One of my goals for 2016 is to learn more about shooting video. I get wrapped up taking so many photos, but photos can't capture my children's laughter, or tiny voices, or dance moves. I want to save a piece of those things too. This is my first attempt at a little video. It's rough around the edges, and I have a lot to learn, but when I look back on it I won't care about that. I'll just love the memories it captured. I hope my kids will love it too.
Brothers - Edmonton Family and Children Photographer
It's no secret that I take a lot of photos of my kids. I feel like they are growing up so fast that it's my way to keep a piece of each step of their lives. With how fast-faced life is today, it's easy to forget the little things and I really don't want to do that. Here are a few from one of Townes' monthly sessions of his first year. Of course big brother had to join in.
Hideaway in the City - Edmonton Family and Children Photographer
I have a "secret" spot. It's one of my favourite places for sessions. The trees are beautiful, the grass is overgrown just enough, there is an AMAZING tree just right for climbing, and there is ample space for the kids to run around and have fun. The bad news? It's in the heart of North Edmonton in a soon-to-be new development area. Breaks my heart to know that bulldozers will probably be in this space next spring/summer. I decided to take my kids to check it out, and here are some from our visit. If you'd like to book a session in this location, now is the time before it's gone!
Rowan Turns One - Edmonton Children Photographer
I love first birthdays. There's just something magical about them. Little eyes so full of wonder for what the world is around them. So many new discoveries and things to experience, and of course - cake! I'm going to mention the beautiful weather again, because how amazing is it to have an outdoor cake smash in October?! :D
I had a hard time narrowing down my selections for this shoot. Rowan and his older brother, Alex are just too cute.
T&L Couples Session - Edmonton Couples Photographer
I haven't shot a couples session in a while, so when Tessa contacted me to book I was quite excited. We had lots of fun and couldn't have asked for a nicer October evening. I think October is starting to take the cake for my favourite month of the year!
