Some of you loyal blog followers may recognize this lovely couple from a previous shoot. We had so much fun the first time around we thought we would meet up once more before the wedding for a few different shots and a different more urban location. Looking forward to your wedding in September guys.
I haven't seen my very good friend in a few years and I thought it would be fun to do a little photo shoot to show her what I have been up to for the past 2yrs.
Isn't she beautiful? BTW she's single.
This is what my pool looked like after a few too many rain storms and not enough of on thing and too much of another. Needless to say unfortunately the pool just has not been quite the same since.
To those of you that have been following I am so sorry to have kept you without new blog updates. I shot this family way back in July they came out to the farm beside my house one morning very early in an effort to capture the best light and boy did we luck out with the light.
So Sweet!
For as long as I can remember I have always had the need to be creative. When my husband and I purchased our first home, everything had it's place and everything had to be done a certain way. I can't even count the amount of times people called me "Martha Stewart" I always took this a compliment.
My, how things have changed. 11 years married to my amazing husband, 3 homes and 3 children later. I no longer am accused of being too much like Martha Stewart, however my need to be creative may have dimmed a bit over the baby years it was never lost. My children now all school age.
Following the purchase my first DSLR camera I discovered this love of photography I never really knew I had. Which re-lit my creative fire that I was so desperately craving. I had always been the one to take the photos, archive, document and eventually scrapbook all these memories but never thought of it as a possible career. I thenmade the realization with loads of inspiration from Christine Kufske (Click Photography) this new found love of photography could also be a new career, which brings me to today. I always dreamed of running my own business and now my dream has become a reality.
With so many friends and fellow photographers motivation and support. I have made the leap from just doing this for fun to doing this for real and making it my new career.
My style is relaxed and carefree. I want you to be comfortable because I now that being in front of the camera isn't always the most natural place for everyone to be. I like to act a bit crazy sometimes just to get that little smirk or even a smile from the shiest of people.
I can't wait to meet with you and capture your moment in time.
This shoot took 2 days not a big deal however. They were in town visiting family and we needed a happy baby for some of their first family photos. I had so much fun with you guys, hearing all of the groovy Wiggles tunes not to mention many more that both mom and dad knew all the words to. I was so impressed. Zoom, zoom, zoom we're going to the moon...
I hope you love your new photos as much as I do.
Such a thrill to meet baby "B".
I'm not sure why but every photo shoot I have had in the past couple of weeks I have had to watch the weather. Considering the fact that I am a natural light photographer I have to get creative when the rain shows itself. I'm thinking mother nature has something to do with it.
I left my house the sun was shinning. When I arrived for the photo shoot there was a light rain. Then as if someone waved a wand the rain stopped just long enough for us to get some wonderful family shots. My son plays hockey with their older son and are also in the same class at school.
You have such a sweet little baby boy. So much love!!! Welcome Baby Wyatt!!
The cat had to get in on the photos too...what's this thing on the baby's head???
Mother's love.
Daddy's love.
I have never considered myself a weather checker until I really had to depend on the weather to be perfect or next to perfect. It rain so hard the morning of this shoot it was enough to believe that it would never end. The rain did stop and I had the pleasure of meeting with Mike and Christine at her family cottage in Barrow Bay for their engagement shoot. I am pleased and confident enough to say this was by far my favorite shoot to date. Mike and Christine you guys are so easy to get along with and so much fun. I know your wedding will truly be an unforgetable day.
The sun was just in a perfect spot in the sky to get that dreamy backlit effect that I love. I headed up to Tobermory a 40 min drive from my house and met this family at a beautiful peice of property with an apple orchard and lots of potential for a great shoot.
Andrea and I had spoke last summer about doing some business shots for her new business Hauser Homeopathy and now that she is open and has her web site up and running we thought we had best get them done. We also did some fun stuff. I must say how proud I am of my "little" cousin. She's now a doctor, how cool is that?
Congratulations Andrea, I wish you every sucess life brings your way!
Super Model Shot.
I love this one, Andrea you are a true beauty!
