've photographed this family before, and got one of my all time favorite shots of the little man and his dad.  It was an image that I thought just moved me and showed the strong connection between father and son.  This was the image.


Fast forward almost a year ahead.  I was privileged to shoot them again.  They are such a nice family, but it's funny, I feel an intense need to please this dad with my images more then anyone else I've shot.  It's totally pressure from within because like I said, they are the nicest family.  But I really want him to like these.  I think he's the dad who will give me honest feedback, will tell me if I got it right or wrong- which I actually really appreciate from a learning perspective.  Hey, as a photographer I want my clients to love the images, and I appreciate them trusting me to capture their family.  So here are a few previews of tonight's session.  Did I get it right Kev?  :)




We threw a little outdoor party for the little man's upcoming third birthday !  Ohh what fun it was !!

 September is coming to a close, but the weather here in Kamloops is still pretty good.  This afternoon I had the pleasure of photographing this adorably stylish little dude.  I asked his mom to jump in for a few shots.  As the mother of a boy, I'm partial to these kind of warm, affectionate images. 
 My favorite has to be this first one. 
 I love seeing a beautiful smile on a mother's face as she looks at her happy child.  
As a photographer I love to capture that emotion, and as a mother, I hope my son sees that smile and love coming from me to him everyday.

While I was in Calgary I had the opportunity to photograph this sweet little girl.

Little Miss Olivia and my son were born ten days apart.

  Her mom and I have known each other since we were both just a few weeks pregnant. 

 We are part of a very special group of ladies. 

Here are some of the images from the session. 

(ps- I DARE you not to squish these adorable cheeks ! )

While in Calgary I was invited out to this family's home for the photo shoot.  They live a bit out of town on a beautiful golf course with sweeping views.  The weather was beautiful on the day of our shoot- but sometimes the bright sun works against a photographer, so the best view wasn't able to be captured as well as we would have liked.  But you work with what you've got, and I think we managed to capture some nice images of this very sweet family.  I hope you enjoy your photo preview !


sweet sweet little boys


Such a nice family




 the littlest guy had the BEST smile here, so what better way to highlight it, and show how small and sweet he is?





 Brotherly love

These images are from the last family session I posted.  I thought they deserved their own blog post because they were so cute.  The two older boys were just goofing around, and I was able to capture these fun images.

I'll title the series of shots....
Spontaneous Kiss-Fest 
:)





One of the things I always say I want to capture is emotion.  I love being able to shoot the un-posed fun moments that kids sometimes just give you.  This has been one of the 
B  E  S  T 
set of images I think I've been able to capture.  Definitely personal favorites for me !

This beautiful mommy manages 4 adorable kids.  Two older boys and twins- one boy and one girl.
They were sooo much fun to shoot.  I was a bit nervous with four little ones to capture, but we had a great time.  I spent a large part of the session running around them as they played snapping.  Before the running, we did sit down for a few shots so we could try to capture everyone together.

Adorable kids, super nice parents and a beautiful Kamloops evening made for some fun images.  In my next post I'm dedicating it to an adorable set of photos of the older boys.

I hope you enjoy your preview !
