Fall Photo Shoot with S

These are a few shots from my photo shoot with "S" last October

It was scheduled for a certain time but due to running late Mommy rushed home with S and off we went to find a suitable/leafy Fall spot to take some Autumn shots.

Note the lighting is kind of dark, that's because it was almost dark by the time we were completed.

S & The Scarecrow

Most of the other shots have Mommy's hand gently taking the leaves OUT of her mouth
I LOVE when babies look serious, just because most of the time they're not. They are either laughing, crying or sleeping. It's the rare expression that I always seem to pick as a fav. And last but not least, chillin' on the hay :)
Despite the poor circumstances for this shoot, I was still pleased with the end results. Thanks M & S (oh and Daddy in the truck shining the headlights for extra lighting) it's been one of my more adventurous shoots :)

N Maternity Shoot

My shoot from Saturday....a sneak peak of N :)

Who is just soooo sweet, shy and simply "darn adorable"

First the over the shoulder pose

This one I call Sun up Above
Wouldn't be right without a fence pose
Mommy & Daddy...no let me correct myself, a very proud mommy & daddy
A favourite technique of mine, the black & white with the focal point in colour
And last but not least the family dog...Riley...who's saying..."Now if both of us are going to live here....these are the rules!!"
And that's the end of our show.
N, your package will be ready VERY soon. Thanks for the opportunity, you're a joy to work with :)

Sam & Jake Informal Photo Shoot

I call this the informal photo shoot because they're my cousins....and they're young, innocent, fun, not to mention photogenic :)

So back to last October to take advantage of all the autumn leaves

Being typical silly brother & sister

And Jake striking a pose...told you they were photogenic

P Photo Shoot

These photo's are from my session with P last September and probably the most challenging photo shoot that I've done thus far. She's 3, very busy, and just wasn't in the mood to have her picture taken. Every now and then she would look at me and go "cheese" catch me completely off guard and I'd totally miss the shot. We did end up getting a few good ones, thankfully. These aren't them but these are still among the favourites

These were on location at Belfountain Conversation area, LOVE the fence there
Don't you love how she's mid-step with the cutest purple outfit ever?!?
I'm hoping to have the back log finished up by next week.

I'll have new sessions to post the following week.

C Family Photo Shoot

I apologize for the delay in my posts as of late. I was on vacation :) Now I'm back, well rested and ready to take more photos

And now back to previous sessions.

This January I did a family photo shoot for the C family. I wasn't overly happy with how their actual family photos turned out but the client was satisfied so I'm satisfied. And I've been since booked to do their Christmas family photos.

Here's some of the proofs of their little guy "R"

Even though he's only a few months old, I love how he looks "deep in thought"

Let's see that up close

I couldn't have planned this one any better, the Love milk shirt with the smirk on the face and the tongue out licking his lips. Too perfect!

And probably my favourite shot from this session, his feet...'nough said :)

V Maternity Shoot

I'm trying to share my past sessions before starting to post my next & most recent.

This is V's maternity session from last October

I especially love how the 'fence' poses turned out in her backyard.

Then of course, next to the brick wall of her house. Background ideas are limit-less if you just use your imagination
I've done this pose for both of my maternity shoots, I love the silhouette look

Next post will be of the session of her and her bundle of joy!
