Stephanie + Robert ~ Maternity

This couple was so sweet to work with! Totally easy going, open to suggestions, and of course, totally photogenic! We were worried about the weather, thinking we were going to be rained out, but thankfully we stayed dry. We stuck close to their home, doing some photos in a park nearby their place, and also in their nursery and master bedroom. I hope you love your photos guys, and I can't wait to meet your little girl in a few weeks! :)

The J Family

This family was so much fun to work with. It was a bit of a chilly day, but we made the best of things, and we enjoyed traipsing around the park together. The four of them made for a very photogenic bunch, so lets hope it's not another 10 years before a family photo is taken, right Laura? ;) Enjoy your photos!

The S Family

On a dreary day it feels good to look back at the warm fall colours from this photo shoot! This session was with my manager's family, and it was a treat to do a shoot with this family as I'm used to trying to wrangle young children during photos, however their puppy did his best to steal the show! Enjoy the photos!

Waiting for Sawyer

So I'll begin by saying this is a very photo heavy post. Usually I only post a half dozen or so pictures from each session, because I just choose my favourites and allow the family I'm photographing to discover the rest on their own. For Melanie and Will's shoot however, I had too many photos to choose from! Considering it briefly seemed like this shoot wouldn't even happen, I'm thrilled that there are so many photographs to show!

This shoot was originally dreamed to be an outdoor winter wonderland-type shoot, but because it was January, the weather in Manitoba had different ideas. The weekend of the first session we booked, we experienced a blizzard and deep freeze temperatures. The second weekend was a bit more mild (but still cold!), but still threatening a snow storm. We decided to chance it, so I drove out to their home to do some indoor photos. Of course, then I nearly ended up in their ditch after overshooting their driveway! Clumsy photographer. :) Will graciously dug/pushed me out, and then still happily posed for photos!

Anyways, it happened, and these photos are the result! Melanie and Will, enjoy your photos! I had a great time with you guys, and I have no doubt that when Sawyer arrives he will be surrounded by love!

Melanie and Will - Sneak Peek

At the end of January I was lucky enough to meet Melanie and Will thanks to a mutual acquaintance. They are awaiting the birth of their first (human) baby in early March and wanted to capture some maternity pictures. I, of course, was more than happy to oblige! Here's a sneak peek of that afternoon!
