My own materntiy session
Candy Good To Know! Friday, July 30th 2010 4
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!!
“When working with newborns it is important to find not only an amazing photographer but also a photographer that works amazingly with newborns. Alana has children of her own and her motherly nature shows. She handled our baby as if her own and I was worry free the entire photo shoot. Being a first time mom, everything is scary but having Alana come to our home and work her magic was more than I could have asked for!”
