My beautiful friend Deanna is getting hitched in August and yesterday was her bridal shower. Since I'm a bridesmaid and wanted to be in some of the pictures, I asked my daughter Alex to come along and capture some photos from the day as well! It was an awesome day and I can't wait to stand at Deanna's side when she says her vows in just a few months.

This little lady and her family were first timers in the studio with me today and I'm SO glad to have met them! Sweet Sierra was recently baptized and along with some of the cute props I have, we also got some of her in her GORGEOUS, custom made gown. While Sierra wasn't feeling so great, we still managed to get some beautiful shots of her:

It simply amazes me what a difference a year can make!

Sweet Addy came in for her 1st birthday pics today and I could have just eaten her up...what a sweetheart!

I had the pleasure of photographing this gorgeous little lady today. She is the beautiful sibling of Avery, whom I photographed at a few months old last year! Adelaide is a BIG girl at just over 10 lbs. and while she had a diva moment or 2, she was one of the easiest newborns I've worked with so far :)

This sweet girl has grown so much since I last saw her! She's another one of my Bellies to Babies package clients whom I have the pleasure of watching grow this year. Here's some shots from today's 6 month shoot:

I can't believe a year has passed since the first official set of twins I ever had in my studio! Perhaps you'll remember Cole & Julia?

Their first birthday is next week and today marked their final shoot with me as part of the bellies to babies package...a bittersweet moment for sure since I have watched them grow these past 12 months....from sweet newborns to the big boy and girl I got to hang out with today! It's so awesome seeing their little personalities emerge and today's shoot on the island couldn't have been more fun!

Greg & Sarah ~ She Said Yes! ~ Niagara on the Lake Engagement Photography

With this awful weather we've been having, I was a bit nervous about this year's first official outdoor engagement shoot. It's the middle of May and we have yet to truly have a run of spring-like weather!

I met up with Greg & Sarah in beautiful Niagara on the Lake today and watched as the dark clouds came in. Sure enough, just as I pulled into town, the rain slowly started. I tried to make some quick arrangements to shoot indoors if necessary, but none of those were panning out :(

We had just taken a few quick pictures near a gorgeous blossoming tree when it started to POUR. Greg, Sarah & I bee-lined it to the van and knew we had some decisions to make. We decided to drive around a bit and see if the weather would get any better. We weren't really holding our breaths though...

Not ten minutes later, blue sky appeared and suddenly, it looked and felt like a GORGEOUS spring day! I'm so thankful we waited it out and it's SO NICE to see such gorgeous colours in my photos again :)

Thanks Greg & Sarah for such a great session, can't wait for your big day in just a few months!
