I love newborns

I just love them. This little sweetheart was a bit older, 1 month old, but still as sweet as sugar.Having a three year old at home makes me appreciate those little babies even more.They don’t try to run away when you take their photograph.

Crazy Cat!

This cat looks SO big here! It was such a cute, fluffy cat. Or lion. I’m not quite sure.It let me take its photo though, so it was a nice lion.

It’s ALIVE!

This little man was all grins while I was there! He has the most gorgeous blue eyes, and looks so much like his mom. This session was a blast, I loved how open this family was. I think we took pictures in every room in their house, which was awesome!

Travis is Calgary’s Child! His first cover, and mine too. This little guy is a total sweetheart, how many 3 year olds do you know that say ma’am and sir? I’m proud to have taken a photo of such a cute little guy that ended up being on the cover of a magazine.The September/October

Ahhhh, another from the same session. I couldn’t resist this one for some reason!

Lake Bonavista is a beautiful place, especially at sunset. I had the pleasure of photographing a gorgeous mother/son combo at the lake a few weeks ago. It was a fun and relaxed session, with a truly lovely setting.

Where are the girls?Out of all of my newborn sessions recently, not a single girl has been born!I’m assuming that means that my own surprise baby will end up being a girl.This little man here was happiest on his back in a laundry basket, I’ll have to remember that tip when my new one

The parents of this newborn session were so fun to take photos of. They had a nice relaxed attitude, and really made things quite smooth. They mentioned how much the dad looked like the new little man, but I never noticed until I got to this picture!They are a gorgeous family, and I wish them all
