New Website Coming Soon!!

Hello lovelies!!

I know that I have been neglecting my blog lately and I apologize!!

The reason is that I'm busy putting the final touches on my new website which will have a built in blog.

A part of this process included getting some headshots done by the very talented Melissa Toye. From what I've seen so far she did an amazing job making me look great!! I should also credit the equally talented Erica Wright who did my make up (and who will forever be on speed dial for all my future make up needs).

Look! That's me practicing my model look. Now I know how you guys all feel in front of the camera :)

Thanks for your patience and don't hesitate to contact me for any information, questions or just to chat.

Check out my Facebook page for sneak peaks of my recent sessions.

Copeland Family - Maternity

Erin is a very good friend of mine and I was so lucky to photograph her perfect baby bump.

Soon-to-be big brother Logan was a great sport being in front of the camera (although it may have been because marshmallow treats were involved).

I had such a great time hanging out with this family and capturing this special moment in time.

I can't wait to meet baby Copeland :)

The Tiny Footprints Projects

I am very excited to share with you that I have been accepted as a photographer for the Tiny Footprints Project!!

The project was started in 2003 when its creator, Heather, photographed a premature baby in the NICU and realized how many families go without newborn photos because their babies spend days, weeks, sometimes months in the hospital until they are strong enough to go home. So Heather created the Tiny Footprints Project which offers complimentary professional photography sessions for families with babies in the NICU.

What an amazing group!!!

Some of you may know that my son was born premature. Although he was almost full-term, he still faced challenges and had to stay in the NICU. It was a very scary time filled with successes and set backs. We were so happy once the nurses were able to remove the feeding tubes and IV needles. And elated when we could finally bring our little baby home.

 

I'm am so happy to be able to give back to the community and take part in this project providing free photography for parents staying at local hospitals in the Ottawa area.

Please spread the word. Every family deserves to have beautiful photos taken of their new love(s).

February Photo Challenge

The photo challenge theme for February is "Lifestyle". Lifestyle photography is how I would describe my style of photography - capturing life's everyday moments.

This photo is one of my favourites - my son watching his dad shave. It's amazing to watch my little baby grow up and start to copy the things that we do. It's just a reminder that they don't stay little forever and before long he will be all grown up and shaving on his own!!!

But until that day, I will enjoy every moment.
