At home with Baby B …

Kayla and Alden’s wedding was one of the few in 2020 that went off without changes to the venue or the date. They were so calm and relax through it all and were a joy to work with. I was so happy when I ran into Kayla at Krissy’s wedding in September – she was pregnant and due soon, so we made plans (Covid allowing) to reconnect for some newborn photos once the baby was born in November. Their at home newborn session was much like their wedding – calm and loving – and using the all the blankets they were gifted in the photos was so special.

It was so great to meet Baby B on his one-week birthday – glad baby and parents are doing well! Parents seated holding a newborn babyParents seated holding a newborn babyMother stands in a window holding a newborn baby and kissing its cheekParents hold a newborn baby near a windowphoto of a newborn baby

 

A day at the beach with Mister M …

I first met Shelby and Sergiu back in 2017 when I had the pleasure of capturing their engagement and wedding. Their wedding is still one of the most fun I’ve been too – with a great first look and great reception (check out the blog post for some great wedding style inspo!). So I was thrilled when they reached out this summer and we went back to Cherry Beach, where we took their engagement photos, to photograph their new son. Covid protocols prevented a newborn session, but it didn’t stop us from capturing a precocious 4 month old getting his first taste of beach sand.  I love when I get to reconnect with wedding clients and meet their new kids. I love capturing the beautiful continuation of their love story …

Mister T turns one …

In late summer, I joined Dee and Derek down at the beach to celebrate baby T’s first birthday with a cake smash. I love being able to follow the story of their family — from their very cold engagement, to their wedding, baby T as a newborn … and now he’s one!

I joined the family early on a Saturday to take advantage of the morning light and an empty beach. We were careful not to mix sand with icing, but otherwise let the cuddles and cake eating unfold in a beautiful, relax, way. This documentary approach let’s us capture the loving moments in between — while still having fun with cake and birthday hats. And I do love a beach in August. So without further delay … take a look at this sweet little man’s face!

 

Introducing Baby T …

Almost a year to the day after their wedding, Dee and Derek invited me into their home to meet baby T. With their sweet dog keeping watch, it was great to capture Deanne and Derek settling in to parenthood with ease. I am honoured to have captured their engagement, wedding, and now a newborn baby boy…
