Lyra & Logan | Family Photos

I'm so glad that the rescheduled day for family photos worked perfectly! This shoot was extra fun for me because Gary and I did it together. We rarely shoot together, except at weddings, so it was a nice change. We did family photos for Pam and Nolan about a year ago and look how their family has changed! Like last time, we went for a walk in a loop, and just took photos along the way...always a great idea with young kids!! Lyra and Logan are super cute and so I'll stop talking so you can see:)
{Logan is about 5 months old and super laid back.}
{Lyra is 2.5 years old and likes to do things on her own:) She is adorable!!}
{Pam and Nolan, aren't you guys cute?!}
{Below you can see Lyra's `gorgeous smile' (what she called it) and it cracked me up every time.}



{I just wanted to include a couple of out takes (with Pam and Nolan's permission:). I know people get worried that their kids will be crazy, well, all kids are a bit crazy. Don't worry, I'll capture their cuteness amongst the wildness!}
{I love Pam and Nolan being silly with Lyra's lack of desire to smile:)}

I'm glad we'll be making this an annual event, you guys are awesome. Can't wait to see Lyra's smile next year!!

My Boys

Just taking a short break from editing to show you my favourite subjects; my boys Kai and Koen. Please note that they are walking together and holding hands. All it cost me was two chocolate chips, sooooo worth it! The rest of the time was just digging up mole hills, trying to find the biggest stick and throwing leaves at each other. The life of a boy....

Mickaely Faith | Baby Photos

Beautiful little Mickaely was born a week ago and is such a little blessing to Greg and Tanya. We have been in the same care group at church for about 4 years so it's been so great to be part of their journey. Mickaely is so cute and tiny! My boys were nearly 10lbs each so they looked like 2 month olds when they were born. I love photos in natural light so we just had a mini session at our house where she was so happy and alert.



Congratulations on the birth of you beautiful daughter! I can't wait to watch her grow over the years to come.

Rebekah & Emma | Family Photos

You might recognize this family as I just did their extended family photos a couple of months ago, and well, a few other times too:) We met for a mini session in the north end of Campbell Valley Park. The girls did so well and Rebekah was able to feed some of the birds there.
{Rebekah was hilarious, she kept tickling herself to get a good smile.}
{I love purple in family photos!}




{I'm so glad we finally got a date where the weather cooperated! Your girls are fantastic and I enjoyed a nice, leisurely fall walk with you all:)}

Joshua, Ian and Noah | Family Photos

I was really excited to do this family session because I knew Paul and Hester before they had kids and hadn't really seen them much in the past 6 years. This was a great chance to get to know their three beautiful boys. Joshua, age 6, was a little hesitant with me at first (especially since he wiped out on the wet boardwalk!!). Ian, age 4, was such a clown making everyone laugh the whole time. Noah, just two months old, was pretty laid back about the whole thing! The rain was just an hour away so it was absolutely perfect.


{A lot of pictures of the boys together! Ian just wanted to hug everyone the whole time and good thing Joshua was so good about it:)}

{I think this group of black and whites are so cute...daddy with his boys!}
{Ian would do something and then ask me to take his picture. Example of this below.}



{Yippee, the fall leaves are out! This week will be a good one for photos, that's for sure!}
{And then just some photos of happy little Noah.}



{Hester and Paul, it was so great hanging out with your family. You have yourself some very adorable boys!}

Christina & Chad | Engagement Photos

What a beautiful evening at Crescent Beach! It's been a while since I've done photos there so that is always refreshing. Christina and Chad are a very sweet couple and I hope that comes across in their photos. They met at school as they had several classes together and will be getting married right before getting their business degrees. Chad's specific interest is landscape architecture so we incorporated some foliage and trees into a lot of the photos:) Enjoy!
