Two Brothers In Studio

Here’s a selection from a recent studio session. A kiss and a look from the eldest brother was just enough to bring out adorable expressions from the little guy.  A big thank you to the eldest brother for helping me get the attention of his sibling. He worked very hard as my assistant when he wasn’t in the portraits!

Fall Family Session

Loved this family shoot! This two year old played quite the part. She gave me smiles, a few laughs and cheeky looks too. I also got a few indignant stares when I picked up the camera. She very cleverly figured out I was fun to be with if I wasn’t taking photos! It was wonderful meeting Mom and Dad too.

Two Year Old, Mini Shoot

It was a pleasure to photograph this two year old girl. As the newest member of the family I am sure she is bringing lots of joy to her parents and siblings. Sometimes toddlers take the job of being photographed very seriously. Apparently this girl was all smiles in the car home and we were wondering how many smiles happened for the camera. Well here’s a half smile and it happens to be one of my favorites!

The Back Yard Portraits

About this time last year I posted portraits from a personal shoot in my backyard. Here are this years images from the same location. We have a vernal pond which grows some tall grasses through the summer that turn brown by Fall. It’s a very convenient and pretty setting!

We meet again…

I photographed this little guy in studio when he was a baby. What a treat it was to meet him again for more photos. He’s certainly enjoying his status as an active inquiring two year old and what fun he was. I was very happy to chase him around with my camera.

Hello Again!

When I met up with these two children last week I told them it was like meeting two old friends again. This is my fourth year taking their portraits and I really do love spending time with them. Their session is always one of the Fall season’s highlights.

It’s A Dogs Life

I have had quite a few child and family sessions recently where the dog has come along too. Dogs can be like two year olds, they won’t stay in one place for long, like to run around and are more interested in having a snack than having a photo taken. Does that sound familiar?

However I have been most impressed with many of the family dogs I have met recently including this young pup. I think the kids here were acting as super role models though. They were patient, caring and showed this puppy they were also the perfect friends. We only planned to have the dog included at the end for a few shots time permitting. I’m glad we managed to fit them in!

Super Siblings

I met these three and four year old siblings earlier this week. They were a real treat to photograph. Sometimes with this age I may simply plan to capture them exploring the area particularly if they are camera shy. Not so with these two. They showed both a fun and gentle side to their character which gave me a chance to capture a real feeling of togetherness. Lovely session!

Backyard Fun

It has been almost a year since I photographed these siblings and they have certainly grown. We had some backyard fun and play for this session. The little girl was very interested in tasting the water that was being sprayed from the hose.
