Nicolas will find no shortage of love as he grows up in a home with 4 older siblings. His family belongs to a spectacular community at Capernwray Québec where they really come together as a village to raise not only the children but each other up. I think Nicolas (Nico) is pretty swell as him and I share a birthday!
The other day I posted a sneak peek of Baby Emily. To say that I was excited to work on these images would be a bit of an understatement. Eric and Jodi have been creating a home filled with love for 2 1/2 yr old Samantha, so it is only natural that their home is such an inviting place of love for Emily as she joins the family. Emily is already noticeably comfortable in her new surroundings, she was one of the most relaxed babies I’ve ever had the pleasure of photographing.
Emily is nine days old. She managed to pee on three of my blankets but other than that she was very cooperative. Here’s a sneak peek of our session from this morning.
A while ago, I sneak peeked a photoshoot for Travis. After his shoot, things got pretty busy for me and my family as we moved and as a result, I haven’t blogged in quite some time. I really wanted to get Travis’ pictures up before now, but here they are.
Travis’ dad is a sound engineer and a gifted worship leader and so we incorporated some props to go along with those interests. Travis is also an excellent communicator as his mom is a certified baby sign instructor, however He didn’t really want to talk to me or the camera.
Travis’ parents and I have been planning this shoot for almost a year! When Travis was born they approached me to say that they would like to do a shoot as soon as things got a little less busy. If you’ve ever parented a newborn, you know that they’ve simply given up on that idea and went ahead and booked a time to shoot.
Here’s one from this afternoon
Ben turns one next week so it was time to introduce him to the wonders of cake!! Armed with cupcakes from Pusateri’s we set out on our matchmaking adventure. After a reluctant interaction with chocolate, Ben found his true love in the form of vanilla bean icing!
Now there’s one thing that you can be sure of when you’re doing a cake smash photoshoot, if there’s a dog in the vicinity, he’s going to find his way into the pictures! Tucker is one cute puppy, but there was very little convincing Ben of that!
Remember Hilary June? We had a wonderful photo session last Friday. She slept, as they say, like a baby through the whole thing. I’ve never met a more content and cooperative baby. Tim and Amber are incredibly excited to be new parents and it seems as though Hilary is pretty pleased herself.
It seems as though Tim’s love of super heros is going to experience some great challenges in the near future. Hilary may, in fact, have just earned herself the name Super Woman
