Spiderman is 4 | Ottawa, Ontario

Every year children change so much, not only in their looks but their interests. In yearly “milestone” sessions for preschoolers and children I love to include something that is truly “them” in their session. During our pre-session consultation I discuss with clients what their child’s interests are so we can see how they can be incorporated into the session. When I was discussing this with Spencer’s Mom I discovered that he especially loves Spiderman. She sent me a picture of this Spiderman sweater he has, saying that he loves to wear it. It is such a fun sweater, I knew we had to include some pictures of him in it along side his more “formal” pictures. At his session Spencer was so sweet and silly and I think his personality really shines through for where he is right now in life right now as he approaches his fourth birthday.

Meet the amazing Spiderman (and his beautiful Mama).

and his alter-ego Peter Parker…err… Spencer!

How to be covered in glitter until NEXT new years!

I have a tradition to photograph my girls every New Year’s Eve all dressed up and ready to party. This year I had the “bright” idea to do a glitter session. I am probably going to be finding star glitter in my studio until NEXT New Year’s Eve. They both had a fabulous time trying to blow and throw glitter at me and at each other. The natural expressions of pure joy made the clean up required after totally worth it. We also did some “sparkler” pictures but don’t worry, there was no in studio use of fire! I think this is the most fun I’ve had taking photographs of my girls in a long time! Would your children enjoy making a mess with glitter? Lets talk about how we can add a little sparkle to your children’s milestone pictures.

As a kick off to 2017, I am offering 20% off the session fee for all baby (3 months and up) and children’s milestone sessions booked (contract signed and retainer paid) before January 15th, 2017. (Glitter not required!)

Well-balanced Christmas

Now here’s something a little different than my typical baby bumps, newborns and babies/preschoolers; big-kid gymnast Christmas portraits. As gymnastics equipment doesn’t fit in my studio, I travelled to Belleville to capture these talented young ladies. This session was so fun that it makes me want to do some more gymnast portraits in the near future! I have so many ideas, I may have to borrow Miss J and Miss M for some creative sessions! kmp_0823-final-wm

World Prematurity Day 2016

World wide 1 in 10 babies are born prematurely, that is before 37 weeks gestation. Here in Canada that number is 1 in 12. Today is World Prematurity Day which celebrates these extra tiny miracles! Four and a half years ago my oldest daughter arrived 9 weeks early at 2lbs 15 oz so this day is a special one for us. We will be forever grateful for the amazing staff at the Royal Alex NICU in Edmonton, Alberta who took such great care of our girl – and so many others each and every day. It is amazing however tiny our girl was to look around and see other babies who were more than half her size! Preemies are fighters and we our thankful for our little fighter!

Happy World Prematurity Day to all preemie rock stars!

Fall Colours

We have been so lucky with our beautiful weather this fall! This early morning walk last Wednesday not only gave us the opportunity to take some beautiful fall portraits but we had a wonderful view of nature walking along the river. We saw ducks, a woodpecker so close we could have touched it and a heron as well! Here’s hoping that today’s rain didn’t take down TOO many leaves and there will still be lots of beautiful fall foliage to enjoy for at least an other couple weeks!

Ice Cream 3rd Birthday

This ice cream third birthday milestone session was so fun! We started out with some toy ice cream at the ice cream stand and then moved on to the real thing! Little Sis was so worried that her sister didn’t have an ice cream that she invited her in for a taste!

We had so much fun doing this that I’m thinking of offering a limited edition Ice Cream Parlour session at the end of August/beginning of September. Contact me if you’re interest in some adorably messy pictures of your little ones!
