I did a maternity shoot for Jaspreet and René with daughter Noémie near the end of October. This week I met the newest member of the family, Shanti, at just over 1 week old.

Here's Shanti....

I love shooting newborns with their little tiny body parts....

Milo

In July I did a maternity shoot with Tamara and Jacky.   This shoot was with little Milo, now over 2 months old.

Milo was such a sweetie and did really well in the shoot.  He is so strong and curious.

Here's the family.....

With Tamara...

With Jacky....

And one of my favs from the session - the family foot shot!

Good to see you again and to meet the little guy!

Sasha & Jack

A couple of weeks ago I did a session with Sasha & Jack.  This was a surprise that their Mum Larissa had organised for her husband's birthday.  Now that I no longer have to keep the secret, here are Sasha & Jack.....

Jasmine & Adam - November 8, 08

Jasmine & Adam were married at Whonnock Lake.  It is really beautiful out there and we (I include myself here) were very excited by the venue and the photo ops it has.  However, if you've been victim to the weather these past couple of weeks, you'd know that it's been raining almost constantly.The forecast for Saturday was for 25 mm of rain in the afternoon so we had scouted out alternate locations for photos, but with a 2 pm ceremony, failing light was also a concern.

I started the day with the girls getting ready at their hotel....

Jasmine had two pair of shoes for her day....

Susannah started with Adam and the grooms-people at another hotel.  Here's the man of the day...

Jasmine & Adam must be two of the luckiest people around, because Saturday afternoon got brighter and brighter and by 2 pm we knew we would be able to shoot  outside.  Whonnock Lake did not disappoint, and Jasmine, Adam and the bridal party were total troopers as it was pretty cold out.

I do love adventurous brides and I do love rocks :)
Oh, and isn't the sky totally awesome too!

Right as the sun went down we took a couple of final shots in the forest.  Beautiful!

Here's the first dance.....

They had a "One Love" cake and a live reggae band "Mostly Marley" who were awesome!
 
Congratulations Jaz & Adam - it was our pleasure to work with you in capturing your day.  All the best for a long and happy life together!

Jennifer & Mike

Mike bought Jennifer a Photography Gift Certificate for their anniversary and this weekend they came in for session one - maternity.

We chatted our way through the session which is always nice.  It's great getting to know people a bit while we shoot.

This is my favourite shot of them together as to me it shows their relationship as a couple - lots of laughter.

Here's a few of Jennifer....

And with Mike....

Mike says he does this every day....

All the best and I'll see you in a couple of months!
