Brandon & Rachel part deux!

The ceremony went off without a hitch in the beautiful St. James church in Waterdown. 

Here are some of my favourite moments from their ceremony.   I must add it is so tough to pick just a few, but the full slideshow will be available soon!

Brandon & Rachel’s wedding

I always check the weather like almost obsessively through out the week when I know that I have a wedding coming up that weekend.  It’s just good to be prepared and to know what to expect.  Well throughout the week last week it said rain maybe,

tulips, not two lips!

Ok so there is this trend in photography that has been around for a few years now thanks to the master  Jesh de Rox who lead the way for this incredible alternate expression of photo editing.  I have been dabbling in it for a few months now, and really liked what I have been seeing with my portrait work.  However I had yet to try it on still stuff.  I just grabbed a new texture set this week and love the feel that it gives to still photos.  Changes it from a pretty picture… to more artsy.  And I love it!! 

Spring is so here.  I am beyond excited as it is my favourite time of the year.  I love flowers and gardening so it is a given, but also I love it because my kids can finally get outside and play and be noisy get dirty and I can safely enjoy it all happening outside. :)  This brings us to sandboxes. 

sweetest family

and a baby with the skin of a porcelain doll!!  Seriously so creamy and delicious!!  Lisa & Kevin I really enjoyed getting to know you all a little better and enjoyed immensely seeing your little peanut and her parents delighting in each other!! 

Baby H is here!!

Big congrats to mom and dad and new big sister M!!   Little miss H was so peaceful and content and super sleepy at 11 days of age and I couldn’t have been happier.  I tell all my new moms & dads to be to please book your newborn session within the first 2 weeks so we can get these super yummy sleepy new baby photos. 

it’s new bike season!

With the final traces of snow nearly melted away, and warmer days coming, I am hopeful that spring is finally here. I am a bit impatient in the best of times, but knowing that the nice weather is on the brink of arrival.. I get a wee bit

big sister-to-be and a cute lil belly

I had the great opportunity yesterday to share in the celebration of the upcoming arrival of Susan & Matt’s new little bundle.   It was so much fun to meet your extended family and of course little miss A.  She is gorgeous and adorable and I am so glad that we got some great shots of her being her sweet little self. 

early spring e-session

Matt & Sam are young, fun and way too cool!  We weaved our way through the city streets and bike paths and the coolest place yet, a building previously used as a prison/holding area for people on their way to prison.   I love architecture with some meaty history, just makes you wonder about the stories the walls must hold.
