Noah & Asher | Fort Langley Family Session

I first photographed Matt and Carolyn back when Noah was a newborn.   Then there was the pregnancy announcement, Asher's newborn photos, and now some family photos to celebrate their anniversary!  There are several families that I have photographed multiple times over the years and I'm thankful for their continued support. I think they have covered every location for photography; home, studio, nature and now architecture/buildings!  Love the variety.

Carolyn is a blogging mama so we've kept in touch through the online world for years now.  I know sometimes parents think their kids will be way too wild for photos but if you just relax (and bring some chocolate chips), you'll usually get some frame worthy photos.  

Enjoy!
Happy anniversary Matt and Carolyn!  Love, Louise

Adrianna & Willem | Ellwood Park Family Photos

I took photos of Jackie and Harvie last spring when they were expecting little Willem and now he's here!  Somehow they had some rain during their session last year and even more this time.  So, with a last minute location change to Ellwood Park, we were able to do the session under cover.

This family is soooo adorable and I love the navy blue in their photos.  In case you are new here, if I post a picture in black and white, they also get that photo in colour as I know some people aren't the biggest fans of black and white.  Just saying :)

These photos were taken over the Mother's Day weekend and I just think it's SUCH a great gift for a mom.  Who wouldn't want family photos?  And the photos of Harvie with the kids? So cute as we think forward to Father's Day.  They found daddy pretty hilarious.  Jackie and Harvie, you have an awesome family.

Love, Louise

Dan & Nicole | Deer Lake Engagement Photos



Dan and Nicole are highschool sweethearts that met and started dating back in grade 10.  After 10 years of dating, they will be getting married at the end of August.  They are really laid back and friendly, and seriously, how photogenic are they?!   Deer Lake is gorgeous right now with the garden in bloom.  It's such a versatile place and we are looking forward to doing their wedding photos there too!  Congratulations on your engagement, Dan and Nicole.  It was great to spend some time together and I hope the rest of the wedding planning goes really well.

Love, Louise and Gary

Baby Rachel | Newborn Session

Welcome, baby Rachel!  She is sweet and little and her daddy is pretty smitten (her mommy too, but I love to see dads head over heels).  I did engagement photos for Shawna and Ryan 3 years ago and then did their extended family photos two years ago.  So great to see them again, and this time, as parents.  Congratulations Shawna and Ryan, it was so great to catch up with you two and meet your beautiful baby girl.

Congratulations!
Love, Louise

Baby Livia | Newborn Session

I first met Lael and Steve about 2 years ago when their son, Jacob, was just 8 months old.  I met up with them again for Jacob's 2nd birthday photos (so cute!).  And now?  They've added a sweet little girl, Livia, to their family.  I love doing newborn photos in people's homes and especially when they have an amazing amount of natural light.  It's just so...cozy.  I have to say, it was so great to see photos I've taken on their walls :)  Lael, like me, has a thing for black and whites.

Big brother Jacob did such a great job with his little sister and little Miss Livia was super relaxed the whole time.  Enjoy the newborn cuteness!

Congratulations Lael and Steve!  She's here and she's wonderful.
Love, Louise
