Who said headshot sessions had to be boring? When EcoSuperior contacted me to get some updated headshots and imagery for the website we both agreed Waverley Park would be the perfect location. Seeing as how EcoSuperior is all about the environment, having the session outside just seemed right. I set up a little spot in in the shade to get the standard headshots but I also spent a lot of time getting some candids for their website as well. Of course, we did a few group photos too. In just an hours time, we completely updated their photo library.
Read MoreCat + Family Portraits - Centennial Park
My portrait session with Cat and her family today was so much fun. Not only was it foggy out, which is by the best weather ever for any kind of photography. It was equally awesome, that her family was just so much fun. Of course, anytime kids are involved, it’s hard not to have fun. They definitely kept me on my toes, that’s for sure. When they needed to, the kids slowed down for a couple quick poses. It took the promise of skittles to get them to do most things, but whatever works right?
Read MoreShauna + Patrick Family Portraits - Shebandowan
With summer winding down, hopefully not too soon, my latest portrait session took place in Shebandowan at Shauna and Patrick’s camp. I had passed by the area on a number of occasions on my way to Fort Frances but I was super excited photograph there. We were back and forth leading up to the session not knowing if the weather would hold but luckily it did.
Read MoreJamie + Cory Family Portraits - Centennial Park
What can I say about this amazing session. First of all, I absolutely love photographing kids. They just bring an energy that is not only infectious but also inspiring. Sophia and Teagan made me work for so many of the photos but I wouldn’t have had it any other way. They were running, laughing, falling, crying at certain points and just being crazy like kids are. The good thing about it was that it makes for extremely natural photos. I hope I helped tire them out just a little bit for bedtime.
Read MoreAndre + Danielle Family Portraits - Friendship Gardens
I know the heading says Andre and Danielle, but this session was really all about Darius. Since he was born, he’s had a rough go of it, but has always had a smile on his face, even through all the pain. I have know Andre and his family for quite some time now, and when I heard that Darius is going for a very dangerous surgery in August, I offered to capture some family portraits and a short video of everyone. We chose Friendship Gardens as the location and it ended up being the perfect venue.
Read MoreAmy + Family Portraits - Sandy Beach
Amy and her family were in need of some updated family photos and plus her parents were in town so we decided to use Sandy Beach as the backdrop. The kids full of energy so they had me working extra hard this time around, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. It’s amazing how fast kids grow up! I really can’t wait until the next session. :)
Read MoreBaylee + Noah Graduation Night
Anytime I get to do family portraits of my actual family, it’s an added bonus. In this case Noah, my son, and Baylee, his girlfriend, wanted some getting ready photos of Baylee’s Graduation Night. It all took place at her beautiful home out in the country, so it was the perfect backdrop. I was only there for about an hour but it was enough time to capture some moments of her mom doing her hair as well as some outdoor portraits. Baylee looked very pretty and of course Noah was handsome too. They ended up having a really good time that evening at the Graduation Party.
Read MoreAlbany Graduation Night Portraits
Earlier this month I photographed Albany for her official graduation photos. We also made it into a partial family session too. During that shoot she was obviously wearing her graduation gown and the photos turned out amazing. If you haven’t already, make sure you check out my previous posts to see highlights from that session.
Read MoreEden + Chris Family Portraits
I originally photographed Eden and Chris’s Wedding a few years back and then a portrait session a couple years ago as well. It was time for yet another portrait session and I couldn’t wait to see then again. Every time I have photographed them in the past it’s been such a great time. This session was no different. The hour went by so fast I could hardly believe it. I’m so glad the weather held up too, it was perfect overcast and not too hot.
Read MoreHeidi + Rob Family Portraits
I photographed Heidi and Rob’s wedding back in 2016 and it is still one of my favourite weddings ever! When Heidi and Rob contacted me to do some family portraits for them, I simply couldn’t wait to do so. They recently welcomed Alfred to the family so it meant Wallace now had a younger brother to compete with. Upon arriving Alfred did not know what to make of me. I used that to my advantage as I got some really good looks from him. Fast forward about 15 minutes into the session and it was hard to get him to sit still.
Read MoreAmy + Family Cake Smash
I have been lucky enough to be photographing Amy and her family for quite a few years now. I remember doing a cake smash for Jace. Now it was Ellie’s turn and she did not disappoint. Before we got to the cake smash though, we did some family portraits outside. It was quite sunny out, so we found some shade by the tree in their front yard and captured some great moments. Ellie was so calm the entire time. I think she was more confused by me if anything, which worked out perfectly!
Read MoreAlbany + Sophie Graduation Portraits
I have actually been doing a lot of graduation photos as of late and I am looking forward to more in the coming weeks. For this session I actually had two graduates to photograph and both were family, which made it extra special. Sophie is graduating Grade 8 and Albany is graduation high school and off to McMaster next year, which is super exciting. Their parents also joined us for the session so it was also a bit of a family session as well, which was perfect.
