My new bundle of boy!

August 31, 2010

I thought I would finally introduce our new baby boy, Blaine.  He is the sweetest little thing if I do say so myself!

Here he is just 4 days old.


Given our new arrival, the studio will be closed temporarily and reopen early October.  Please feel free to contact us via email to book your session.  We will be returning messages daily.

Please note October is nearly booked, with only 4 appointments available.

    Congrats! He is gorgeous! Love the images!

This family won our silent Auction donation for Southwood Public School this past spring and we opted for a uber cool urban session.

Even thought we went out bright and early, the day was sweltering! Mom came prepared for anything, complete with cooler and chilled water.  The kids were GREAT!  I have to say it was hard to stop after an hour.

Could he get any cuter?  This little one came sporting the latest in Huggies Fashion!

HOT off the runway in Paris, right to our studio ;)

Next time he’ll be sitting up and playing with toys….I can’t wait!!

These two adorable brothers are part of our AMP Life club and I get the privilege of seeing them every year!! This year big brother is 4 and little bro is 2.  Good bye baby curls and hello big boys!

    What a handsome group of young boys. The image of the youngest blonde with blue eyes- my how I get lost in them- just beautiful!

My own materntiy session

July 30, 2010

I want to share with you all some images that are very special to me. We are expecting our third and last child at then end of August.  We are just beginning to get wrapped up in all things baby again, diapers, bottles, car seats; new cars (because 3 car seats don’t fit in my trusty CRV), zillions of toys that rattle and shake across the floor; baby swings, strollers… the list is endless.   My two little mommies (my girls) are beyond excited and give their new brother huggs and kisses every day.  What I wanted was to slow down for a minute, to stop and think and dream about this baby like I had the luxury of doing with our first.  I also wanted images of me that represented how I feel so that I can look at them and remember, so that he can see how loved he was even before he was born.

Needless to say as a specialist in maternity images I knew what I wanted, and honestly, there really is no way to photograph yourself (let alone yourself with your own kids and husband) and still recreate that emotion.  That’s where John comes in.  Brand new to Canada he came with years of talent and experience.  He took the style I  love and created the most beautiful images of my family.

Thank you John for all your work.  (Your assistant was a joy to work with as well.)

You have to check out his site.  John specializes in corporate photography and amazing photo-journalistic weddings.

His unique style and bold for color will make you want to get married all over again just to get new images!!

    All I can say is WOW! You look stunning, and the family shots are a treasure.

    You look amazingly great! Love them all, but the backlit ones are especially stunning-

This Durham Region family just added their fifth member!  I was so thrilled to capture the maternity images for their last child and now he’s here!!

You have to love his hair!!  I so love tiny babies with wild hair!

And his big sisters just adore him!

I can’t wait to see him at his next session, all full of smiles!!

    Ellen {Kalamazoo MI photographer} posted the following on July 27, 2010 at 3:35 am.

    These are so sweet and peaceful- and his hair is just the best!

For those of you who follow on Facebook, I promised a look at another newborn session.  This little one and his big sister just melted my heart. So for something a little different, click on the image above.  It’s the front cover of his Newborn album and the link is to the rest of the 20 pages.  I just love the simplicity of the it all.

Feel free to pop back here and leave a comment.  Enjoy!

    Terrific article! I like your site, Please update it more frequently.

So this past week we decided to take a moment and spend some time before our new price arrives up in Muskoka.  I love it up there.  The air smells so fresh, the company is always great and our girls always have such a great time.   You know, even when it rains it’s peaceful.

Instead of showing off my beautiful (yet somehow oh so dirty) little angels, I though I would share some of the simple yet inspirational wild life I came across.

Enjoy!! Tomorrow I’ll be back with more brand new babies :)

What a great evening!! These guys were amazing to work with.

The boys were full of energy and yet were so cooperative.

Even the sun and clouds cooperated! With everyone’s lives being so busy and parents and grandparents being super busy, running off in all different directions,

thanks for getting everyone together in one place at one time!
