Vanessa & Frank- Maternity session

I photographed Vanessa and Frank's wedding during my very first season of shooting weddings. Since then we have become great friends and I now excited to watch their family grow. This little munchkin will be so very loved by so many- including me. I can't wait till April!

Lots of Love,

Janet- Expecting

Janet is expecting a baby in the next month and she decided to document this exciting time in their lives. Although the weather was gorgeous all day, the moment we began shooting the clouds rolled in. We tried driving to the other side of the city in an attempt to 'outrun' the storm and were able to only get a couple more shots in- all in all, it was a crazy fast session, but fun :)


Congrats on your exciting new beginning!

Natalie & Jeremy

Natalie and Jeremy are a very special couple. You see, Jeremy is deploying to Afghanistan in a few short weeks with our Canadian Armed Forces. You have to be a very amazing type of person to do that sort of thing...and a special kind of girl to be able to watch him go. As I took pictures of them together I witnessed their bond and felt little bit of their pain in saying goodbye. Lots of tight squeezes, kisses and long glances filled my camera.

Thank you Jeremy for your commitment to freedom and Thank-you Natalie for your strength in letting him go.

Supporting our Troops,

Baby Haley

Haley was born to proud parents and some of my past clients, Karen & Aaron. I was so thrilled when they called to tell me they were expecting and wanted to me to photograph their little bundle of joy. Haley had to make a big entrance into this world....she weighed nearly 11 pounds at birth, a big surprise to her Doctor and her Mother! I photographed her at 6 days old and she stole my heart right away....

Lots of love,

Baby Amara

Amara is a cute little three month old that I absolutely adored meeting! I photographed her cousin , Leela, a few short months ago and was delighted to come back and meet her. She was a little ray of sunshine and brought me lots of smiles.

Here are a quick couple of teaser images....

Cheers

Nielson Family

This past weekend I had the opportunity to photography my brothers' growing family of four. If any other photographers out there have tried to shoot 4 kids all under the age 8....it is quite the task to have them all happy/smiling/looking in the general vicinity of the camera. So instead of setting ourselves up for a bit of stress, we had fun with it and just let the kids be themselves. As my husband so cleverly pointed out, not everyone is looking at the camera in the family picture, but it feels just so "them". If I could do anything as a photographer it would be to capture people as they really are, and I think this just about does it :)




The whole Nielson Clan

Jared. He told my husband that Tim was soooo strong he was stronger then an Incredible. Tim hasn't seen The Incredibles so some of the compliment was wasted, but his ego was stoked all the same.

Isabelle. My little performer! She has the starring role of Peter Pan in her Musical Theatre school! I am so proud of her!!

Cora. We are so blessed to have her healthy and to receive positive results from her CT scan. She is going to be our little genius :)

Heidi. She's a pretty awesome girl who informed her family she is a "tomboy"...this while wearing all pink and preparing for dance class. Too cute.


Kai & Heather. Still in love after 4 kids!!!

Lots of Hugs,

Kelsy
