Pardy time

The Pardy's are a young & sweet family. We spent a beautiful sunday afternoon taking photos down in Fish Creek Park . These children were absolutely gorgeous, with their white blonde hair and sparkling blue eyes. The loving dynamic this family had was so great. The children both so curious & energetic. There were a few bribes and tricks going on to keep interest going, but all in all it was a fantastic day with gorgeous photos to prove it.  

Warm September nights

Theres something to be said about warm nights. Especially when they happen in September, and especially in Calgary! We were all stunned by the forceful and awful snowpocolypse a couple weeks ago, so its nice to be back to our normal temperatures. I was nervous for a minute that we wouldn't even get fall, straight to winter, but luckily it all melted away and slowly all the broken branches are being cleaned up and the leaves are starting to turn beautiful shades of orange & yellow.

On one of these pleasent evenings, I had the pleasure to photograph my longtime good friend Suzanne and her little family. We had such perfect conditions, and created such beautiful photos. This little family is sweet as can be, complete with Charlie the dog. Color coordinated and picture ready, we took a walk through some trees, with little Abby stealing the show. Such a doll. I loved how she walked through the brush and would hand pick special twigs and grasses and give them to me as little gifts.  

Good things come in small packages...

Babies are the best. Hands down, the sweetest little bundles ever imaginable. Everyone loves to hold, cuddle & smell them.  I know I love being around them, and understand that a newborn shoot is different than others. These little needy beings come first. There's lots of feeding, changing, positioning. I've actually yet to come across a sleeping baby for my sessions. But I love the wide eyed wonderment in their eyes.

This little beauty is Lauren. Daughter to Lisa & Darren, from a previous maternity post. She is the spitting image of her mom. Such a beautiful little girl. And as sweet as can be. She was so good for our session. We did these photos at their house. I can't stress how perfect it is as a backdrop for photos. I'm looking forward to watching her grow into a sweet little girl.
