I photographed Brittany and James’ rustic farm wedding back in 2014, and a few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to meet and photograph the new addition to their family: baby Audrey.
There’s an undeniable feeling of joy and wonder in the air in their little family, and I felt so blessed to have been able to capture these. For these guys, home is Saturday morning in bed and your loved ones are by your side.
I met Micaela, her two boys and her partner Morgan at Alexander Muir Gardens on a summer evening for some maternity photography. The boys certainly added a lot of fun into the session! They ran around barefoot, photo bombed us when they weren’t in the photos. They reminded me why I love photographing children so much – their genuineness, authenticity, how easy it is to connect with them. They haven’t spent years building up facades; if they are happy, they will laugh; if they are sad or angry, they will cry. Parents, even if you don’t get professional photos taken, take lots of photos yourself – not the posed kinds, but capturing the everyday moments. Because they don’t stay that way forever. But I guess that’s why those years are so precious.
If this lovely family looks familiar, it’s because I photographed Kelly and Mike’s wonderful country backyard wedding 1.5 years ago. Last August they welcomed their baby boy Matthew, and I was lucky enough to be invited back to document a new chapter in life together. I love these connections I’m able to make through the work I work.
A belated welcome to baby Matthew! Hope I will see more of all of you guys in the future. :)
Lisa and I used to work together. She also designed my original logo. So I was thrilled when she contacted me about photographing her bump! Lisa and Dave met back in high school, so for this session we went back to where it all started: Appleby college.
Congratulations you two! I can’t wait to meet your little one!
Meet baby Benjamin, or as his parents call him, Benji. I had first photographed him while he was still in his mom’s belly just a month earlier. Life is marvellous.
Big brothers Clark and Ralph joined in for some photos too.
It was 2 weeks before Christmas and I couldn’t help but grab a shot of al the stockings.
It rained on this particular early November morning for Katie’s maternity session. I had just gotten back from the sunny Caribbean a few days before, and was still getting used to the damp Fall weather we were having. The rain kept us from being outdoors for this session so Katie and Bryan invited me into their beautiful home for an indoor, at-home session. They shared some laughs over random baby books and shared their hopes for their little one with me.
Here are some of my favourites from the session. Baby Benji’s newborn session will be up soon!
Here are baby Benji’s older brothers: Clark & Ralph :)
