It was cold. It really was. And crowded. Unexpectedly crowded(if you were unaware that the Grey Cup was happening in our city–it was here, did you know that?). But…they’re so cute!! And, so well dressed!! It made everything go so smoothly!

Waaaaayyyyyy back when I was pregnant with Jack, I took a prenatal class with a midwife in the inner city. The class was small. This couple was in that class. In fact, their baby was the first to be born. We have stayed in touch intermittently through the years…seeing each other occassionally. And, then facebook happened!! Thank goodness for facebook keeping me connected with people. I am well intentioned at maintaining contact with people, but sometimes, life gets busy. And, I learned through facebook that this family had welcomed another child(yay!! she’s so darn cute!!!). And, they learned that I was a family photographer…the rest, as they say, is history.

It was a quick session on a cold day, but I love the way it turned out. Stephen Avenue in the back, the grey cup crowds walking by, and the joy and love that oozes from this family. Such a wonderful afternoon!! (unless you are a Saskatchewan fan…and, who isn’t?)

**A note about their outfits…Aren’t they the best??? Coordinated without matching…coloful, a wonderful mix of pattern and personality. The mom’s sweater is from Bennetton. I asked.

**I am totally blogging out of order. No, no…I’ve created a new order!! It’s called ‘my fancy’…whatever ‘my fancy’ desires ;)

I love the top left image…it’s such a good ‘mom’ image. I also love the baby images(this is the BEST age to photograph your baby). I love the middle one in the series of three the most. It’s like ‘little baby in the big city’ to me ;) I love the middle one of the older daughter as well…so genuine and that wispy hair to the right gets me. Have a wonderful weekend everyone!!!
