{Newborn} Alexander Mark

The first time I met this family, they had two boys...Zach was the proud big brother of his not-too-little brother, Masen. Now those two boys are even bigger and they have a sweet little brother to smother love.

The forecast was for crazy hot heat, near 40 Celsius, but it didn't get to that point and there was even a breeze. Poor Alex just wanted to be held by Mommy, so while this was a newborn session, the older two got a bit more attention than we had planned. But we still snapped some shots of Alex in the short moments he was happily on his own.

I love seeing clients, especially the little ones, when they've grown a bit...or a lot, and this was no exception. Thanks, Joel & Jen for meeting with me and letting me meet your newest little boy!

{Family} Mark & Bobbi

The first time I did a session for this family was about two years ago when we met up at Centennial Beach. We decided to stay in the area and hit two different locations, starting first at a well-known tobogganing hill (in winter, of course...although you can go ice-blocking there in the summer) and then down to the beach. It was a beautiful summer evening!

Can I just say...I had FUN. The kids were wildly excited in the best possible way. Super giggly and affectionate, being silly with me and the whole bit. Seriously, such a great time and it was one of my only summer sessions so it was extra awesome! And their eyes? As amazing and blue as last time!

Thanks to the five of you for spending a summer evening with me...like I said, I loved it and you guys are so much fun to spend an evening with!

{Children} Maysa's One

Maysa recently turned one and I was super excited when Sarah asked me to do a 1-year-old session with her. We met at Williams Park on a perfectly warm day and celebrated one of the most smiley babies I've ever met!

I seriously had such a blast with this session - Maysa is so happy and having the opportunity to focus on just one child is so awesome! And ending the session with a little cupcake smash was pretty great too!

Happy Birthday Maysa!





{Big sister Cali was on hand to have some fun too!}
