We took a little getaway to Mazatlan last week. It was wonderful to get a bit of sun! Here are a few of our trip.

I spent the day with my big brother and his family yesterday and took a few photos in the process. This little guy makes me smile every time, I just love him so much. He has one of those contagious smiles that gets me every time. He’s my little love-bug and you see his best friend in these photos, Lamb-chop. Love you guys!

What do you do if you’re home on holiday Monday and are a little bored? Seems like setting up studio and taking photos of the kids is a good idea;) I haven’t managed to get many good shots of Lacey so that was the goal today. She’s so much harder than Gabe. He flashes me those puppy dog eyes and the camera just loves it. Here’s a few…

Ok, so he’s not a baby anymore. He’s going through a little bit of a talking back and arguing with me phase that really irritates me, but I look at a photo like this and my heart just melts. I guess he’ll always be my little baby, even if he is growing up.

Last week I had a family session with Carol, Matt and a very busy Emmet. I forgot how great 2 years old is – so full of energy and life! Here’s a sneak peek of their session.

On Monday night I had a session with 7 adorable kids from 3 different families. I’m never sure how a session with that many kids together is going to go, because when they’re little like that it’s always unpredictable. We took our time and they did great. Here are a few from the session.

Yesterday I had the pleasure of photographing the Hurleys. I’ve known Kelly since I was in grade 7, which is a VERY long time:) As I was editing these I couldn’t get over what a gorgeous family they are, both inside and out. Here’s a few from the session. There are so many good ones I had a hard time choosing what should go up here. Thank you Kelly for letting me do your photos. I hope you like them!

My mom was here for 10 days from Mexico. I haven’t seen her in a year and it was so nice to spend time with her. Spending that time with her made me realize how much I miss out on having her here. We drank copious amounts of coffee and wine, talked until way past our bedtimes, she baked cookies with my kids, and generally brought sunshine and joy to us for the week she was here. We miss you mom! Here are a few of my fave’s from last week.

Here are a few more from my maternity session with Jen this week. What a beautiful girl and baby belly. I can’t wait to see the little munchkin!

Thanks for catching up and letting me take photos of your beautiful family, Jen and Ryan. It was sooo good to see you. Here’s a little sneak peek into your session.
