Vancouver Baby Photography - Any age is a good age

I often get requests from parents who either had newborn photos done by someone else and didn't like them, or simply didn't think to book a photographer until after the "ideal" age for newborn photos.  Well, any age is a good age to photograph your baby! Yes, it's true, 5-10 days old is best when working with a newborn, particularly if you want lots of peacefully sleeping baby images, but even 3 months later, with enough patience we can get your little darling asleep and photographed.  Plus, we get the most adorable expressions! Is he not just the cutest thing ever?!

Springtime in Vancouver - Child Photography

It's always so amazing when mother nature wakes up from a deep sleep and gives us beautiful backdrops to play with!

Vancouver Baby Photography - Bright eyes

This little doll changed so much since her newborn session, but her perfect big eyes remained absolutely gorgeous!  She was not in the mood for photos, but despite that, we got some sweet photos of her.

I absolutely adored this gorgeous little boy.  He had the softest hair, and long lashes.  And when he looked at me with those big eyes, he stole my heart. 

North Vancouver Newborn Photographer - More joy for this lovely family

What I love about my job is being able to develop relationships with some of the families who put me in charge of capturing their memories. I cherish every opportunity I get to create something special just for them. I photographed big sis for during her first year, and now I'm excited to document her little brother's milestones. Welcome little one! Can't wait to watch you grow :-)

Vancouver Baby Photography - So Big!

As always, the year went by too quickly! I loved watching this little boy grow and change over the past year. 

Vancouver Baby Photographer - Teddy Bears

I'm hesitant to post this session, because results like these almost never happen with a baby this age.  This scrumptious little boy was 7 weeks old already when he came to see me, and sleepy shots are virtually unheard of at this stage.  I guess the stars aligned that day, because not only did we get a full gallery of adorable awake shots, but at the end he dosed off and let me carefully pose him for a few more shots :-)

North Vancouver Baby Photographer - Pretty

This pretty little princess was a total delight to photograph.  It was great to catch up with mom and dad and see how much she's changed since I saw her last time as a newborn. 

Vancouver Child Photography - Brothers

All I can say is, I LOVED working with these boys.  So much energy, so much laughter, so much fun!

Vancouver Baby Photographer - Summertime fun!

What? Summertime?...

That's right, folks, I'm just a tad behind :-)  But with all the rain we're having lately, I thought you might appreciate a little bit of sunshine on my blog.

I've met this dolly when she was just a few days old for the first time, and look at her now! All grown up.

Langley Newborn Photographer - Giggles

I recently came across a cute quote that said "the best compliment you can give a photographer is to book a session".  I somewhat disagree.  I think the BEST compliment is when you book that photographer again!

I've been blessed over and over this year with so many of my previous clients bringing their newest family members to be photographed by me.  Not only does it make me feel incredibly honoured and happy, but also gives me a nice confidence boost!

I met this lovely family last summer when they welcomed baby girl #2 into their lives, and I was thrilled when I was asked to photograph baby girl #3 who arrived this summer.  It was so wonderful to see everyone again and to meet their brand new play mate.

Vancouver Family Photographer - Christmas Mini Sessions

So excited to announce Family Mini Sessions this year! Lots of people added their names to receive the early bird notice, and I'm sad to say there are only 3 spots left (1 on Saturday and 2 on Sunday). Be sure to act quickly if you want to get in on the fun :-)

Vancouver Newborn Photographer - Baby Brother

I know it's weird (and kind of creepy!) to say a baby looks delicious, but honestly, when I saw this little boy, that was the first thing to pop in my head.  He was just so snuggly and relaxed and, well... delicious!

North Vancouver Baby Photographer - So Big!

I was completely smitten when I met this sweet little boy just a bit over a year ago. He was so tiny back then! Now, he's grown into such a handsome young man. It was truly a pleasure seeing him and his family again, and I am super excited to see him again this fall!

Vancouver Newborn Photographer - Friends

I am committed to continually expanding my skill set and improving my work, and what better way to do it, than meet up with fellow newborn photographers whose work I admire to share ideas, tips and tricks. When Alli from Glow Portraits suggested a get together I pounced at the idea. I've been a huge fan of her work for some time now! And I've been in awe of the incredibly talented Caralee of Caralee Case Photography and her vibrant imagery, so I was thrilled when she agreed to join us, to round out our little group.

We were joined by two gorgeous little girls who have started out their modeling career beautifully :-) Just look at them!

This little dolly was only 7 days old and such a great sleeper. I photographed her big sister when I was just starting out. It's hard to believe it's been nearly 4 years already!

Turns out getting my engineering degree was good for something, lol. This sweetheart's mommy and I went to UBC together! The timing couldn't have been better. I was thrilled to photograph this cutie.

We had an amazing time working with these little princesses, sharing ideas and techniques, and chatting about everything related to photography. As is typically the case, time flew by way too fast and before we knew it, it was time to say goodbye. Thank you ladies! I hope it won't be too long before we meet again :-)
