Fun in the snow – February Snow Storm || Mount Forest Photography

Well I wondered if the weather man was actually going to be right – nothing against them of course, however it was pretty calm… then yes early morning the storm hit! I missed the thunder, but the wind – WOW! 


I held the kids off from going outside until 4pm… at exactly 350pm little man Cars began getting his stuff on, seriously how did he know what time it was lol. I wont complain they were great today, I was able to get some work done and they enjoyed having a lazy day :) All in all good day! 


So when we went outside I of course had to bring my camera out for a bit… then joined in with the kids climbing up the snow hills and shoveled the walk. But man oh man was it COLD! After being out for half and hour I was sooo ready to come in – good thing is they were too ;)

Winter Family Fun! || Mount Forest Children Photographer

I cannot wait for the nicer weather, during the late spring, summer, fall we pretty much live outside and one of my fav reasons is its fun! Next to that of course is my photography – I love love love shooting wide open. So today when the kids were just itching to get outside, I completely embraced playing around with my 50L outside in the winter and capturing the amazing bokeh that you truly CAN capture even in the dead of winter. 


~Side note~ I am now including CUSTOM Birth Announcements with all my Newborn Photography! I will be posting some examples very soon (the parents from my January 2011 sessions just saw their annoucements!). 

My son truly is awesome… I asked him late this morning if he wanted to go outside right then or wait until daddy got home and go out later in the afternoon. His response to me was that we had to wait for daddy because if it was just mommy who would take pictures!? 


As funny as that statement is… yes I did completely LOL when he said that – but it also warmed my heart… my son already has an appreciation for the photos I capture of them – we do look back on photos together all the time and he continuously says “OH remember that mommy” – THATS what its all about… Even as an adult now with my own family I still LOVE looking back on our family photos of when I was a child. Its all about the memories and while capturing those memories – LIVING them! 


(I also got out of shoveling hehe!). 


Yes his tongue helps … lol



If you only knew how long it took me to get some shots of this miss looking at me… it took a LOT of work lol. Im sure if any of our neighbours were watching they were laughing at me! Right after I took this the shovel went up in front of her face and I was ‘told’ ‘ok mommy NO more pictures’ lol she was slightly over tired hehe. But oh so cute in her hat (which she just got from her cousins – yea hand-me-downs!). 



Ah and my love… the BIGGEST kid of them all… he had to make the sledding track better for the kids hehe. Love you! 

Trees and sunshine in the back yard – oh loving the sunshine!


Had fun with the fam… much needed! <3

Sweet Baby BOY! || Mount Forest Baby Photographer

A change… its a BOY! I had fun meeting this sweet little man yesterday morning. He is the first born for M & S and they are just smitten with him! Although he got sleepy he was quite curious as to who this was and why he suddenly was a model ;) I hope you enjoy your sneak… Ive emailed you a link to view many more! Im only half way through editing :) Thank you again for choosing me to capture him as a newborn and the new addition to your family!


He’ll always be his mama’s baby boy!
He’s already daddy’s little boy!


Congratulations again S & M … Little baby E certainly is a blessing!

A Great Start!

The year is off to a great start! Ive had my first session of the year… beautiful baby bump and the 2 big sisters! I am awaiting to hear about one newborn and was contacted for a baby due anytime now! I have changed things a little for this new year 2011. I myself know the value of digital files, heck its what got me into digital photography – for my FAMILY in the first place! I bought our DSLR so that I wouldn’t have to pay for photos a few times a year (yes I would seriously do that). So why does this relate to my pricing for this year. I am a lifestyle photographer, I am with you for at least an hour capturing your true self! I aim for what I aim to achieve in my own family photography, capturing the moment and looking back at the images and remembering THE exact moment! Which is why I do provide the digital files. This year I have changed my packages. Although I am still providing the printing and online use of my photos I take for you, I am also providing you a breath taking canvas photo option! When you receive your digital files you will also receive one of 4 canvas packages to enjoy on the walls of your home. I do provide the digital files, however they must be kept intact and not altered in anyway if used online or in print. 


I had a wonderful time with this family the other morning. Here are some more images I took of them! I am very excited for the arrival of this new little babe to the family! 
I look forward to creating a treasure for your family too! 

Beautiful!


So for a Happy New Years 2011 Special…
