We just managed to complete this session before the rain came. Good job too as this family had travelled up from Connecticut for the shoot! Despite the gathering rain clouds it really was great light for photographs and I very much enjoyed my time with these kids.
Here’s my birthday girl. She turned four yesterday! A perfect excuse to take some special portraits.
Sometimes it’s worth doing something someone else will think is very special. I think Mom knows what I’m talking about here!
I really enjoyed this photo session. Ok I admit I was terrible at holding a conversation about the latest and greatest trucks but I’m keeping my fingers crossed this young man eventually gets the one he wants!
I was really pleased to be able to photograph these children at one of my favorite spots. Here we are at the end of September and the place is still full of beautiful wild flowers!
A special Godmother and some fun moments makes some memorable portraits…
Recently I have had a lot of clients tell me that it’s been so hard to choose prints from their galleries because they’ve loved all their pictures. Well it is my turn to have a hard time making a selection. There were so many memorable images from this family session and it was hard picking just three for my blog. The girls got very excited about having their portraits taken and I had such a great evening with the whole family.
As the photographer I am often drawn toward portraits that don’t always show smiles, portraits that have unique expressions or convey a mood or character of the child being photographed. This little girl was somewhat hesitant about being photographed during the first part of the session nevertheless I thought this was perfect for capturing a very intimate image of her as shown in the sepia portrait below.
Here she is again with her brother and I love how he’s so interested in what she’s doing! We had smiles all round as the session went on. I photographed these children last year. It was great meeting this family again and I can’t wait to finish the work on this gallery!
If I was giving out an award for the most adorable smile this little girl would win it. Of course big brother is right up there too with his lovely blue eyes. I hope he’s still having a fun time in Kindergarten!
It was lovely meeting this young man last week. It was a fun shoot and we’re going to have some great portraits. His future endeavours include training to be a tenor/vocalist. Wishing him all the best with his college selection!
I learned from Mom and Dad that this baby is one mellow little guy! As you can see here snoozing was one of the activities of choice during this session. It was a pleasure working with the family and capturing some memories of this very special time.
