Landry Family Winter 2012

This was one of my last family sessions for 2012...

Normally I prefer doing sessions outdoors, however chilly days are now upon us so we decided to keep it inside and just have some fun with it.

Kylie & Sean have a beautiful home, with some beautiful & colourful/textured walls, so I was excited to see what I could come up with...

Little Quinn was just a joy to shoot- her huge smile and face full of expressions sure made it fun for me, and I'm thrilled with the results of this wonderful session.

Enjoy Landry Family...

Padget Family 2012

This session took place on one of our final warm days of the season, actually if I recall correctly, the weather turned for the worst the following morning. So I was thrilled that we were able to make this special session happen. 

I've known Laura for many years now, and it's been wonderful watching her family grow. She, along with her brother & his family were hoping to do something special for their parents upcoming 40 year wedding anniversary...and there's nothing better than creating lasting memories. And that's exactly what we did...

Thanks for allowing me to be a part of this special occasion...

Karina's Maternity Session

This was a fabulous session, and I'm not just saying that because the main star is my little sister Karina. Okay, maybe I am- but seriously, have you ever seen such a beauty?

Her little family is about to get a little bigger with their expected son arriving in early January. We can't wait...there's absolutely NOTHING sweeter then the soft cries, and newborn scent of a baby.

Love you baby Nicolas, and love you Karina. You are an amazing mother and I know without a doubt that your baby boy will be loved beyond measure.

Enjoy your preview...

Pardo Family 2012 -Family Session

"The family is one of nature's masterpieces."

  ~George Santayana

I love this this quote, and I think it truly encompasses the overall feel of this special family session.

Carla and I have been close friends for many years, and have seen each other through many of life's trials and joys.

This past year has brought on many changes for this family, and I really wanted to do something special for them.

When considering where to shoot their yearly 'family' session, I really felt that the 'light' had to be just right. And as all photographers know, there's no better light then in the evening, just before the sun sets...perfect.

No matter where we set up, it felt as though the light followed and lit them up beautifully & combined with their inner light, I felt a sense of peace and reflection through this session...

Paula & Mike- Fall Wedding 2012

I've known Paula for a few years now, we met through our mutual friend, Steph. In fact, Steph set these two up a few years ago as they were both coming out of unhappy relationships...and guess what?
They 'clicked' instantly! Although I know that blended families can have tough beginnings, they can certainly also have sweet endings.

And that brings us to September. 15, 2012...the big day...

Paula was stunning in her gorgeous flowy dress and I loved the bright green accents that that they incorporated with shoes and ties. Super fun group, full of energy and laughter, it was a great day!

Mike & Paula, congratulations on this new journey- you both deserve happiness and acceptance. I wish you all the best, and I'm grateful to have had the chance to capture your beautiful day.

Enjoy...
