location photography in Calgary of kids and family

Just going through some of my kids photos and this one stuck out as fall is quickly approaching….

I don’t even want to say it, but Christmas is around the corner and we should all be thinking about our family pictures ;)

Have a great long weekend everyone!

Mom and dad are going to have to watch out in a few years….these kids are gorgeous!  A super great crew to work with in the studio, we had a blast goofing off and dressing up!  I loved photographing these kids and hope to see them again soon :)

family photography in homeI had the absolute pleasure working with this fine lady and her two beautiful daughters!  Denise is the owner/artist of Creative Artwork by Denise a wall mural business that specializes in fine art for your home.  Her one of a kind murals are pleasing to the eye and will be cherished for years to come.  Denise is a fun loving, charismatic individual that will help you recreate your vision on your walls.  Her creativity shines in her art, showing the care and attention to detail that makes her business a success!  Have Denise paint a soothing creation for your nursery, an imaginative piece for your toddler, the latest and greatest for that tween….or your own personal oasis in YOUR bedroom.

After my first conversation on the phone with Denise I KNEW that we would hit it off completely!!  We both have similar quirks ;) and humour!  I instantly fell in love with her girls…they were sooooo sweet and reminded me of my own.

Denise had me come to her home and take pictures in her studio…of her and the girls being creative!  Next we ended up in the bedrooms (Check out the paintings on the walls!) and then for some down time watching a show and eating popcorn.

I thank this family for welcoming me into their home for a this fun filled photography session!  I had a wonderful time and have totally rocked out to Michael Buble while editing ;) ;)

This family is moving and wanted their son to remember his Alberta roots.  What a perfect country location to capture this adorable little guy.  I remember his first few weeks from his newborn session….and now how he has grown into an adorable blue eyed boy.  We were so blessed to have the sun come and melt “most” of the snow from the snowstorm last week.  The wagon was brought along to help keep him off the cold wet ground, but it quickly became his focus and fun!  Mom & Dad….enjoy these images!

This little guy was too cute in the studio for his birthday photographs!  Even though he would have rathered stood on his head, or hide behind cushions…we still managed to get some pretty cute portraits of this three year old!  Is he not the cutest?!:)

photography of boy in studioSome days you just don’t want to take a picture standing, sitting or lying down.  Some days you just gotta stand on your head and smile.  Got a chuckle editing this from the session, will post more soon.

I’d also like to give my new assistant Julie a big, big welcome!!!!  I already love working with her, it’s good times. :)

This morning I took my son out for a walk that turned out to be an adventure…..baby photography in CalgaryIt was supposed to happen earlier in the morning, but it never….so we had to work with the sun high in the sky.

black and white photography in CalgaryAs we walked Mason would stop along the way to crush any ice with his Diego scooter.  At this time of year there is A LOT of ice….let’s just say it took a while to get anywhere. :)

Of course, Mason was sooooo excited to ride his scooter again.  Along the way he stopped to show me all the “cool” things his scooter has….like a wheel, a bag to hold rocks….

photography of families in CalgaryAfter I got the grand tour, we just stood back to admire the scooter in the beautiful sunshine :)

Finally we moved on, this time it was down a slope HUGE hill ;)   Last year he wasn’t too sure of the hills but after this morning…I think he’ll have no problem with them ;)

baby photography CalgaryI knew that sooner than later we’d have to try a new move.  Phew, all this work…when the fun ends the best way to get home is simply to walk.

Calgary children's photographyWhile walking, Mason noticed he had lost his shawdow.  Where did it go?  Why is it not following him anymore?  Did the black take it back?

We walked some more till we came out from the “blackness” of the large house blocking the sun…and his dear shadow was back.  **Grin**

Wow!  Ice melting!family photography CalgaryWe had to help the water move….direct it with our fingers!

Oh my…all of my kids are sick and I am starting to feel as bad as they do :( As soon as one of my babies start to feel better the other child comes down with something!  UGGGG, I swear every year I have a permanent seat at my doctor’s office.

The other day on our adventure I posted the girls together. Here are a few of each girl by themselves.  I really liked this location for the diversity and tons of colour….even at this time of year!  For those that are starting to think of spring sessions….give me a call as I only take a certain number of studio and location sessions per month.

Can you imagine your own child’s portrait in a beautiful canvas hanging in your home?  Simply Connected has many options for displaying your precious images from prints, albums, gallery wrapped canvas, and storyboards.

Enjoy :)
