É is Six Months Old - Edmonton Family Lifestyle Photographer

I've been photographing this lovely couple since their engagement. Last year they welcomed their adorable daughter into the world and I feel incredibly lucky they asked me to be their photographer once again for her six month session.

Six months is one of my favourite ages to photograph. I love how curious babies are at that age. How they are figuring out the world around them and wanting to explore. Learning to sit up, crawl, babble more sounds.

Miss É was certainly curious with what my camera was doing during our session.  She was a trooper and such a happy baby.  Here's a selection from that evening.

Blossoms Amongst the Green - Edmonton Family Lifestyle Photographer

Of course I couldn't resist taking my own kids out during blossom week.  I'm not going to lie, prior to this year's "Blossom Watch 2016" I didn't always jump at the opportunity to photograph these pretty pink flowers. I'm not sure why, because I had a lot of fun with them this year. I also fell in love with the amazing white blossoms in some of the photos below. We even decided to bring our pups along for the adventure.
 

Blossoms in the City - Edmonton Family Lifestyle Photographer

When the blossoms open, they only stay for a few days, so you have to take advantage. We got lucky and had wonderful weather that week too.  Here's a selection from a sessions I did for another lovely family that week.

Spring has Sprung - Blossom Session - Edmonton Family Lifestyle Photographer

I chatted with this family last winter about scheduling a blossom session in the spring.  We were determined to be able to catch the blossoms this year as they had missed them the last couple of years. I called our wait Blossom Watch 2016 - which kind of reminded me of the show Blossom and gave me a craving to watch it. Woah!  BUT, anyway, we managed to catch the blossoms just in time so we were all very excited and had a lot of fun that evening. All the flowers made for a pretty night and the sun decided to peek out near the end. Here are a few of my favourites from that evening. 

Ben Turns Two - Edmonton Family Lifestyle Photographer

I love birthdays. The excitement, the wonder in little eyes, the gathering of friends and family, and of course - the balloons! 

Ben celebrated his second birthday in style.  His extended family even joined us for the first half of his session. Despite having some balloon mishaps and losing a few, we had a lot of fun!

Here are a few of my favourites.
