Kids Being Kids || Mine

Our kids being kids… singing and joking around. This is what Christmas is and was all about for us. What I love about this photo the most is that while I was photographing them, my uncle (who got me into the DSLR photography world…) was video taping them with his flip video. I cannot wait to see the video!


Today I had my last shoot of 2010… a sweet little family with a little lady about my little lady’s age. I had fun – even more fun going back through the images editing them and remembering the laughter we shared trying to get smiles or the dog to pose hehe. It was also nice reconnecting with someone from many years ago – wow its almost crazy I can say “many years ago”, both of us grown with our own families! Makes this part of my job even more special, capturing these moments for them 🙂 Sneak will be up later this week!


All of our Christmas photos were taken with my NEW lens! Canon 50L it is just amazing! I have been debating for a while what to upgrade my little nifty fifty to and when this deal came up it was hard to pass by! So I am SET for 2011 for newborns or any indoor family/children/maternity – my 1st for 2011 being … a Maternity shoot 🙂

Small Town Winter… its almost Christmas! || Mount Forest Photographer

Although I am not a huge fan of the cold winters I do have to say I just love love love snow at Christmas! Coming from, and living back in my hometown, small town when we get snow, we get snow!~ 


Here are some images I captured the other day of the beauty of winter… 

This image is of the Saugeen River looking towards Hwy 6. 



These are the trees beside the river by Hwy 89 just before you come into Mount Forest.

Patiently awaiting Santa || Mount Forest Child Photographer

Christmas truly is my favourite time of year!
Simply for all the time spent with family.
This was totally set up, but also quite natural – as you may have guessed with older children I do not prefer a “studio” backdrop… Love love love all the memories this one image holds!

Fun in the snow || Mount Forest Family Photographer

I had the pleasure of spending the entire day with my babes yesterday and we were out enjoying the snow! First for the Holstein Parade and then playing in the snow by our house… fun times! 


Here are just a few from the parade… gorgeous horses!

And my babes just LOVE the snow!

I love this time of year when we get to see all the family and we have even more time to spend with our kids 🙂 


Enjoy today with your families… we are expecting a snow storm today so we are looking forward to an entire day home together! 

Christmas Season & 2011 || Mount Forest Family Photographer

With Christmas coming up very fast, I would like to thank all of my 2010 clients and wish you all a very Merry Christmas and hope you enjoy this special season with your family. My last session of the year is just after Christmas – which is booked! I am now booking for 2011… with already a handful to pin down a date in the new year – Im looking forward to meeting all of you who I have connected with 🙂 


I have some great plans for 2011 and am looking forward to all the various babies, children, couples and families I have the pleasure of photographing! 


If you are interested in Photography – here are some ideas of themes and locations! 
In the snow, in your home, around the Christmas tree, your bedroom or your kids bedrooms, backyard fun, a walk in the park, in the trees, by the water, on the bridge, sand, boats, rocks, grass, sunset, your baby’s tiny features, your baby outside (warm day of course), feet, hands, your home, birth photography, newborns newness, pets, couples, family, children playing… 


Anything that is YOU is what I capture in my photography! I am a natural light photographer so as the days begin to get longer (spring/summer/early fall) I will be able to accommodate evening sessions! Photography is an investment and will be something you will treasure as the years pass. 


A NEW Photography Service for 2011… Birth Photography! This is currently only going to be available for Moms delivering in the Mount Forest or Palmerston Hospitals… and will depend on availability! If you are interested please connect with your due date. I will do my best to accommodate to capture this special moment in your life! All photos will be discrete and professionally tasteful – as a mother I respect and understand with the mother delivering! The purpose of Birth Photography is to capture the FIRST moments of a child’s life and the beginning of a parent’s life with that child. 


As I am a mother and have 2 children I am only available for a limited number of sessions each month 🙂 Please email lifestylephotographybypam@hotmail.com to connect! 


Enjoy this Christmas Season with your family! This week hubby and I had the pleasure of attending our son’s Christmas party at his school… here is one of hubby and little man doing a craft together ❤
