a few new baby announcement/thank you cards

I was working on some new cards that can be used as baby announcement and thank you cards and thought I’d share. These ones are done for a specific client, so images, text and colors can all change to suit you and your babe! Here are 2, lots more to come! These ones are featuring the beautiful Bronwyn

This is the front and back of my new 5×7 flat ‘branches’ announcement.

Tyson | Sherwood Park Baby Photographer

Last week I had this little cutie pie Tyson and his big brother Matteu (sorry, not sure if I spelled that right!). These two little boys had gorgeous, brown, bambi like eyes and Matteu was such a sweet and loving big brother. Tyson wasn’t sure about me at first and kept giving me the stink-eye, but warmed up after a little while and fell asleep in my wooden bowl for a few sleepy shots at the end.

Yesterday afternoon Shelley, Alison and I went to this beautiful old house to take some photos for my Marta Locklear workshop. It was cold and windy but they were troopers for me the whole time. As I was editing these I was just stunned at how beautifully both of these girls photograph. They both did such a great job. Thanks ladies! Here are a few of my favorites… and it was hard to choose because I really love a ton of them!

Sweet Baby Bronwyn

On Monday I had a session with this sweet little girl, Bronwyn. She was a little bit older than I normally like for newborns, so not quite as curly and sleepy, but soooo cute! Here are a few from our session together.

Today I had another assignment for my Marta Locklear workshop. I had to shoot something from 10 different angles to try to get as many different perspectives on the same item without moving it. It was fun to just mess around and go all out on my processing and textures! Here’s a few of my fave’s.

My boys

It was so nice out today I got everyone dressed and dragged them out into the snow for yet another workshop project. You’ll be seeing a lot of these for the next week or so while I’m doing this workshop. Gabe did a amazing job of being my model today! I got a few that are my new favorites of my favorite boys.

Nearly 6 years ago I met this guy at the dog park in Vancouver. He was very cool, not at all interested in me… I thought he was cute, and I was single, so I suddenly became very interested in my dog getting enough exercise. After a few weeks of me stalking him he caved to my obvious charms and it’s been us against the world ever since. Six years later and I still think he’s the perfect man for me. I needed a model for the workshop I’m doing and guess who did it without even complaining? Yep, my handsome hubby. Love you babe.

workshop fun!

I just started an online workshop with an amazing photographer, Marta Locklear. I love her style and as a “I appreciate all you do” gift John bought me a spot in her workshop. Yes, he is a wonderful husband! Our first assignment was to do a self portrait. Well, anyone who knows me knows that I HATE being in front of the camera. I always make this dumb face, and even though I know I make it I still do it! So, having to do a self portrait was hard to say the least. In the end I think I got a few fun ones though. I had to do 3 self portraits in different settings. I feel like each one of these show a different side of me and my style.

The first one is just me, clean and simple. The second one shows my love of color and texture, which is always an important part of my photography. The last one shows me as a photographer and artist.

Twin beauties and a big sister

Last week I had the chance to photograph twins for the second time, and I have to admit I was pretty nervous! Twins are hard at the best of times, but these little sweeties were in between the newborn, sleepy phase and the giggly, happy phase that I usually like to photograph babies. It ended up being a great session and I just love how big sis is snuggling one of her baby sisters. Such a sweet moment
